Mental health environments ask a lot of furniture. It needs to be safe for people in acute distress. It needs to withstand daily use in demanding clinical settings. It needs to meet strict infection control requirements. And it needs to feel like a place of care, not a place of containment.
Abecca has a history of designing and manufacturing anti-ligature furniture for mental health units across New Zealand and Australia. Everything we make is built from solid foam with no metal components and no wooden frames. Anti-ligature performance is not a feature added to our furniture. It is a direct consequence of how it is made.
Our furniture is used in acute inpatient units, psychiatric intensive care units, low-secure environments, child and adolescent mental health units, and community mental health facilities. Trusted by 98% of mental health units in New Zealand.
Why solid foam construction matters
Conventional furniture modified for anti-ligature compliance still contains the hard components and fixings that create risk. Abecca furniture starts with a different premise entirely. No metal. No wood. No exposed fixings. The result is furniture that is genuinely safe, not just compliant.
Built for infection control
Every Armadillo® piece is fully waterproof and finished in our seam-free LimberShield® proprietary finish, with no seams or gaps for liquid or contaminants to enter. Designed to withstand hospital-grade cleaning protocols, day after day.
Customisable to your environment
Custom sizes, configurations, and colour options available on request. Share your floor plan and brief and our in-house team will specify the right solution for your space.
With more than 70 years of manufacturing experience, Abecca designs and builds furniture for the environments that demand the most. There’s a reason facilities across New Zealand, Australia and beyond choose Abecca.
