Outdoor classrooms are becoming more common as schools increase the use of outdoor spaces. Furniture is just as important outdoors as it is indoors and these recycled plastic lumber benches are built to withstand the elements. Table and bench sets are also available. Recycled plastic lumber requires no maintenance and is very durable with a long lifecycle because it does not rot (like some woods) or rust (like metal). Why recycled plastic lumber? Recycled plastic lumber is not only comfortable to sit on because it doesn’t get hot or splinter; it’s a sustainable product too. It is made of a combination of plastics that would have otherwise gone to the landfill or the recycling bin.
