Kremen is a Slovenia-based company that has been producing street furniture, concrete accessories, and garden equipment for over 30 years. The company is committed to using natural materials and raw materials that are environmentally friendly and recyclable in the production of its products. Among the materials used in the collections are wood such as Siberian larch, fir, or tropical wood, but concrete is the main feature of the collections. Made with marble and stone aggregates from Slovenian, Italian, and Austrian quarries, the concrete production practices are environmentally friendly, as demonstrated by the ISO 14001 certification. Kremen uses natural stone that is not treated with chemicals, so the natural color of the stone can be admired in the finished product. The concrete elements are made using molds and high-frequency vibration devices to achieve a uniform distribution of fresh concrete. The concrete is of high quality, resistant to weathering, aging, and frost damage. In tests, it achieves a compressive strength of over 60 MPa. It can be cleaned with a pressure washer. All concrete parts are treated with a water-repellent protective coating, which also prevents the accumulation of dirt and moss.
Kremen's flagship collection is Bien, a line designed to promote well-being and enhance public spaces with its soft lines. It can be combined with a table, and nearby you can place a fountain, a waste bin, a recycling container, a bike rack, a traffic barrier, and planters available in various models. The Bien elements are made with durable materials. High-strength concrete, quality wood, and galvanized steel ensure durability and resistance to weather conditions. The hidden joints and reinforced exposed parts will also withstand damage from vandalism. The modern yet timeless aesthetic easily integrates into environments with different architectural styles.
