URBAN FURNITURE FOR SHARED SPACES

Concrete is a long-lasting and robust material that can last for decades in the outdoor environment. In shared community spaces, precast concrete furniture is the optimal choice for councils due to its excellent performance over time. Apart from general cleaning, no significant maintenance or reparation works are required after products have been installed. This makes concrete furniture ideal for public spaces that receive high foot traffic and are exposed to various weather conditions.

Another benefit of precast concrete furniture is its ease of upkeep. Unlike wood, metal, or plastic furniture, precast concrete furniture does not require painting, staining, or polishing. It is resistant to rot, rust, and insect damage, making it a low-maintenance option for community spaces. This is particularly advantageous for council settings where there may not be the resources or budget to perform regular maintenance.

Precast concrete furniture is also highly versatile. It can be designed and manufactured in a wide range of shapes, sizes, and colours to suit the specific needs of a council setting. This versatility allows for custom-made furniture that complements the aesthetic of the surrounding area. Additionally, precast concrete furniture can be used for a variety of applications, such as benches, planters, tables, and bollards, providing several options for councils wanting to implement heavy duty urban furniture.

SVC Products is a manufacturer of precast concrete products with decades of expertise in producing urban furniture for council projects. SVC’s suite of catalogue furniture options offers councils readily available designs for quick installation. Alternatively, for councils wanting more involvement in furniture design, SVC can support them throughout the process of bespoke fabrication, turning their design concepts into built form.

Precast concrete furniture by SVC can be found in many different municipalities across Australia. Within Melbourne CBD, you'll find SVC concrete seats, benches, bollards, as well as decades-old planters that were installed in the 70s and are still in use.

Another reason to source precast furniture through SVC is the company’s commitment to environmental sustainability, aiming to minimise waste and reduce GHG emissions. SVC uses locally sourced materials and has actively invested in incorporating recycled waste material and environmentally friendly cement alternatives into their concrete products, in an effort to reduce its overall carbon footprint.
