Why Choose SFA

Employing some 40 specialist designers in the practice has created a wide ranging portfolio from new cities and institutions to urban design works and small scale civic artefacts and accessories. It enjoys the reputation of being one of Australia’s outstanding design consultancies.
2. Experience
For almost 40 years, SFA has been fine-tuning the craftsmanship and production of street furniture. Being the first company to develop the Australian street furniture industry, there is no question that SFA is a market leader. With over 320 designed parts, five offices, three factories, a design studio, and an extensive portfolio of both local and international projects, SFA has come a long way.
3. Product Quality
Quality is a primary focus at SFA. As a rule, SFA sources the highest grade of materials and finishes. Quality control is maintained through in-house assembly, and technical improvements are made through regular product and process assessments. All SFA products undergo a lengthy phase of prototyping and testing prior to production.
4. Cast Aluminium Specialists
SFA has over 200 cast parts produced by manufacturing processes such as sand-casting, gravity die casting and pressure die casting.
The robust yet lightweight aspect of cast aluminium provides a clear advantage over steel. Aluminium is naturally corrosion resistant, recyclable and allows for various finishes such as bright polish and powder-coating.

Quality is never compromised at SFA. Costs are sensibly reduced through simple assembly whilst maintaining the use of premium materials.

With hundreds of product variations, there is plenty of choice. Additionally, SFA products are carefully designed so that they visually match in groups known as “families”
