Mitchell Bink Concrete Design is a local Canberra business that is passionate about providing not only beautiful but functional concrete benchtops and furniture to Canberra, Sydney and the surrounding regions.

We specialise in one-off innovative products that enhance outdoor and indoor environments. With creative skills passed down through three family generations specialising in precast concrete in the Canberra region for over 55 years.

Our business includes a talented team who specialise in Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete (GFRC) and are passionate about bringing out the true natural beauty of concrete.

We are privileged to have worked with some of Canberra’s leading architects and designers having our work featured in multiple award winning homes and commercial spaces.

At Mitchell Bink Concrete Design, we offer quality products, all of which have a unique style and presentation as well as a freedom to design pieces that suit individual needs.

Mitchell Bink Concrete Design specialises in Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete (GFRC or GRC) with all products being manufactured from our workshop in Hume, Canberra.

What is GFRC?

In short, GFRC consists of cement, fine aggregate, acrylic co-polymer, water and glass fibers.

Why GFRC?

GFRC has been used for the past 30 years by decorative concrete artisans who have discovered the benefits of GFRC.

It gives much higher flexural and tensile strengths than normal concrete, this enables us to apply it to a wide range of requests.

GFRC is a lightweight, durable material that can be cast into kitchen benchtops, commercial countertops, bathroom vanities, splash backs, fireplace surrounds, wall facade panels and more. As our products are a third of the weight of standard concrete no reinforcement is required to your floors or cabinetry.

Have you seen similar concrete products elsewhere wondering if it’s the same thing? Spill something on it like coffee or red wine and see what happens to the surface. We frequently get calls from people asking if we are able to ‘fix’ their concrete product they bought from a well known hardware store, furniture store, or something their builder or their polished concrete floor specialist attempted to do.

It takes some time for anyone to be proficient with GFRC. At Mitchell Bink Concrete Design, since 2010 we have been solely focused on GFRC as a benchtop surface and we have a team equipped with the skill set to produce GFRC at the highest standard.

Concrete in general, is a beautiful product to use throughout your home. The concrete we produce has a personal touch which can’t be replicated, no two pieces are ever exactly the same. We believe that the aesthetic of concrete is conductive to a positive and warm feeling inside any environment, the beauty of concrete creates a talking point for anyone that enters your home.

All of our products are crafted by hand and tailored to individual client’s requirements. Each piece is unique in its finish.

Indoor and outdoor concrete kitchen benchtops along with bathroom vanities are a more common request but concrete is also considered a great alternative for wall panel facades, splash backs, fireplace hearths, fire place surrounds and more.

These are only some of the possibilities and we encourage our clients to think outside the box.

We have completed projects in all of the below areas:

Concrete furniture is increasingly finding its way into our homes, office’s, commercial spaces and outdoor entertaining areas. Ideal for not only the indoors but also outdoor spaces. Concrete is a great alternative with its beauty and longevity.

Tables are a popular request and for good reason, concrete will not only give a lustrous and current expression but also a great hardwearing surface. Timber or steel may not be the best table top surface but are beautiful products in their own right. This is why we love to incorporate them into nearly all of our table designs.

We have extremely talented metal fabricators and woodworkers that we work with closely to provide our clients with not only the highest quality furniture but also a product made locally in the Canberra region.

If you have something in mind, there is a good chance we would be able to work in closely with you to provide you with the piece of furniture you envision.

The possibilities are endless.

The concrete we produce at Mitchell Bink Concrete Design is extremely versatile. Not only have we provided our clients with concrete tables but also:
