Replique, the provider of a secure 3D printing platform, and Siena Garden, the renowned German garden furniture brand, continue their joint commitment to sustainability with a great achievement.

Foot caps like these enable you to repair garden chairs and keep them in their best condition. Original foot cap on the left, 3D-printed redesigned foot cap on the right.

The seamless integration of Replique's 3D printing platform allows spare parts to be produced on-demand and locally, eliminating excessive inventory and avoiding huge minimum order quantities.

This not only reduces costs for Siena Garden, it also enhances customer satisfaction with improved aftermarket services. In addition to foot caps, the Siena Garden web shop offers other repair parts, such as handles, connecting and moving parts, designed for Holywood swings and garden loungers. Without the technology, these spare parts would remain unavailable, leaving garden furniture looking worn or thrown away.
