This bench is designed to pair seamlessly with the Grasshopper Mesa, forming a modern and aesthetic picnic set that invites social interaction and comfort. Its sleek, minimalist design effortlessly integrates into various environments, from city parks to corporate plazas and recreational areas.
Designed for Heavy Use and Lasting Beauty
The Grasshopper Banca is crafted from UHPC-Slimconcrete, an ultra-high-performance concrete that offers exceptional strength and durability. Thanks to its high resistance to wear, impact, and weathering, the bench remains in pristine condition for years, even in high-traffic public spaces. It is available in a soft polished finish for a luxurious look or an acid-etched finish for a more natural texture.
A Flexible and Sustainable Choice
Weighing 230 kg and measuring 160 cm in length, the Grasshopper Banca offers ample seating space and stability. The bench pairs easily with the Grasshopper Mesa to create a seamless table-bench combination. This set adds a contemporary flair to any outdoor area, making picnics or gatherings a stylish experience. Moreover, both the bench and table are made from 100% recyclable materials, ensuring a minimal environmental footprint.
Innovative Design with Attention to Detail
The innovative design of the Grasshopper Banca plays with open and closed lines that evoke a sense of movement and lightness. The smooth curves invite users to sit, providing both visual and physical comfort. The option of various colors and textures allows the bench to be tailored to specific projects and environments.

4 anchorage bolts M12x140
The Grasshopper Banca is produced as a single piece of UHPC-Slimconcrete and is designed for easy installation and long-term use. Thanks to its self-stabilizing design, the bench can be securely placed without requiring complex foundations. For optimal installation, the bench is positioned using lifting straps and secured by tightly fastening the two M12 anchor bolts into pre-drilled and resin-filled pavement. This ensures a firm placement, even in busy public spaces. Maintenance requires only simple cleaning with water and a mild detergent, preserving the durable finish regardless of intensive use or exposure to weather conditions.
