Yellowbox Collective joins Street Furniture Australia US partners
Street Furniture Australia is excited to announce that Yellowbox Collective will represent our products in South Jersey, Delaware and Pennsylvania in the US.
Yellowbox Collective, LLC is a personalised independent manufacturer’s representative that provides tailored solutions to design firms, dealers, development groups and end-users from a curated portfolio of brands, based on project budget and goals.
Principal of Yellowbox Collective, LLC, Melanie Tantillo, says, “I am thrilled to be partnering with Street Furniture Australia. As an established site furnishings manufacturer with offerings in every category, designers can look to Street Furniture Australia for a fresh perspective while being reassured that the products will meet the demands of the US market.
“At this time in the US designers are uninspired, working with the same US brands they always have – but designers in general don’t like to default to what’s been done, they want to push boundaries. The color and material choice for example that Street Furniture Australia offers – such as Wood Without Worry – is far beyond humdrum options we see from manufacturers in the US. I also see demand for innovative products like the ChillOUT Tree; I have no doubt this shelter product will be specified for project delivery when it becomes available to the US market in coming years.
“Additionally as an Australian-American it means a lot to be able to offer furniture from my home country.”
Export Business Development Manager, Juanita Marlowe, says, “We are excited to have a seasoned professional in Melanie and Yellowbox Collective to inform clients about Street Furniture Australia in these new US regions.
“Melanie comes to us with more than 22 years of experience in the design and architecture world, and has her hand in a collection of highly curated products that now include Street Furniture Australia. Her experience working with landscape architects within the territory is vast.”
Products continue to be made-to-order at the Street Furniture Australia factory in Sydney, Australia, and shipped to the United States.
Successful products are often followed by copycats. Over the past year we have become aware of an increase in reproductions of the Linea range attempting to create a similar aesthetic at a lower price. This can compromise the overall durability and environmental credentials of projects being delivered, affect ongoing maintenance requirements, and in some instances pose a risk of injury to the public. The design of Linea is deceptively simple while delivering exceptional attention to detail. Details matter not only for beauty, but also for providing durability, and safety, that will last decades. Linea strictly uses the highest quality and sustainable materials, has passed rigorous strength tests, and is designed for longevity, with easily replaceable parts. The product range is the result of hundreds of hours of research and development …
Street Furniture Australia’s entire product range and manufacturing operation has received carbon neutral certification through Climate Active™. Achieving carbon neutral certification marks a significant milestone in our operation and the culmination of a four year long process of detailed measurement and analysis. Climate Active™ is the only Australian government-backed carbon neutral certification programme for businesses to measure, reduce, and offsets their carbon emissions. It is one of the most rigorous carbon-neutral programs in the world. An approved Emissions Reduction Strategy (ERS) is central to achieving certification through Climate Active. Street Furniture Australia has elected to use SBTi validated science-based targets to ensure their ERS is meaningful and aligns with the 2015 Paris Agreement – to limit global temperature rises to 1.5℃ above pre-industrial levels. For those emissions that can’t be …
