Corrections environments place the most demanding requirements on furniture of any setting. Furniture must resist misuse and mishandling. It must eliminate ligature risk across every surface and profile. It must withstand rigorous cleaning. And it must do all of this across years of continuous use in environments that test everything.
Abecca has been supplying corrections facilities across New Zealand and Australia for many years. Our furniture is currently in use in 95% of New Zealand prisons. We understand the operational, clinical, and procurement requirements of corrections environments, and we manufacture specifically to meet them.
Our furniture is built from solid foam with no metal components and no wooden frames. No joints to work loose. No fixings to fail. No seams that can be opened. Fully anti-ligature by construction, not by modification.
Built to the standards corrections facilities require
All Abecca furniture meets BS 5852: 2006 and BS7177: 2008 fire retardancy standards, as specified by NZ Corrections and referenced in Australian corrections tender documentation. Our mattress range additionally meets BS7177: 2008 Crib 7 for high-risk sleeping environments. Fire certification available on request.
Engineered so that if thrown, it causes no harm
Our furniture is substantial enough to resist casual mishandling. Single chairs weigh between 16 and 21 kilograms. Couches exceed 30 kilograms. Tables start at 25 kilograms. And every piece is engineered so that in the rare event it is thrown, it causes no harm to people or property. Watch the test: abeccadesign.com/video/window-throw-armadillo/
