Company Profile:
POPP designs, manufactures and supplies permanent and weatherproof outdoor table tennis tables and innovative place making structures including furniture. The company has been in operation since 2010 and offers a design-led approach to outdoor recreation, public furniture and art. Each of the designed products seeks to make better outdoor and open spaces through social interaction, informal recreation and art.
POPP’s flagship product is a permanent, weatherproof and indestructible 700kg steel outdoor ping pong table. Partnering with local governments, schools, universities and property developers, POPP tailors activation strategies around its products to create better, more engaging, interactive community places; often the company will work with artists to transform each table into a unique, original piece of (interactive) public art – aptly coining the phrase 'recreart’.
Products and Services:
POPP is the designer, manufacturer and supplier of its range of products, including its outdoor table tennis tables. The company takes a hands-on approach to every step of the process from the high standards of product manufacture to the delivery of its products to site (and installation as required) to the commissioning of artists and the application of artwork. POPP has also been engaged for custom projects for clients who have wanted a ‘unique design edge’.
