NORDESCO Wide Plastic Bench 11ft - Sand

The Nordesco Wide Plastic Bench 11ft - Sand is an extended commercial freestanding bench engineered with an expanded seating depth for large-scale aquatic and athletic venues requiring superior stability, gear staging capacity, and warm earth-tone finishes. Spanning 132 inches with a generous 17-to-20-inch seating platform, it provides expansive multi-occupant seating for high-traffic natatoriums, collegiate fieldhouses, wellness complexes, and central locker room corridors.

Functional Overview & Materials

Engineered for continuous exposure to humid natatorium air, heavy dynamic commercial loads, and aggressive pool sanitizers:

• Polypropylene Slat Platform (Sand): Fabricated from heavy-duty, UV-stabilized virgin thermoplastic slats in an integral "Sand" (warm tan/beige) tone. Chemically inert and non-porous, the material resists chloramine vapor, chlorinated splash-out, sweat, and hospital-grade cleaners without peeling, chipping, rotting, splintering, or harboring bacteria.

• Expanded Wide Profile: Features an enlarged seat depth (approximately 17 to 20 inches) compared to the standard 12-to-14-inch narrow profile, delivering improved seated comfort, broad footprint stability against tipping, and ample surface space for large athletic bags and gear.

• Rapid Drainage & Airflow: Longitudinal drainage slots allow shower runoff, pool water, and washdown spray to drain immediately through to the deck drains below, eliminating standing water puddles and accelerating air drying for barefoot patrons.

• Six-Pedestal Understructure: Supported by six structural upright pedestal frames fabricated from reinforced structural polymer or passivated stainless steel hardware. This dense multi-post layout eliminates long-span center deflection under dynamic multi-occupant loads across the 132-inch run.

• Deck Surface Protection: Outfitted with non-marking, chemical-resistant rubber/urethane leveling feet that protect wet tile, plaster, epoxy, and acrylic deck coatings from abrasion, scuffing, or gouging.
