We understand vandalism is a real concern for public spaces. That's why our outdoor benches are specifically engineered to handle challenges like scratching and etching with minimal visible impact.
We utilize advanced materials that form our first line of defense. Powder-coated aluminum and commercial-grade steel feature finishes that are incredibly difficult to scratch or etch through. For our wooden options, we select ultra-dense hardwoods or use composite lumber that lacks a natural grain for vandals to target, making deliberate markings shallow and less noticeable.
The design itself is strategic. Many models feature smooth, rounded surfaces without flat planes, which discourages etching and makes any attempts appear faint. We also offer optional protective laminate tops on tables and bench slats—a clear, hardened layer that shields the material beneath.
For graffiti, we specify non-porous finishes or integrate graffiti-resistant coatings. Most unwanted marks can be wiped away with a common eco-friendly cleaner without damaging the underlying finish, eliminating the need for abrasive sanding or repainting.
While no product is utterly indestructible, our focus is on resilience and easy maintenance. Any superficial scratches on our metal finishes often blend into the textured coating, and minor scuffs on wood can be lightly sanded. This design philosophy ensures our benches retain their functionality and appearance for years, reducing long-term costs and preserving the beauty of your community space.
Investing in our benches means choosing lasting quality that stands up to real-world use, allowing people to enjoy public seating with minimal maintenance worries.
