Accoya wood chosen for Queen Elizabeth II memorial garden benches Regent\u2019s Park project<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Accsys is proud to announce that Accoya wood has been chosen for the benches within the Queen Elizabeth II Memorial Garden at London\u2019s Regent\u2019s Park. The \u00a35 million memorial honours the life of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and reflects her deep, personal appreciation of the outdoors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Accoya wood has been selected as the material of choice for a central circular bench and six linear benches due to its exceptional durability and stability in outdoor environments. With a proven above\u2011ground lifespan of 50 years, it is ideally suited to a permanent public memorial, capable of withstanding year\u2011round use and changing weather conditions while remaining aesthetically pleasing and low maintenance over time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The memorial garden has been designed by designer and manufacturer Millimetre, who worked closely with HTA Design and The Royal Parks to develop, manufacture, and install the seating. Millimetre<\/a> has extensive experience of working with Accoya, having previously crafted Accoya seating for the Strand in London, and are currently working on Accoya structures for the Parkinson\u2019s UK garden at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The memorial garden landscaping design balances heavy public use with long-term sustainability. Accoya\u2019s resistance to decay and low maintenance requirements align with this approach, helping ensure the benches, which provide seating for up to 75 people, continue to perform and age gracefully for decades.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Karn Sandilands, Director at Millimetre, said, \u201cFor a memorial like this, longevity is essential, it\u2019s about creating something that will endure as a lasting tribute to HM the Queen\u2019s life and legacy. Accoya allows us to make design choices with confidence, knowing the material will perform over the long term while retaining a timeless, natural quality that feels entirely appropriate to the setting.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Laura Keily, Head of Marketing at Accsys, added, \u201cIt\u2019s an honour for Accoya to be part of the Queen Elizabeth II Memorial Garden. We\u2019re seeing good traction for Accoya in landscaping applications, its performance in busy public spaces makes it particularly well suited to environments where quality, comfort and durability must be maintained year after year.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
