See You At Civenex

Civenex-700

The Aria Seating System, PowerMe™ charging tables and eBins will be on show at Street Furniture Australia’s exhibit, Stand C069, next month at Civenex.

The infrastructure expo takes place on March 14-15, 2019 at the Hordern Pavilion in Sydney. It is co-located with the Sydney Build Expo.

Visit our stand to meet our team and see how the modular Aria suite works, test our new augmented reality app, charge your phone and laptop at the PowerMe™ Tables and explore the eBin Smartsensor dashboard to learn how it can save you money.

Aria and Augmented Reality

The Aria Seating System is a modular kit of parts that allows designers to create custom configurations. Tailor site-specific settings for the community with opportunities to work, dine and socialise outdoors.

Aria includes one, two and three-seater benches and seats, 180, 90 and 45 degree connectors, and armrests. See how they connect to make interesting shapes such as Ring, Curved, S and C-Shapes, Back to Back and Transit Seats.

Drag-and-drop each module virtually with our new Build ARIA augmented reality app on a phone or tablet at Civenex, and email yourself a screenshot of your creation.

Recharge Your Battery with PowerMe™

PowerMe™ is a charging table that integrates with a range of Street Furniture Australia seats, including the Aria System, so you can sit back, relax and recharge. We’ve all been caught without battery: PowerMe provides peace of mind in public spaces.

The side table features wireless induction and usb ports for phones, and power outlets for laptops – with a modular design that is simple to upgrade as technology evolves. The clamshell housing makes for easy maintenance, with space for optional WiFi and sensors. And it’s a great place to rest your coffee.

Running low on battery during the expo? Visit our stand to test out PowerMe and recharge your devices wirelessly or via USB cable and GPO power points.

Save With Escola eBin

Escola eBins are an easy, low-risk way to try smart technology in your area. They show where bins are, and how full at all times – to help your team avoid overflowing, reduced wasted trips to empty bins, reduce carbon footprint and save money.

The eBin uses an ultrasonic Smartsensor to monitor the fill level. Once activated, you can login to your waste dashboard on your phone or laptop to check your bins, plan a route for efficient collection and track your waste analytics over time.

eBin is also fitted with a temperature sensor to detect fires – commonly caused by cigarettes. The bin sends any fire alerts straight to your computer and mobile.

Street Furniture Australia’s integrated eBin design hides the sensor discretely under the roof, so the public, and vandals, cannot see it, for peace of mind.

This product is ideal for metro and regional Councils, schools and campuses, shopping centres, transport stops, and business and residential estates.

Every eBin comes with 12 months of access to the app, and if you’re happy with the one-year trial, the contract is easily extended directly with Smartsensor.
