Design: Jordi Garcés & Enric Sòria - Dimensions: 360 x 60 x 45 (45) cm - Weight: 2.190 kg. - Material: cast concrete with natural stone aggregates, with integrated LED lighting - Finish: acid-etched and hydrophobic - Colour: standard Escofet colour chart - Installation: free-standing element or with optional anchoring
Betonnen zitbank van 360 cm met gezuurde afwerking en geïntegreerde LED-verlichting. Bij nacht verlicht de LED-module de volledige lengte van de bank van onderuit. Op 360 cm is dat een lichtlijn die de ruimtelijke definitie van het plein of de promenade 's avonds bewaart. Vereist ondergrondse stroomvoeding die voor aanleg van de verharding moet worden voorzien.

At 360 cm the Sócrates Banca 360® is not a bench in the conventional sense — it is a public furniture piece at architectural scale. This scale suits city squares, market places, and large park axes where visitor density requires a seating element that accommodates multiple people simultaneously, and where the horizontal mass of the bench also fulfils a spatial function: orientation point, windbreak, demarcation of the dwell zone. The Sócrates Banca 360® is most at home where the empty space feels too large to dwell in without a clear anchor point.
At 360 cm the material is everything. The Sócrates Banca 360® requires no visual support from other materials — the cast concrete with acid-etched finish is sufficient in itself. The acid treatment reveals the granular structure of the aggregates and gives the bench a texture that resonates with bluestone, granite, and the grey tones of the urban landscape. The waterproofing treatment protects the element for long-term outdoor use without masking the material-honest quality of the surface.
The integrated LED lighting of the Sócrates Banca 360® LED illuminates the full 360 cm of the bench from below. At this scale the illuminated bench is not a decorative accent — it is a spatial element that co-determines the evening identity of the plaza or promenade. The line of light marks the dwell zone in a way that also supports orientation and social safety in the evening. The electrical connection must be installed before the paving is laid; for larger projects Servibo coordinates the technical specifications with the contractor and electrical engineer.
Large public spaces require coherence at large scale. The Sócrates Banca 360® as anchor element works best combined with other Escofet elements that follow the same concrete logic: planters in the same colour and finish, bollards that do not interrupt the bench profile, waste bins that do not break the material state. Servibo coordinates the delivery of the complete hardscape design of the outdoor public space through a single point of contact for Belgium and Luxembourg. Specification texts for the Sócrates Banca 360® are available on request.
Does the Sócrates Banca 360® have a backrest or armrests?
No. The Sócrates Banca 360® is a monolithic concrete element without backrest or armrests. At 360 cm the bench offers ample space for groups — the length also allows sideways seating and leaning, encouraging multiple use patterns without breaking the spatial simplicity of the design.
Is a LED version of the Sócrates Banca 360® available?
Yes. The Sócrates Banca 360® is available in two finishes (polished and acid-etched), both also available with integrated LED lighting. The LED module illuminates the bench from below along the full 360 cm. Power supply must be installed before paving is laid. Servibo advises on the electrical connection per project.
Can the Sócrates Banca 360® be used on large city squares and marketplaces?
Yes. At 360 cm the Sócrates Banca 360® is specifically designed for large-scale public spaces. The horizontal mass of the bench plays a spatial role: it serves as an orientation point, windbreak, and demarcation of the dwell zone on plazas where the scale would otherwise feel too large to dwell in.
For projects in public tender we provide specification texts that align with the standard technical descriptions for street furniture. Contact us at info@servibo.be. Technical sheets and material samples for assessing finish quality are also available.
2 stud bolts M16 x x140 ( Din 931)
The installation of the Sócrates 360 with integrated LED lighting requires careful planning to ensure stability and optimal lighting performance. The LED system is delivered with a pre-installed driver, which can be easily connected to a 24V power supply.
Weighing 2230 kg, the transport and placement must be carried out using polyester slings and professional lifting equipment. To ensure stability, especially in high-traffic areas, anchoring the bench with DIN 931 M16 x 140 mm bolts in holes filled with resin or mortar is recommended.
Maintenance is minimal thanks to the durable materials and efficient LED technology. Cleaning the concrete surface with water and a soft brush is sufficient, while the LED lighting should be periodically inspected to ensure optimal performance.

Request specification text for this modelEscofet 1886 SA uses high-quality raw materials. Polished or acid-washed concrete with natural stone aggregates ages gracefully without coatings. Five-year warranty on all concrete elements. AISI 316 stainless steel for Cenicero inserts.
The Banca 360 LED has an IP67-certified light bar over the full 360 cm length at the base. In the evening, a continuous three-metre light line illuminates the bench as a single plane. Fully hidden in the concrete mass during the day.
The LED driver requires a 24V low-voltage supply via underground cabling. For a seating line with multiple LED elements, a combined cable route is possible.
Concrete elements age gracefully and require no periodic maintenance. Five-year warranty from Escofet 1886.
