Bench with backrest and armrests for concrete low walls in the public realm. The anodised cast aluminium structure and FSC-certified tropical hardwood slats offer extended seating comfort. The compact version suits parks, care home gardens and dwell zones where people stay longer than a brief pause.
Low wall as a comfortable dwell space
A raised low wall is more than a boundary. With the right furniture, it becomes an inviting dwell space in the public realm. The Flavio with backrest uses that existing structure as the foundation for a seating element that offers genuine comfort. The compact 175 cm length suits park zones, care home gardens and transitional spaces where an individual seating point meaningfully improves dwell quality. The warm FSC hardwood reinforces the inviting character of green and mixed environments.
Timber and aluminium for outdoor use
FSC-certified tropical hardwood gives the seat and backrest warmth and a material character that sits well with greenery and stone. The timber is treated with protective oil and requires minimal maintenance. The supporting structure and armrest frames are in anodised cast aluminium: corrosion-resistant, colourfast and suited to coastal environments.
Back support for extended stays
What distinguishes this model is the aluminium backrest frame with timber slats. That back support makes the difference between a brief pause and genuine rest. For care home settings, parks and squares where people linger, the bench with backrest on low wall is the logical choice. The armrests provide grip when rising and meet the accessibility requirement of ISO 21542:2021 for outdoor seating.
Seating as an intention
A seating element on a low wall invites people to pause. This works best when the surroundings support that visit: a litter bin within reach, a cycle stand near the entrance, planting that softens the height difference. Servibo supplies all street furniture elements through a single point of contact.
Frequently asked questions
When does a designer choose the backrest version over the backless Flavio?
The backless Flavio preserves sightlines over the wall. The backrest version is the choice for extended comfort: care home settings, parks and destination seating where back support adds real value. The backrest adds visual mass and closes sightlines above the wall. Where both aspects matter, the combination variant FBB may offer a solution.
What substrate is required for mounting on a low wall?
The aluminium support frames are anchored using 4 fixation plugs. The supplied plugs are recommended for screed or concrete foundation. For masonry or other substrates, Servibo recommends a technical check before ordering.
What maintenance does the tropical hardwood require?
The Flavio requires no specific maintenance unless the original timber colour is to be preserved. Cleaning with a pH-neutral, alcohol-free and non-abrasive product is sufficient. Servibo provides advice on request.

Frequently asked questions
What does the backrest add compared to the backless Flavio?
The Flavio with backrest is designed for destination seating in parks, squares and care home settings where extended comfort is the priority. The backrest provides lumbar support, prevents backward leaning and gives the element a clear presence. The armrests at each end define the seating segment and assist rising in accordance with ISO 21542:2021. Servibo advises based on expected duration of stay and the spatial character of the location.
What substrate is required for mounting the Flavio on a low wall?
The aluminium support frames are anchored into the top of the low wall using fixation plugs. The supplied plugs are recommended for screed or a concrete foundation block. For masonry or other substrates, Servibo recommends a technical check before ordering. The hardwood slats are assembled onto the frames in a separate step. The unit is supplied unassembled and finished on site.
What maintenance does the tropical hardwood of the Flavio require?
The Flavio requires no specific maintenance unless the original timber colour is to be preserved. Cleaning with a pH-neutral, alcohol-free and non-abrasive product is sufficient. Servibo provides advice on request regarding suitable maintenance products.
