Folding bench
Smart, space-saving benching – so you don’t have to choose between growing and relaxing. Our new folding greenhouse bench is designed to give you the best of both worlds: benching for your plants and the flexibility to reclaim space when you want it.
This clever design means you no longer have to choose between maximising your greenhouse’s growing potential and enjoying it as a social space – lower the folding section to make room for a small bistro table and chairs.

Dimensions
Measuring 1850mm long x 900mm deep, it features:
• A 600mm deep folding section that can be quickly lowered when you need extra room – perfect for accommodating taller plants, storing items, or simply making space for something else.
• A 290mm deep fixed section that offers continuous growing or workspace, even when the folding section is down.
