Product Details:
Playful Design with Practical Application
Unlike standard seating, this animal themed outdoor bench integrates shaped end panels inspired by familiar animals, creating an engaging focal point within play areas. The designs support imaginative play while providing functional seating for rest, group activities, or informal outdoor learning.
Backless versions are supplied with frog or hedgehog ends, while benches with a backrest feature dinosaur or giraffe profiles.
This makes the range suitable for schemes where themed equipment is required to complement playground surfacing, outdoor classrooms, or storytelling areas.
Recycled Plastic Construction for Long-Term Use
Durable and Low Maintenance
Each recycled plastic animal bench is manufactured from high-quality recycled plastic boards. This material has been selected for its resilience in exposed outdoor environments and its suitability for education settings.
Key advantages include: • Resistance to rot, splintering, and moisture • No requirement for painting or staining • Easy cleaning and minimal ongoing maintenance • Strong colour retention over time • Excellent durability under heavy daily use
Compared to a traditional timber bench, a recycled plastic bench offers a significantly reduced maintenance burden, an important consideration for schools and local authorities managing multiple sites.
Configurations and Dimensions
To suit different site requirements and age groups, the animal themed bench is available in two standard lengths: • 1200mm • 1800mm
Both lengths can be specified: • With a backrest • As a backless seat
This flexibility allows specifiers to tailor seating layouts to available space, safeguarding clear circulation routes within playgrounds and ensuring appropriate seating heights for children.
The price displayed refers to the 1200mm backless frog design. Alternative configurations are available upon request.
Suitable Environments
This school playground bench is particularly suited to: • Primary school playgrounds • Nursery and early years settings • Public parks with designated children’s areas • Community centres and family recreation spaces • Visitor attractions incorporating play zones
Its combination of visual appeal and structural strength ensures it performs as both a seating solution and a playful design element within the wider public realm.
For coordinated playground schemes, it can be paired with other outdoor learning features or specified alongside complementary seating from Broxap’s wider street furniture range to provide both themed and standard seating options within the same development.
Installation Considerations
The bench is designed for secure fixing to prepared surfaces, ensuring stability in busy environments where children may climb or gather around the ends. When specifying, considerations typically include: • Surface type and fixing method • Supervision sightlines • Proximity to other play equipment • Safe access and circulation space
The sturdy construction and stable base make it suitable for long-term installation in education and community settings.
