Ductile Iron Frame with Hardwood Seating
The defining feature of the Parkgate seat is its sculpted ductile iron frame, which incorporates detailing to the rear, sides and front. This structural element provides strength and stability while contributing to the bench’s distinctive appearance.
The seating and backrest are formed from seven hardwood Iroko slats supplied in a planed and sanded finish as standard. Iroko is selected for its durability and natural resistance to decay, making it suitable for year-round outdoor use.
Key features include:
• Ductile iron frame
• Seven hardwood Iroko slats
• Planed and sanded timber finish
• Decorative frame detailing
• Available in a range of standard colours
As a metal park bench, it combines structural integrity with the warmth of natural timber.
