That's an excellent question for anyone planning urban spaces! When comparing durability for city benches, metal generally outperforms wood in most urban scenarios. Metal benches, particularly those made from aluminum or powder-coated steel, resist weathering, vandalism, and insect damage exceptionally well. They require minimal maintenance beyond occasional cleaning and won't splinter, warp, or rot. However, wooden benches (especially from hardwoods like teak or ipe) offer natural beauty and can last decades with proper sealing and maintenance. In harsh urban conditions with heavy use, extreme weather, and potential vandalism, metal's consistent durability often makes it the preferred choice. Consider aluminum for lightweight corrosion resistance or powder-coated steel for maximum strength. For wooden options, prioritize tropical hardwoods with annual sealing. Ultimately, your specific climate, maintenance budget, and aesthetic goals should guide this important decision for your community spaces.
I see you have wooden and metal options, which is more durable for urban benches?
