NORDESCO Wide Plastic Bench 9ft - Grey

The Nordesco Wide Plastic Bench 9ft - Grey is a custom-length, high-capacity commercial bench engineered for large-format natatorium decks, stadium grandstand perimeters, collegiate athletic complexes, and oversized locker room corridors. It pairs an extended 108-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

Designed for heavy dynamic commercial loading and continuous exposure to indoor natatorium or outdoor pool conditions:

• High-Impact Polypropylene Slat Assembly: Fabricated from commercial-grade, UV-stabilized virgin thermoplastic slats in neutral grey. Non-porous and chemically inert, the material resists chloramine vapor, splash-out, body oils, and concentrated sanitizers without rotting, cracking, peeling, or supporting fungal or bacterial growth.

• Deep Seating Profile: Offers 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 allow splash-out and washdown water to drain immediately through to the floor drainage grid, preventing surface puddle formation and accelerating evaporation for barefoot occupants.

• Reinforced Multi-Pedestal Understructure: Supported by five heavy-duty upright pedestal frames made from reinforced structural polymer or electropolished stainless steel. This dense post spacing prevents long-span midpoint deflection under dynamic live-load shifts across the 108-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.
