THE BESKE BROTHERS
Founder of Beske-Manufaktur
Even when we were young, we, Jens and Malte, loved creating new things in the workshop. This love of craftsmanship, of creating something new by skilfully combining different materials, still exists today! We quickly won over our first customers with our first invention – Betonfeuer – the concrete fire.
« In 2016, we made a dream come true. The Beske-Manufaktur was born. »
History
Beske-Manufaktur – that’s us: the brothers Jens and Malte, together with our fantastic team. Even when we were little, we spent a lot of our free time in a workshop somewhere. Armed with tools (mostly a hammer and nails) – but not necessarily the required qualifications – everything within reach was somehow “used”.
The joy of development
Sometimes the results weren’t always perfect, but we had a grin on our faces. How about today? Of course, the results are no longer comparable to those of childhood, but the fun of working with concrete and the love of the craft remain! In 2016, we decided to make this smile on our faces permanent, to “concretise and cement” it in a certain way. » That was the birth of Beske-Manufaktur.
Status today
In the meantime, we no longer use every material we can get our hands on, but instead concentrate on concrete, steel and wood. Numerous experiments in the production process and the composition of our concrete, as well as the permanent development of personal skills, are reflected today in the quality of our Betonfeuer.
We hope that you can feel the passion that goes into our products and experience wonderful Beske moments with your favorite pieces!
The heart of the manufactory
Betonfeuer®
Betonfeuer® are THE product of the Beske-Manufaktur. The family came up with the idea, the first experiments and today’s products. The idea of the campfire 2.0 was constantly developed further. Thanks to optimization, customer feedback and other factors, we now offer 8 different variants. These are adapted to suit different tastes as well as the various conditions in the home garden, on a small city balcony or a wildly romantic terrace. Depending on their size, round and square Betonfeuer® are designed for different uses and preferences. You can find information on this under the respective Betonfeuer.
The inventors of the Betonfeuer
The idea
We came up with the idea of Betonfeuer® when we were looking for a solution for using leftover wax. As candles do not burn down completely, there is leftover wax that remains unused.
The solution approach
With the Betonfeuer®, they can be easily recycled and still provide a cozy ambience. The specially developed permanent wick produces a particularly high flame that is reminiscent of a campfire.
“Rediscover the campfire” is the motto behind our invention. You read that right – we developed and implemented the product 100% ourselves – and are very proud of “our Betonfeuer”.
With clear geometric shapes and the purist gray concrete, the Betonfeuer fits into any environment and sets timelessly elegant accents. Let our instagram inspire you on how you can best use our Betonfeuer. Click here for instagram »
Made - For you
We love what we do and do our best every day to give you a Beske moment too. Each item is professionally handcrafted in our factory in Cologne. There is no product that does not pass through the hands of several team members and is checked by us as part of quality control. We love concrete!
Made in Germany

Sustainability at the Beske-Manufaktur
With our Betonfeuer®, we are taking a first step towards reducing waste and are clearly committed to recycling wax and candles.
