With a reduced overall height compared to standard picnic units, it provides comfortable, age-appropriate seating for younger users while offering the durability and low maintenance required for busy public settings.
Available with an extended tabletop option to support wheelchair access, the Alphabet unit is a practical choice for inclusive play environments and SEN-friendly outdoor spaces.

Outdoor seating plays an important role in creating usable, supervised spaces for children to eat, socialise and take part in structured outdoor learning. The Alphabet unit has been developed specifically as a children’s picnic table, offering a practical format that supports everyday use in education and recreation settings.
It is commonly specified for:
• Primary school playgrounds and outdoor dining zones
• Nurseries and early years settings
• Public play parks and recreation grounds
• Outdoor classrooms and forest school areas
• Community facilities and family visitor attractions
As a reliable playground picnic table, it provides a dedicated seating point that remains in place and performs consistently over time.
Safer, More Comfortable Playground Seating
Unlike full-size picnic benches, the Alphabet unit is manufactured at a reduced height to better suit younger children. This improves comfort and accessibility for primary school age groups and helps create seating that feels appropriate for the setting.
The junior height design supports:
• Easier access for younger users
• Comfortable seating posture for children
• Practical use in early years and primary environments
• A defined, supervised seating area within play spaces
This makes it a strong option for local authorities and education providers specifying a school picnic table for playgrounds and outdoor activity zones.
Recycled Plastic Construction for Low Maintenance Performance
The Alphabet picnic bench is manufactured from recycled plastic, providing a durable, low-maintenance alternative to timber. Recycled plastic is widely specified for school and play environments due to its resilience and ease of cleaning.
Key benefits include:
• Does not rot, warp or splinter
• Suitable for year-round outdoor installation
• Easy to wipe clean as part of routine site maintenance
• Maintains a consistent appearance over time
For schools and councils, this ensures the unit remains presentable and serviceable with minimal upkeep, even in wet, muddy or high-use environments.
SEN-Friendly and Wheelchair Accessible Configuration
To support inclusive access, the Alphabet play park picnic table is available with an extended tabletop option, allowing wheelchair users to access the table comfortably. This configuration is particularly valuable for SEN settings and inclusive playground design, ensuring outdoor seating can be used by all children.
This option is often specified for:
• Inclusive school playgrounds
• SEN schools and specialist education settings
• Public play parks designed for accessibility
• Community facilities with inclusive provision
By incorporating wheelchair access into a junior-height unit, the Alphabet supports practical, inclusive outdoor environments.
Fixing Options for Different Site Requirements
The Alphabet unit can be supplied with a choice of fixing methods, allowing it to be installed securely in a range of outdoor settings:
• Base plated fixing
• Root fixed installation
This flexibility supports installation on both hardstanding and landscaped surfaces, helping contractors and site managers select the most appropriate approach for the project.
The Alphabet picnic bench is frequently installed in:
• School playgrounds and outdoor dining areas
• Play parks and recreation grounds
• Outdoor learning and activity zones
• Visitor attractions with children’s play provision
• Residential developments with family amenities
Its robust recycled plastic construction makes it particularly suitable for locations where seating must remain durable and easy to maintain.
For complete school or park schemes, the Alphabet play park picnic table can be specified alongside other Broxap products, such as:
• Litter bins and recycling bins to support site cleanliness
• Additional benches for carers, staff and visitors
• Cycle parking stands near entrances
• Bollards and barriers to manage access routes
This coordinated approach supports well-planned outdoor environments where seating, safety and waste management infrastructure work together.
