NORDESCO Wide Plastic Bench 12ft - Grey

The Nordesco Wide Plastic Bench 11ft - Grey is a custom-length, high-capacity commercial bench designed for expansive aquatic facilities, stadium changing concourses, collegiate athletic locker rooms, and high-volume natatorium perimeter corridors. It pairs an extended 132-inch span with an expanded seat depth, delivering massive multi-occupant seating capacity while maintaining structural stability in wet, chemically treated environments.

Functional Overview & Materials

Built for continuous exposure to harsh indoor pool chemistry and demanding commercial live loads:

• High-Impact Polypropylene Slat Platform: Constructed from commercial-grade, UV-stabilized virgin thermoplastic slats in neutral grey. Non-porous and chemically inert, the slats will not warp, splinter, absorb moisture, or support mold, mildew, or bacterial growth under continuous chloramine exposure.

• Deep-Profile Seating Surface: Features an expanded 18-to-20-inch seating depth (versus standard 12-to-14-inch benches), providing an exceptionally stable platform for athletes handling bulky swim gear, parent-child staging, or physical therapy transfers.

• Continuous Drainage Channeling: Spaced longitudinal slots direct splash-out, shower runoff, and washdown water straight through to the deck drainage system, eliminating standing surface puddles and accelerating air drying.

• Reinforced Multi-Pedestal Understructure: Supported by six structural upright pedestal frames made from reinforced structural polymer or passivated stainless steel. This dense post layout eliminates long-span midpoint deflection under dynamic live-load shifts across the 132-inch span.

• Deck Protection: Fitted with non-marking, chemical-resistant rubber/urethane foot pads that safeguard wet tile, plaster, epoxy, and acrylic deck coatings from abrasion or wear.
