Chef de jardin
With our carefully selected modern outdoor furniture, we help you create idyllic corners on your terrace or in your garden, allowing you to enjoy simple moments carefree throughout the year.

Our story began with the establishment of the company ZIP Tech, where, with a modern machine park, we produced high-quality metal (semi)products and steel structures (industrial buildings, canopies, and garages). We have always approached these projects with a comprehensive mindset, aiming to support our clients from the moment they share their ideas with us — so that we can provide the most optimal solution to meet their needs and desires.
The satisfaction of our clients with completed projects drove us forward and opened many new paths. About two years later, we began exploring (bioclimatic) pergolas. This decision was not only driven by the desire to introduce innovations into our offer and expand the company toward modern outdoor living solutions, but also by our own experience of dissatisfaction with spending most of our time ‘between four walls’ or in a car. We wanted to move as much of our computer work and household activities as possible outdoors, into the fresh air.


We wanted to create, cook, connect — truly live. We wanted to make the most of the moments we have for ourselves and be fully present in them. To live them very slowly and ensure that the small moments — simple yet most precious — wouldn’t slip through our fingers.
We found our path in co-creating home outdoor spaces that nourish the soul, with elegant products and a constant attention to detail.
We dedicated several years to thoroughly analyzing every part of the pergola — every detail — drawing thousands of plans, optimizing, and searching for the right partners. Partners who are skilled enough, experienced enough, and able to provide optimal support. It is precisely because of this in-depth research into pergolas that we can proudly say our range today represents only top quality.


However, our idea didn’t end with covering terraces, balconies, or gardens. We wanted to offer a complete range of outdoor equipment. That’s how we began developing two lines of outdoor kitchens.
Our goal was to create outdoor kitchens that are highly functional while also visually refined. From the very beginning, our mission was to design kitchens that are accessible to a wider audience — affordable yet stylish — as well as premium modular outdoor kitchens, where we pay attention to every hidden joint, every invisible screw, every clean line, and every smallest detail.
Most of our products are made right here in Slovenia. We want to know — and see — exactly which materials are used in our products: metal of high quality and durability, materials that are easy to clean and resistant to rain, sunlight, wind, and all weather conditions.
We designed and produced quite a few “waste” products along the way, but this turned out to be a necessary part of the process. Without those mistakes, we wouldn’t be where we are today, nor would we have the opportunity and honor to present our brand — Chef de Jardin — to the world. Under this name, we have united all our products that help create idyllic outdoor living spaces.
