Ribbon range
Ribbon
Stylish, simplistic design
Ribbon seating offers a simple and minimalist design that enhances any outdoor space.
Along with standard seats and benches, a variety of unique designs have been created, including the dual-function Ribbon multiseat/ table - a great addition to schools, universities, play areas, and hospitality settings. And the Ribbon XL Recliner - offering a relaxed seating solution in parks and private gardens.
All Ribbon and Ribbon XL units are manufactured using recycled steel and seating platforms with legally sourced certified iroko timber slats which are available in four lengths, to form from one person units up to four person.
A matching Ribbon cycle stand is also offered in the range to create a coordinated suite across a scheme.

Ribbon Standard
With the Ribbon standard range, you’ll find a sleek design that’s simple and stylish. Designed to accommodate one person, as a single seating solution or up to four people.
Particularly suitable for housing developments and education establishments due to its practical and affordable design.
Ribbon Standard seat
Seats with backs are particularly suited to placement where longer stay seating is required as the backrest support offers greater comfort. Ribbon seats are simply styled, with the seat support integrating both the backrest and armrest.
Armrests are useful for less able-bodied people as they provide an aid to lowering down onto and getting back up from the seat.
Options
• Timbers with UV protective finish
• Seat supports powder coated to any RAL colour
• Seat supports in stainless steel
• Single seat, 2, 3 or 4 person unit
As is characteristic of the entire Ribbon seating range, the recycled steelwork frame is visually light but structurally very strong and has removable timber slats for easy repair and maintenance.

Ribbon seating technical info .
Installation
All Ribbon seating products are pre-fitted with nylon feet, which prevent the steelwork from marking the paving if the seats are freestanding, and also protects the steelwork from being abraded by paving, especially if the steelwork is coated.
Bolt-down seating
• For permanent installation in public areas, we recommend that the Ribbon products are bolted down to the ground.
• When the feet are removed the pre-drilled holes can be used for an M10 ground anchor fixing (not supplied).
Freestanding seating
• The profile and weight distribution of the Ribbon range also allows them to be safely used as freestanding units using the feet provided.
Care & handling
