Recycled Plastic Planter Bench With Backrest
This recycled plastic planter bench with backrest combines practical seating with large integrated planters, perfect for town centres, shopping precincts and community spaces. Made from 100% recycled plastic, it’s weatherproof, vandal-resistant and maintenance-free, with a 175kg stable build and a lifespan of around 120 years.
Combining practical outdoor seating with two large integrated planters on either side, this recycled plastic planter bench with backrest is perfect for town centres, shopping precincts, college campuses and community spaces. As well as providing a place to rest, the planters allow for vibrant floral displays that create a more welcoming and attractive environment.
With a life expectancy of around 120 years, this bench is built to last. Unlike timber or concrete, which are prone to decay, Smartawood is resistant to rotting, warping, and splintering. Another important feature for outdoor seating, it will not absorb moisture, meaning it dries quickly after rainfall and remains safe and reliable in all conditions. Resistant to fungi and vandalism, it is a zero-maintenance alternative to traditional outdoor furniture.
Weighing 175kg, this recycled plastic bench is built as a stable, heavy-duty structure suitable for demanding public areas. Combined with its zero-maintenance design, it provides lasting strength without the ongoing upkeep associated with timber furniture.
The planters at either side of the bench add a touch of natural colour and character, which can make a significant impact in urban areas surrounded by concrete. Whether filled with colourful flowers or hardy evergreens, they create a welcoming feature for pedestrians and visitors. Cleaning is simple: wipe down with warm soapy water, or jet-wash for a deeper clean without damaging the material.
Please note: This recycled plastic bench planter with backrest is supplied fully assembled. As it cannot be unloaded using a standard tail-lift, suitable lifting equipment will be required on site to safely offload the unit upon delivery.

Customer Collection Notice
Please ensure you have pre-booked your collection slot before travelling to site.
When arriving to collect your order, please report to a member of our Warehouse Team who will register your arrival and locate your goods. Once ready, your items will be picked and brought to your vehicle loading area.
During busy periods, there may be a short wait while our yard team assist other customers or complete other loading tasks. We always do our best to work within your booked collection time.
We respectfully draw your attention to the following important points:
- Loading is ultimately the customer’s responsibility. While our team can assist with mechanical loading using forklifts, we cannot handball items into enclosed vehicles. Customers must ensure their vehicle is suitable and that goods are safely loaded and adequately secured before leaving the premises.
- Sharp sheeting, metal goods, and long/heavy items may pose additional handling risks. Please come prepared with high-quality protective gloves, and any appropriate protection materials to avoid damage to your vehicle or restraints (e.g. ropes or straps). The edges of roofing sheets and metal products can be extremely sharp, and care should be taken when handling.
- We strongly recommend that customers bring their own straps, ropes, or other securing materials, as we are unable to provide these at the point of collection.
- If you are unsure of your vehicle’s load capacity, we can advise the approximate weight of your order in advance. It is your responsibility to ensure your vehicle is suitable for transporting the goods safely and legally.
- Cladco will not be held liable for any damage to your vehicle or goods once they have been loaded and leave our premises. Loading assistance is provided entirely at the customer’s own risk.
Click & Collect – Pre-Booking Required
You are welcome to collect your order from either our Okehampton (Devon) or Andover (Hampshire) site. All collections must be pre-booked in advance so your items can be picked, packed and ready for you.
