New Zealand Made

Have a few questions about MAKO gear? We’ve put together a quick FAQ to help you understand how we build our furniture, what it’s made from and how to look after it. If there’s something we haven’t covered, flick us a message and we’ll get you sorted!

Are MAKO products made in New Zealand?

Yes! All of our products are constructed in Rotorua, New Zealand at ZORB Rotorua! In fact, if you want to see our products in action, you can come down to ZORB and see how chairs and bar leaners at The VENUE @ ZORB and our benches in the ZORB waiting area.

What type of wood are MAKO products constructed with?

We use both New Zealand-grown redwood and pine. Both of these woods, paired with the finishes that we use, provide excellent weather resistance!
