CIVARO · Public Realm · NZ + International

A public-realm product platform for streets, parks, recreation spaces and civic projects.

CIVARO is Apollo NZ Global's public-realm pathway for councils, developers, schools, resorts, transport hubs and commercial precincts in New Zealand and international markets. The six collection directions — CIVARO Urban, Coastal, Park, Transit, Heritage and Contemporary — organise product selection around place and application rather than a generic catalogue.

Quick project answers

What is CIVARO and how should a public-realm project be briefed?

CIVARO brings Apollo's public-realm pathways into one place. The collection direction helps define the setting, while the final product package is built around users, exposure, maintenance and the project team's local responsibilities.
01

What is CIVARO?

CIVARO is Apollo NZ Global's public-realm and civic-infrastructure platform for streets, parks, recreation areas, transport environments, resorts, schools and mixed-use developments. It organises products around the place and application rather than a generic furniture catalogue.

02

What product families can sit inside a CIVARO project?

The platform can bring together street furniture and civic amenities, shelters, shade, recreation systems, sports infrastructure, utility products, weathering-steel elements and other public-space products where they fit the actual brief.

03

What information should Apollo receive for a public-realm project?

Provide the site type and location, intended users, drawings or layout where available, quantities, preferred materials or finishes, exposure, maintenance expectations, accessibility considerations, programme and delivery destination.

04

Does Apollo design or install the public realm?

Apollo is supply-only. Public-space design, civil and structural engineering, accessibility design, foundations, installation, planning approvals and statutory compliance remain with the appointed project team unless a verified product-specific scope expressly states otherwise.

05

Can CIVARO be supplied for international projects?

Yes. Suitable CIVARO product pathways can be reviewed for international projects, with materials, finishes, packaging, freight, documentation and maintenance assumptions checked against the actual destination and environment.

CIVARO product systems

Build the public realm as a coordinated system.

Choose individual product families or combine them into one project package. Exact specifications are released only when supported by the selected product evidence.

Specifier evidence checklist

Confirm the exact CIVARO Public-Realm Systems project evidence before release.

Use this checklist to turn an early product choice into a project-ready brief. Only exact registered evidence should be relied on for specification, tender or order.

01

Application & use

Confirm: Intended users / buyers: schools-education · councils-public-realm · commercial-development. Confirm the actual application, operating intensity and project outcome.

Boundary: A product-category match is not a final suitability confirmation.

02

Site & environment

Confirm: Review outdoor plus wind, rain, heat, UV, salt, drainage and other destination conditions that apply.

Boundary: Environmental performance claims must match the exact selected system and current evidence.

03

Configuration & dimensions

Confirm: Confirm configuration: project-reviewed, together with dimensions, quantities, interfaces and required options.

Boundary: Do not infer available sizes, spans, loads or options from representative imagery.

04

Materials, finishes & maintenance

Confirm: Confirm material, finish, corrosion, cleaning, maintenance and replacement requirements.

Boundary: Material suitability can change with exposure, assemblies and maintenance conditions.

05

Technical evidence

Confirm: Request current configuration-specific technical information before specification, tender or order.

Boundary: CAD, shop drawings, structural calculations, certificates and testing are included only where they exist for the exact system and are expressly identified.

06

Drawings & submittals

Confirm: No controlled drawing record is currently centralised for this pathway. Request the exact drawing, fixing detail, shop-drawing scope or submittal information required for the project.

Boundary: A brochure, website diagram or representative image is not a fabrication, installation or engineering drawing.

07

Market & destination

Confirm: This product has an explicit Apollo market-priority record. Confirm destination-specific standards, climate, freight, documentation and local compliance separately.

Boundary: Market priority is not evidence of code compliance, certification, structural suitability or installation approval in that destination.

08

Tender & procurement wording

Confirm: State the exact product pathway, configuration, dimensions, material / finish, required evidence, supplied scope, exclusions, delivery point and local responsibilities in the project schedule.

Boundary: Do not turn representative website wording, unverified supplier claims or another configuration's test data into a project compliance clause.

09

Project interface & delivery

Confirm: Confirm destination, receiving point, unloading, local contractor, foundations / supports, services, installation responsibility and target programme.

Boundary: Freight, local works, engineering, commissioning and installation scope must be confirmed in the written quotation.

Apollo is supply-only unless the written project scope states otherwise. Local engineering, statutory approvals, site works and installation remain project-specific.

Project pathways

Six collection directions help narrow the public-realm brief before product selection.

The collections are not cosmetic labels. Each one changes the questions asked about exposure, users, materials, maintenance, circulation and how the product package should sit within the wider project.

Project priorities

Public-realm products have to fit the place, the users and the maintenance reality.

01

Urban

Dense civic and commercial environments need products that work with pedestrian flow, durability, maintenance access and coordinated architectural finishes.

02

Coastal

Salt exposure, wind, rain and maintenance frequency should shape material, finish and product selection for waterfront and island projects.

03

Park

Recreation, shade, landscape, seating-adjacent systems and active-use products should support broad public participation and long service life.

04

Transit

Transport and interchange environments need clear circulation, robust materials, visibility, maintenance access and project-specific coordination.

05

Heritage

Historic and character environments require restrained product selection that respects context without pretending new products are original heritage fabric.

06

Contemporary

New precincts can use coordinated architectural, landscape and recreation systems where clean detailing and repeatable finishes are priorities.

How Apollo fits

Civaro gives the project team a place-based route into Apollo's wider product platform.

Civaro is a product and project-supply platform. Public-space design, accessibility, engineering, planning, installation and statutory compliance remain project-specific responsibilities.

01

Define the public setting

Identify whether the project is a park, streetscape, school, waterfront, transport hub, resort, civic centre or mixed-use precinct.

02

Choose the collection direction

Urban, Coastal, Park, Transit, Heritage or Contemporary creates the first design and performance filter.

03

Build the product package

Recreation, Corten, shade, utility, shelter and related systems can then be compared around the actual site brief.

04

Confirm procurement + supply

Apollo quotes product supply, available documentation and quantities. The purchaser independently arranges and manages design, approvals and installation.
