AERO and VACANTE in Mémora

It is not the first time that Mémora Funeral Home Group trust Sellex's benches as seating for their funeral homes and visiting rooms. In fact, we will find AERO Bench in the chapels of some of their funeral homes, like the one in Errenteria (Basque Country) or those of Collserola and Les Corts, in Barcelone.

Another design we will see at the funeral homes of Mémora Group is VACANTE Bench, a suitable seating for this kind of facilities as it can be provided with a kneeler as accessory. This model has been placed in the funeral homes of Torroella de Montgri and L'Hospitalet, among others.
