Henge

What Henge does

Henge, Inc. is a New York-based, privately held designer and supplier of outdoor recreational concrete furniture, founded in 2008 by Alan Good (a former choreographer) and manufactured by a three-generation family-owned precast company in Brooklyn. Its core offering is a line of regulation-compliant concrete table tennis tables — the Silk Table (hand-rubbed finish) and the Stone Table (terrazzo/aggregate finish) — built at 5,000 psi with a proprietary graffiti-resistant polymer sealer, rounded safety corners, and a 20+ year design life. Accessories include the patented Prism Net (with a distinctive 60-degree slope and gong-sound feedback) and the City Grid Net; in 2018 the company extended into concrete Corn Hole boards (US Patent D954,827). Henge also sells low-cost paddles and balls as a recurring accessory stream.

The company sells almost exclusively through direct contact-form inquiry, targeting developers, landscape architects, parks and recreation departments, schools, military installations, and commercial/hospitality buyers. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; tables ship in four pieces with a 4–6 week lead time and require licensed contractor assembly with a forklift. The company is founder-controlled, has never raised institutional capital, and lists no public revenue. Distribution has historically been concentrated in the US Northeast with limited Southeast coverage through a single regional sales representative.

Customers include the City of New York (Tompkins Square Park, 2011), the Roosevelt Island Operating Corporation, Navy bases, schools, condo developments (LeFrak Organization), and a roster of major landscape architecture firms (Mathews Nielsen, OJB, Arquitectonica, RAMSA, Kimley-Horn). The company's marketing is content-driven — a company blog, a website installation gallery, and earned media including a 2011 New York Times feature and the Village Voice Best Park Installation Award. Website copyright extends to 2021, and no post-2021 product launches, hires, or funding events are documented.
