Park Benches
Blue Imp's classic Park Bench uses a one-piece perforated steel seat and back finished in a heavy vinyl coating — a pairing that absorbs knocks, resists corrosion, and stays comfortable season after season. The heavy-duty powder-coated steel frame is available with optional armrests, and the vinyl surface comes in five colours: blue, green, grey, tan, or brown. At 1.5 m (5 ft) long, it mounts either in-ground or surface-flush. A proven workhorse for municipal parks, schoolyards, and recreational sites — supplied and installed Canada-wide by BDI Play Designs.
StoneWood Bench/Balance Beam
Designed to resemble a natural log, this GFRC (glass-fibre-reinforced concrete) bench serves as both functional seating and an engaging balance challenge. Children can sit, perch, step, and walk along the surface, developing coordination, confidence, and physical literacy through unstructured active play. The log-look finish integrates seamlessly into nature-play environments, biophilic landscapes, and forest-school settings without the splinter risk or maintenance demands of real timber. Durable, weatherproof, and colour-stable across Canadian seasons. Shipped Canada-wide by BDI Play Designs.
StoneWood Steppers
Inspired by natural tree stumps, these GFRC steppers encourage children to jump, balance, and explore while navigating their own pathways. Their realistic appearance enhances nature-themed play spaces while promoting physical literacy and active movement.
Steel Canopy™ Shelter
A simple yet beautiful open gable park shade structure made from minimalist steel tubing and structural roof panels.
Contemporary Bench
The Contemporary Park Bench is a 5-foot (1.5 m) UV-resistant polyester powder-coated steel bench built for long-term outdoor use in virtually any environment — parks, plazas, transit corridors, and campuses alike. Tamper-resistant hardware keeps the bench secure in high-traffic public settings, and the colour-flexible powder-coat finish means it can be matched to any site palette. It is offered in both in-ground and surface-mount configurations. Designed and crafted in Canada; supplied across Alberta and throughout Canada by BDI Play Designs.
Stately Pedestal Table
The Stately Pedestal Table steps up from standard vinyl-coated designs with an all-powder-coated steel finish — top, seats, and frame — colour-matched in any Blue Imp polyester powder shade for a cohesive, site-specific look. The 1.5 m (5') table top accommodates a standard picnic group, and an extended 2.1 m (7') top can be specified to create a fully accessible, wheelchair-friendly end without removing a bench. Stainless steel hardware throughout ensures corrosion resistance that outlasts painted fasteners. Available with in-ground, surface-mount, or portable installation. Shipped Canada-wide by BDI Play Designs.
UrbanBeam™ Shelter
A robust park shelter or outdoor classroom shade structure made from rough sawn timber with steel accents. It includes an aggressive 6:12 pitch roofline together with dual splayed posts for a unique and modern appearance. The tables shown in the photo are quoted separately.
Square Pedestal Table
The Square Pedestal Table packs generous capacity into a clean 1.8 m × 1.8 m (6' square) footprint, making it one of the most space-efficient commercial tables for parks, schoolyards, and recreation areas. One-piece vinyl-coated perforated steel forms both the top and integrated benches in a single durable surface that needs no painting, staining, or seasonal upkeep. The powder-coated galvanized steel pedestal frame anchors solidly in-ground or surface-mounts to any hardscape. Order the wheelchair-accessible variant — with one bench removed — to meet inclusive-design requirements without a separate product. Available across Canada from BDI Play Designs.
