NORDESCO Wide Plastic Bench 5ft - Grey

The Nordesco Wide Plastic Bench 5ft - Grey is a heavy-duty commercial seating installation engineered for high-capacity aquatic centers, team changing suites, natatorium concourses, and aquatic therapy facilities. It combines a 60-inch span with an expanded deep-profile seat to accommodate multiple occupants with gear while withstanding continuous moisture and sanitizing chemicals.

Functional Overview & Materials

Designed for structural resilience, comfort, and simple maintenance in demanding barefoot wet zones:

• Heavy-Duty Polypropylene Slats: Assembled from UV-stabilized, high-impact virgin thermoplastic slats in neutral grey. The solid, non-porous structure is impervious to chloramine vapor, chlorinated splash-out, body oils, and concentrated cleaning agents, eliminating rot, corrosion, splintering, and fungal growth.

• Deep Seating Platform: Features an 18-to-20-inch wide seating profile (vs. standard 12-to-14-inch narrow profiles), providing a stable, comfortable base for swimmers, physical therapy staging, or changing in wet environments.

• Continuous Drainage Channeling: Precision-spaced longitudinal slots ensure immediate water runoff down to the floor, eliminating standing surface water, accelerating drying, and maintaining wet-traction safety.

• Multi-Leg Structural Substructure: Supported by three structural upright pedestal frames made from reinforced polymer or electropolished stainless steel. This multi-point layout eliminates center-span deflection across the 5-foot span and transfers heavy live loads safely to the deck.

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