By supporting architects, developers, and contractors with hands–on guidance, from early concept to project delivery, services at FRONT go beyond supply. Technical documentation, product samples, CPD presentations, and custom material advice are available to help teams confidently implement circular choices.

Mimmik Tile: the first tile ever grown with the help of bacteria. Traditional cement production accounts for 8% of global Co2 emissions. Concrete is the second–most–consumed material in the world after water. Without radical change, the way we build our infrastructure will continue to undermine a healthy and safe future. Inspired by coral, one of nature’s most durable structures, this technology uses bacteria to bind carbon and calcium into a biologically formed marble material. Within two days, Mimmik Tiles grow into strong, durable floor tiles. It's a planet–friendly alternative to traditional cement that reduces CO₂ emissions by at least 60%. Mimmik Tile is developed and produced by Biomason.

Gemla is a contemporary furniture maker—and always has been. Yet at the same time, they verge on being an anachronism. Always have. The company was founded in 1861, specialising in steam–bent furniture. It’s steam that makes bentwood furniture so exceptionally durable, yet graceful. On the factory floor, guided by the knowledge of craft, the brand meets patience, care and sustainability, passed down through generations. It’s no coincidence that its pieces are in high demand for hotels and restaurants—settings that require equal parts aesthetics and durability.

Layers of Light creates sculptural wall lamps where art and precise engineered illumination merge. Each piece is built from carefully calculated layers of light, transforming the wall into a composition of depth, shadow, and reflection. Inspired by natural light phenomena, the work evokes a sensory response — light that can be felt as much as seen. These pieces replace traditional wall art while fundamentally reshaping the atmosphere of a space.
