Backless Bench – Durable Timber Street Furniture for Public Spaces

The Backless Bench from Speedy Street Solutions is a beautifully simple yet incredibly strong piece of outdoor street furniture, ideal for public parks, schools, town centres, and coastal resorts across the UK.

Designed with both comfort and durability in mind, this all-timber bench combines a natural aesthetic with a robust structure that resists vandalism, ensuring a long lifespan even in demanding outdoor environments.

Elegant & Functional Design

Built for Comfort and Longevity

The Backless Bench features a slightly raked seat with dished timber slats, providing comfortable seating while allowing water to run off easily. This design minimises maintenance and enhances durability, even in areas exposed to harsh weather or high footfall.

Particularly popular in coastal resorts, this bench offers the perfect combination of style, strength, and sustainability, making it a preferred choice for architects and landscape designers.

Premium Timber Choices

At Speedy Street Solutions, we only use carefully selected and graded timbers to ensure quality and longevity. Our Backless Benches are available in both hardwood and softwood:

• Hardwood (Iroko / Oak) – Dense, durable, and resistant to decay. Hardwood benches require minimal treatment and offer long-lasting performance.

• Softwood (Cedar) – Lightweight, cost-effective, and naturally aromatic. Softwood benches need annual treatment but can achieve a desirable weathered silver-grey appearance over time.

Timber Options

• Iroko – A distinctive hardwood with a golden-brown tone that darkens naturally with age.

• Oak – A traditional hardwood with a light brown finish, known for strength and elegance.

• Cedar – A softwood with reddish hues and natural resistance to decay, ideal for outdoor use.
