About this product

Bradford Seating

The Bradford Seating Range is a contemporary collection of outdoor seating comprising both backless benches and seats with backrests, designed for high‑use public‑realm environments. Combining stainless steel frames with timber slats, the range delivers a durable, low‑maintenance solution with a refined, modern aesthetic.

The Bradford Seating Range is a coordinated collection of urban seating elements designed to provide durability, consistency and design flexibility across public‑realm environments. The range includes both a backless bench and a seat with backrest, allowing designers to create varied layouts while maintaining a unified visual identity throughout a scheme. For more demanding environments such as coastal or industrial locations, the range can also be specified in grade 316 stainless steel, offering enhanced performance against aggressive conditions. The seating surfaces are formed from timber slats, creating a warm visual contrast to the metal frame while maintaining user comfort. A variety of timber options can be specified, allowing the seating to be tailored to different landscape contexts or design requirements. The two configurations serve distinct functional purposes: The Bradford Bench offers a backless, space‑efficient seating solution, ideal for high‑circulation areas or short‑stay use. The Bradford Seat incorporates a supportive backrest (and optional armrests), making it suitable for longer dwell times and more relaxed use. Both variants are designed to perform in high‑footfall environments and are commonly installed in town centres, retail parks, public plazas and transport‑adjacent spaces. Typical dimensions are approximately 1800–2000 mm in length, with the bench having a seat height of around 450 mm, while the seat version includes a backrest height of approximately 840 mm. Installation options include surface mounting with base plates or root fixing, allowing flexibility depending on site conditions and security requirements. Additional options such as anti‑skate studs, armrests and bespoke finishes can be specified to suit project demands. The Bradford Seating Range is designed as part of a wider coordinated family of street furniture, enabling consistent specification across projects. Its combination of robust materials, flexible configurations and contemporary styling makes it a reliable solution for long‑term public‑realm installations.
