Vondom Outdoor Furniture

Vondom is a Spanish brand of designer outdoor furniture, founded in 2008 in Beneixida, in the province of Valencia. It designs, manufactures and distributes high-end outdoor furniture, planters and lighting, always from its production site in the Valencia region.

The brand's identity rests on a strong design culture: Vondom works with internationally renowned designers and architects, including Fabio Novembre, Stefano Giovannoni, Eugeni Quitllet, Ora Ïto, Ross Lovegrove, Karim Rashid and Javier Mariscal. Each collection thus becomes a recognisable piece, halfway between functional furniture and sculptural object.

Historically associated with rotomoulded polyethylene, the brand has considerably broadened its range of materials in recent years. Glass fibre reinforced injection-moulded polypropylene, produced by gas-assisted injection, allows slimmer, more dynamic pieces, such as the Milos and Suave collections. Vondom also develops ranges in powder-coated aluminium, wood (ash, iroko, teak), concrete, polycarbonate and PMMA, as well as HPL Solid Core tabletops designed for intensive use. This diversification now makes it possible to put together a complete project, from the sun lounger to the light up bar, with a single, consistent aesthetic.

Verano Design has been distributing Vondom collections in France for several years. As an official partner of the brand, we work directly with the teams in Beneixida: visits to the Valencia showroom by appointment for professionals, project pricing, lead times confirmed at the source and technical support on hotel projects.

Vondom is a Spanish manufacturer of designer outdoor furniture, planters and lighting, based in Beneixida near Valencia. All production takes place in Europe, in Spain, at the brand's historic site.

The catalogue covers every need of an outdoor space: modular garden sofas and armchairs, chairs, sun loungers and outdoor daybeds, dining tables and coffee tables, outdoor bars and bar counters, stools, XXL plant pots and planters, outdoor rugs, parasols and structures, as well as a complete range of light up LED furniture.

Vondom is present in more than 120 countries and has its own showrooms in Valencia, Mexico City, Cancún, Miami, Los Angeles, New York, Toronto and Shanghai. The brand exhibits every year at the leading international design and outdoor living fairs, and its collections furnish top-tier hotels, beach clubs, rooftops and resorts around the world.

This is precisely the standard that Verano Design makes available to French hospitality professionals (hotels, restaurants and cafés) as well as to discerning private clients. Our references include projects for Marriott, Accor, Nikki Beach and Club Med.

Vondom is known for its sculptural outdoor furniture and its light up LED collections. The brand has established an instantly recognisable formal language, somewhere between industrial design and contemporary art piece.

Its reputation rests on four pillars:

• Collaborations with world-class designers, which give each collection its own signature rather than a uniform house style.
• Multi-material industrial expertise: rotomoulding of polyethylene, gas-assisted injection of glass fibre reinforced polypropylene, cold injection of polyurethane over a metal core, and oven-cured powder-coated aluminium.
• Light up furniture, with rechargeable or mains-powered ranges that turn furniture into a light source at nightfall.
• Colour, with an extensive palette of matt, high-gloss lacquered and illuminating finishes that makes it possible to customise an entire project.

Yes. All the materials Vondom uses are designed for permanent outdoor exposure, including by the sea. Their characteristics do, however, vary from one material to another, and a few seasonal precautions noticeably extend the life of the pieces.

Rotomoulded polyethylene

One-piece structure, coloured throughout, with no paint to chip on the basic finishes. UV-resistant treatment, unaffected by rain, frost and salt spray. Its light weight and impact resistance make it the material of choice for high-traffic areas. It can stay outdoors all year round. For plant pots and planters, empty any standing water before a prolonged period of frost.

Glass fibre reinforced injection-moulded polypropylene

Produced by gas-assisted injection. This thermoplastic polymer withstands high temperatures, up to around 150 °C, without deforming or degrading. It allows slimmer sections and stackable seating while retaining excellent mechanical strength. Stable outdoors all year round, with no particular maintenance required.

Aluminium

A low-density metal, highly resistant to corrosion and impact, and 100% recyclable. Vondom uses two alloys, AISI12 (EN AC-44100) for casting and 6060 (AlMgSi) for profiles, both finished with oven-cured epoxy paint. This powder-coated finish ensures durability in marine environments. A colour touch-up kit is available to treat any impact locally and prevent the onset of oxidation.

HPL Solid Core tabletops

A composite of cellulose and compressed phenolic resins, developed for the contract and hospitality sector. Lightweight, unaffected by water, alcohol and organic solvents, and resistant to scratches and thermal shock. It is the most robust solution in the catalogue for table tops on restaurant terraces. No winter protection required.

Wood (ash, iroko, teak)

Natural species suited to outdoor use. Teak naturally turns grey over time under UV light, an aesthetic rather than structural change. A teak cleaner followed by a dedicated oil restores the original shade once or twice a year, depending on exposure.

Fabrics and cushions

Outdoor fabrics treated to be stain-resistant and water-repellent, and resistant to UV, cold and mould. They can handle occasional rain, but bringing them in or covering them out of season and in prolonged wet weather remains the best guarantee of longevity.

Light up modules

Rechargeable versions (LED battery) should be stored under cover out of season. Low-voltage mains-powered versions can stay in place, provided the protection rating stated on the product page is respected. Explore the whole range in our selection of light up furniture.

In most cases, lukewarm water, a mild soap and a soft cloth are all you need. No abrasive products, no solvents and no pressure washer on lacquered surfaces.

• Polyethylene and polypropylene, matt finish: soapy water, non-abrasive sponge, rinse with clean water. Avoid: solvents, acetone, wire brushes.
• High-gloss lacquered finish: damp microfibre cloth, non-abrasive product for lacquered surfaces. Avoid: scouring sponges, alcohol-based products.
• Powder-coated aluminium: soapy water, dry with a soft cloth. Avoid: acidic or chlorinated products, pressure washers.
• HPL Solid Core tabletop: soapy water or an ordinary household detergent, stubborn stains with household alcohol. Avoid: mechanical abrasives.
• Wood (teak, iroko, ash): gentle brushing along the grain, soapy water, teak cleaner and oil once or twice a year. Avoid: aggressive sanding, high pressure.
• Fabrics and cushions: regular vacuuming, washing in lukewarm soapy water, drying flat in the shade. Avoid: tumble dryers, bleach, ironing.
• Polycarbonate and PMMA: microfibre cloth and soapy water only. Avoid: any solvent, which causes clouding or micro-cracks.

Recommended frequency: a thorough clean at the start and end of the season, plus a rinse with clean water after each episode of sand-laden wind or salt spray. By the sea, a monthly rinse with fresh water is enough to prevent any build-up.
