Outdoor Barbecue and Cooking Preparation
The Spoga + Gafa 2024 exhibition included a garden-based barbecue display featuring multiple vendors. To streamline barbecue and outdoor cooking operations, hosts require a platform with ample storage and food preparation space. Otherwise, they risk dumping proteins, vegetables, and tools on the ground.
Enter Keter’s durable wheeled outdoor kitchen cart. Hosts can load this sturdy cart in the kitchen before easily transporting it to the cooking site. The cart also contains plenty of storage space for serving ware, utensils, and other “must have” outdoor cooking accessories. Keter’s outdoor kitchen carts are available in two neutral colors. A wheeled patio beverage cart holds those all-important iced beverages for hot summer days.
Raised Garden Beds
The Spoga + Gafa exhibition showcased emerging gardening trends and innovative products. Modular solutions, such as raised bed systems, enable gardeners to maximize their available space. Ideal for small patio and balcony gardening, raised beds also add extra capacity to an existing garden.
Keter’s popular garden boxes feature a striking wood and rattan look. Unlike wooden boxes, however, Keter’s garden boxes won’t fade, rot, or warp in often-harsh outdoor conditions. Reinforced metal construction ensures the boxes retain their structural integrity.
Equally importantly, Keter’s garden boxes promote warmer soil, improved drainage, and a more hostile environment for weed growth. Available in three sizes and two colors, these versatile garden boxes will fit comfortably into any garden setting.
