Royal Botania is a Belgian luxury outdoor furniture manufacturer founded in 1992 by Frank Boschman in Wielsbeke, Belgium. The company has built its reputation on producing architecturally refined outdoor furniture and lighting, with all design and engineering conducted in Belgium. Royal Botania distinguishes itself through its integrated approach, offering coordinated collections of furniture, parasols, outdoor lighting, and accessories designed to create cohesive outdoor environments.
The brand's design team includes in-house designers as well as external collaborators such as Kris Van Puyvelde, Erik Lefebvre, and Studio Segers. The aesthetic is characterized by architectural precision, clean lines, and sophisticated material combinations. Royal Botania is notable for its outdoor lighting range, which includes path lights, bollards, wall lights, and integrated furniture lighting, an area where few outdoor furniture brands compete at this level.
Royal Botania's furniture range includes dining tables and chairs, lounge sofas, club chairs, sun loungers, bar furniture, and parasols. The company uses materials including 316 stainless steel (marine grade), teak, powder-coated aluminum, Corian, natural stone, batyline mesh, and outdoor performance fabrics. The use of 316 stainless steel, which offers superior corrosion resistance, is a signature material choice that positions the brand for demanding coastal and marine environments.
Manufacturing and assembly take place at the company's facility in Belgium. Royal Botania distributes through a selective international network of premium outdoor furniture retailers and design professionals, with presence across Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and North America. The brand serves both residential and hospitality markets and has furnished outdoor spaces for luxury hotels, private yachts, and high-end residential developments.
