Materials
The Chelsea range of street furniture is made from Iroko (Chlorophora excelsa) sourced from West Africa. This highly-durable hardwood has an attractive grain that will withstand the weather all year round. The company is particularly careful to buy timber from countries belonging to the International Tropical Timber Organisation, all of which have accepted ITTO guidelines for the sustainable production of tropical timber.
Purchasing Branson Leisure's products ensures that the timber resource retains an economic value, providing an incentive to replant, manage and protect for the future.
Services
Branson offers a UK-wide installation service for all of its street furniture.
