School Benches: How the Plusmark Range Is Listed and What to Specify
School benches are the newest line in the Plusmark range. The catalog describes Plusmark as expanding into the manufacturing of school benches, supporting educational infrastructure development — which is why the range is published as a model list rather than as a page of finished specifications.
Fifteen models are listed, numbered PDS-SB 801 through PDS-SB 815. Each one is catalogued by model reference, and dimensions, materials and seating configuration are confirmed against the requirement you send.
How the range is referenced
Every bench carries the same prefix, so a specification line looks like PDS-SB 807 or PDS-SB 812. The model number is the thing to quote in an enquiry or a tender schedule — it is unambiguous, and it lets the sales team pull the right configuration instead of guessing from a description.
- PDS-SB 801, 802, 803, 804, 805, 806, 807, 808
- PDS-SB 809, 810, 811, 812, 813, 814, 815
- Model PDS-SB 807 is the reference board shown in the range listing
- Dimensions, materials and seating configuration are requested per model
What a seating enquiry actually needs
A bench order fails on vagueness far more often than a board order, because the bench has to fit both the child and the room. Four details settle it: the class group it is for (which sets seat height), the number of students per unit (single, double or shared seating), the room dimensions with the aisle widths you intend to keep, and the count of units.
If the room already has boards mounted, add the board bottom height to the list. Bench seat height and board writing height are one continuous problem, and specifying them separately is how classrooms end up with children writing upwards.
Write the model into the room, not just the budget
Aisle clearance, door swing, and the position of the switchboard and notice wall all take space that the plan usually forgets. Count the units the room can actually seat at the layout you want, then check that the boards and the bench height agree.
For a block being fitted out at once — several classrooms, a laboratory, a library reading room — send the room list with the bench requirement. Board and bench lines from the same catalog can then be scheduled together instead of in two rounds of purchasing.
Why benches and boards are ordered together
Plusmark already supplies what goes on the classroom walls: chalk boards and white boards for teaching, practice boards with four-line and square-line marking for early handwriting, notice and acrylic door cover boards for display, homework tables for study, and stands for rooms where nothing can be drilled. Benches close the loop by supplying what the children sit on.
For a school that is standardising, that means one vendor list for the whole classroom fit-out — board surface, board size, seating and display — rather than four separate purchase decisions that meet for the first time on site.
Where the numbers come from
Rates, delivery and minimum order quantities for institutional seating are settled against the specific requirement through the sales channel, and are not published on this site. Send the class group, seating per unit, quantity and the room, and the answer comes back per model.
Questions on this topic
- How many school bench models does Plusmark list?
- Fifteen. The catalog lists models PDS-SB 801 to PDS-SB 815 under the School Benches range.
- Are bench dimensions published on the site?
- No. Each model is catalogued by reference, and dimensions, materials and seating configuration are confirmed on enquiry against the class group and the room.
- Can benches be ordered with classroom boards?
- Yes. Benches sit in the same catalog as Plusmark's chalk boards, white boards, practice boards, notice boards and stands, so a classroom fit-out can be sent as one requirement list.
Boards mentioned in this guide
Sizes, surfaces and frame variants listed here are made to order. Send Plusmark your room details and quantity and the team will confirm what is available in that series.
