BANWOOD

BACKGROUND

Banwood is a family-owned lifestyle brand with a passion for creating high-end cycling products for children. Their core values lie in safety, high quality and timeless design. The founders Juan Manuel Torralvo Castro and Frida Jonsby met in Germany, the home of quality and safety, where they discovered that Frida’s eye for design and Juan’s family history of manufacturing made a great match. The idea of Banwood occurred from a mutual interest in bikes and the idea of how to implement that into something different.

THE DESIGN

Banwood create contemporary designs with a touch of mid-century charm. Influenced by Scandinavian design, the keywords throughout the creative process are simplicity, minimalism and functionality. The Bicycle for Kids are designed in rustic and durable high- end materials. The frame is made of steel and the handlebar of aluminium. The saddle and grips are made of high end faux leather, a material suitable for all round weathers and easy to wipe off. Detachable wicker basket in rattan for packing the essentials in for a day’s adventure.

Within each phase, from designing and manufacturing to delivery and use, Banwood pays close attention to each step it takes to offer a great bike experience. Banwood bikes with or without pedals are tested rigorously to fulfil strict safety and quality standards as well as the brand’s own high expectations.
