Precast concrete street furniture covers benches, tables, planters, bollards and lighting bases for public spaces. Their weight and durability keep them in service outdoors for many years with little upkeep.
Precast concrete street furniture is a family of concrete units, cast in moulds at the plant, used in public spaces such as parks, squares and streets for seating, planting and organising space. Heavier and tougher than timber or metal alternatives, the pieces stay in place outdoors for a long time.
Street furniture shapes how an open space is used: benches and tables create places to rest, planters bring greenery onto hard surfaces, and bollards and barrier blocks keep vehicles out of pedestrian areas. Weight is one of the main qualities of concrete furniture; a piece cannot easily be moved or tipped over, and it stands up well to vandalism.
The range includes benches, picnic and game tables, flower and tree planters, bollards and pedestrian barrier blocks, litter bin surrounds and bases for lighting columns. Units can be made in straight, oval or polygonal forms, with pigmented colour, an exposed aggregate finish or a smooth face. Form, colour and finish are chosen to match the architectural language of the scheme, and the paving, kerbs and furniture in the same space can be designed together.
Street furniture is made by casting a flowable concrete into moulds prepared to give a clean finish on the visible faces. Where needed, reinforcement and fixing parts are placed during casting. Demoulded products are checked for edges and surfaces, and treatments such as washing, sandblasting or a protective impregnation can be applied on request. Plant production makes it easier to keep the same colour and finish across a whole series.
Because of their weight, the units are moved and placed with lorry-mounted cranes or forklifts. Cast-in lifting points or fork pockets are provided for handling. The pieces are set on level, compacted ground and, where necessary, anchored to it. The layout is planned so as not to obstruct pedestrian flow or access for maintenance vehicles.
Where street furniture goes depends on how the space is used: benches face shade and views, planters are placed to guide pedestrian flow, and bollards run along the boundaries that vehicles must not cross. Treating the furniture in the same design as the paving, kerbs and drainage of the space keeps levels, colours and finishes consistent and gives the area a coherent appearance.
Dimensions, reinforcement and load capacity are set by structural design for each project; contact us for technical details.
Prefabricated Plant Construction
We build factories, warehouses and industrial plants as a single contractor, from design to erection. Columns, beams, roof and facade elements are produced in our plant, delivered in planned sequence and erected by our own crews.
Facade and Floor Elements
A precast facade panel is a reinforced concrete wall unit made at the plant and fixed to the precast frame of an industrial building. It gives the building a durable, non-combustible envelope that goes up quickly.
Infrastructure Elements
A precast concrete pile is a reinforced or prestressed foundation element made in the plant and driven into the ground on site. It carries building loads past weak upper soil layers down to firmer strata.
