K-Bana modular pergola Big winner: Outdoor Furniture Category
The Vesta Awards had several categories such as home products, outdoor products, and a special award category. In the category of outdoor products, you can find the section of outdoor furniture.
Azenco was the big winner of this section, with its innovative K-Bana modular pergola design. This modular design surprised the judges who appreciated the creativity and high-quality standards that meet the needs of the market.
The K-Bana pergola design was without a doubt the center of attention. Thanks to its incredible versatility the K-Bana seduced the attendees as well as the judges.
