Fundició Dúctil Benito was created in 1992, the year when the city of Barcelona hosted the Olympic Games. It was such an important year for this city, its people and so many around the world, that Fundicio  Ductil Benito decided to name its first bench, Barcino, as a tribute to the capital of  Catalonia. The company’s portfolio gradually expanded over the years to reach a complete offer of Urban Equipment.

The lean methodology in our warehouse has been a step forward. It consists in eliminating those processes that are absorbing resources but are not creating any additional value. The objective is meeting the target of same-day/next-day deliveries.

Since 2001 BENITO holds ISO 9001, in addition to specific approvals and quality and technical certificates for different countries.

Within the quality guarantees that an organization such as BVQI, FSC, PEFC, AENOR, TÜV, Applus, UL or IAC already provides and its strict security parameters, we must add as well our goal to offer products made of materials with high durability and low maintenance.

The urban elements installed on public spaces are not chosen by their citizens, who are actually the users and who will finally enjoy them. Rather it depends on the criteria of the person who specifies it on a scheme.

We know that this is not an easy task for the specifiers and that is why we also try to guarantee that they have made a good choice, because at BENITO before launching a new bench on the market we run a pilot among citizens.

In addition to the experienced in-house team, there are collaborations with renowned professionals, who bring elegance, ingenuity, personality, and identity.

There is a need to start ensuring today that urban areas will be inclusive, safe, sustainable, and resilient.
