A cube blending elegance and functionality
The Sócrates Cubo, with its polished finish, is more than a bench; it is a refined design element that seamlessly combines aesthetics and functionality. With its sleek lines and cubic shape made of high-quality concrete, this bench fits perfectly into urban and municipal settings. The polished finish adds a touch of luxury, making it ideal for modern squares, parks, and other public spaces.
Durable, low-maintenance, and timeless
The use of water-repellent concrete with a polished finish ensures that the Sócrates Cubo withstands harsh weather conditions. This makes the bench virtually maintenance-free, a feature highly valued by municipal authorities and public space managers. The durability of the material and the timeless look of the design contribute to the product’s longevity, saving costs in the long term.
Creating harmony in every environment
The Sócrates Cubo is designed to bring subtle structure to public spaces. Its compact size and minimalist design make it suitable for a wide range of applications. From bustling urban centers to tranquil parks, the Sócrates Cubo adds a touch of elegance to every setting. For larger seating solutions, the Sócrates 240 and Sócrates 360 models are available, each with the same attention to detail and quality.
A versatile choice for any public space
While this version features a polished finish, the Sócrates Cubo is also available in an etched finish to meet specific aesthetic requirements. Additionally, models such as the Sócrates Cubo LED offer integrated lighting to transform spaces during evening hours. These variations are standalone designs that maintain the same quality and durability.

Simple installation for long-lasting stability
The Sócrates Cubo requires a careful installation process designed to ensure stability and durability. The product is self-standing and can be placed directly on a solid, flat surface. For additional security against movement, it is recommended to anchor the bench. This involves drilling two holes into the surface, filling them with a strong resin or mortar, and securely fastening bolts (DIN 931 M16 x 140 mm). This guarantees stable placement even in high-traffic environments.
Safe transport and precise positioning
Caution is advised during transport. The bench, weighing 361 kg, must be moved using polyester slings and professional lifting equipment. Special care should be taken to avoid scratches or damage to the polished finish during handling and placement.
Minimal maintenance, maximum appeal
The Sócrates Cubo is low-maintenance thanks to the water-repellent properties of the material. Regular cleaning can be done with water and mild soap. For stubborn stains, a non-abrasive cleaner is recommended to preserve the polished finish. This ease of maintenance ensures long-lasting aesthetics and functionality, even with intensive use.
