The workshop
A workshop where
form meets steel.
FRANBEST grew from a simple conviction: a product for the garden should outlast the fashion for it. So we do everything ourselves – from the drawing to the last layer of coating – in Karczew, 25 km from central Warsaw.
- Under one roof
- Design, punching, folding and powder coating – nothing is outsourced
- Three metals
- Powder-coated aluminium, Corten steel, mirror-polished stainless steel
- For a single place
- Every form from the collection also in your size and colour
How we work
From a sheet of steel
to a form in the garden.
CNC punching
Every form is punched from the sheet in-house – precisely and repeatably, also in a size that exists only in your garden.
Bending
A press brake gives the sheet its form. Straight edges and clean corners are checked by hand, not just by the ruler.
Powder coating
An oven-baked RAL coating – a deep matt that looks the same after years of rain and sun as on day one.
Materials and finishes
Three metals.
One precision.
Every sheet passes through our hands at each stage of production — from punching and precise folding to surface finishing. That is why we know our products inside out and how they will behave for years.
Corten
Steel that develops its own noble patina, growing deeper and warmer with every season – from fiery rust to dark brown.
Stainless steel
Polished to a mirror. It doubles the greenery and gathers the sky and the evening light – the Mirror collection.
Aluminium
Light and rust-free, powder-coated in RAL colours – the deep matt of anthracite, graphite, concrete or black. An oven-baked finish that looks the same after years of rain and sun as on day one.
Every product is inspected before it leaves the workshop – from sheet thickness to the evenness of the coating.
Detail that matters
We care about what the photo does not show: the reinforced planter base, a corner with no sharp edge, panels assembled without welding, a coating chosen for the place the product will stand in.
For a single place
Beyond the collection we design forms to measure – planters for a specific terrace, panels of unusual height, products for architects’ and landscape studios’ projects.
Workshop · Karczew
Made
in-house.
FRANBEST is a workshop in Karczew near Warsaw. We design, punch, fold and powder-coat under one roof – which is why we can answer an unusual size and look after every detail.
