Steel has unique characteristics when it is stretched and shaped since it remains strong. It provides strength to everything from skyscrapers and cars to bed frames and outdoor furniture. The steel industry is moving in the direction of more energy-efficient production and stronger steel qualities. It doesn’t lose any of its properties when recycled and today steel is one of the most recycled materials in the world.

My idea with BEKANT was to make a storage series that suits today’s flexible, versatile and dynamic working environments. It’s furniture that is easy to move around and use in different ways, while being stable, robust and meeting all the demands of efficient storage. As we work in a more fluid way, the boundaries between work and the home are also becoming less clear – so BEKANT is naturally just as suitable to use in the home as at the office.
