Stylish & Practical Street Benches
Street furniture plays a ubiquitous part of street design. When deciding on what type of site furnishing and where to place them, landscape architects not only have to consider aesthetics and functionality. The impact the street furniture has on road safety, pedestrian mobility, and the city’s visual identity is also important.
A growing movement in architecture is to provide green spaces as a counterbalance to modern city skylines. Architects have a fine line to tread between the balance of nature and modern architecture. Public areas such as parks are the perfect stages to accomplish this goal- and what better way to add a further touch of life through natural stone site furnishing?
Jonite’s Banco street bench is a natural extension of our existing line of grates and panels. This new line of site furnishing offers a unified look throughout your design from drainage grates to street furniture.

Benefits of Jonite Modern Street Benches
At Jonite, we wanted to transform the traditional seating of outdoor landscapes. Their R&D team worked towards a vision of sleek and modern designs, breaking the mold of large and heavy stone street benches. The perfected products include the following advantages:
- Sturdy and ergonomic construction: Banco street benches come in fully knock-down or pre-assembled systems to accommodate standard or customized components while being sturdy and cost-effective.
- Extreme load-bearing strength: A specially treated steel frame provides incredible durability and meets international standards for load-bearing capability.
- Low heat absorption: The stone’s natural finish absorbs less heat than other materials, offering temperature control for a safe and comfortable place to sit.
- Rust and corrosion resistance: Jonite material’s uniquely resilient properties make our benches suitable for outdoor use, as they are able to maintain an ideal appearance over time.
- Sustainable materials: At least 30% of Jonite Banco street furniture is made of recycled products. This is their way of contributing to a green and sustainable environment.

Frequently
Asked Questions
Can I conceptualise and design a completely unique street bench?
Yes, this is possible.
How weather resistant are Jonite street benches?
Due to the unique properties of the material, the heat absorption is better than most materials like metal and wood. Low water absorption and perforations on the benches also helps with quicker drying after the rain.
What can be customized with Jonite Banco street benches?
For the Banco collection, Jonite can customise the designs and colours of the panels.
Can Jonite design the support if I were to customize the panels for the bench?
Jonite can design a simple panel support system. However, please take note that any mounting or fixtures will not be included in the design.
Are Jonite products sustainable?
Jonite commits to environmentally sustainable practices. We actively manage our energy, water, and waste with the future in mind. They use at least 30% recycled aggregates, which reduces carbon emissions by up to 80%.
Jonite products are also Singapore Green Building Product (SGBP) certified (4 ticks, leader). This means that designers can score additional points under the Functional Systems Criteria (Flooring, Ceiling, Roof, External Wall, Internal Wall and Door systems) and/or Singular Sustainable Products outside of Functional Systems Criteria. This ensures that sustainability is integrated throughout the design and manufacturing process of green building products.
Do Jonite products contain silica?
Jonite has worked hard to ensure their products contain less than 1% silica, which has been accepted by SafeWorkNSW. It is rare that a Jonite product will need to be cut on site. If so, it has to be done with correct PPE.
