Chesil Bank Parish Council

“Delighted with our benches to mark the reign of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, erected on a village green within our Portesham Parish. It was important in our choosing that the furniture, as well as the company we purchased from, met and delivered on our Council’s sustainability expectations. Not only do NBB do that – and then some – but we were thrilled to receive delivery next day at no extra charge! Yes, they told us it was next day. Yes, they told us it was free. But it actually was! Thank you NBB.”

Tostarie House Holiday Cottage Recycled Plastic Picnic Table

Tostarie House Holiday Cottage

We recently supplied Tostarie House Holiday Cottage in Scotland with a Universal Picnic Table for their outdoor seating area, being manufactured from 100% recycled plastic the table is guaranteed for 25 years and will never rot, crack, or splinter. Mark has commented, Just what we needed to sit and admire the view (and to survive Mull’s variable weather). This is a fantastic picnic table that will provide years of service.

The Royal Bournemouth Hospital

A few months ago, we were approached by our local Royal Bournemouth Hospital to see if we’d be willing to donate any furniture to complete their new outdoor Lavender Garden project. It was a pleasure to support such a great cause for our local hospital, and we sincerely hope that all the staff at Royal Bournemouth Hospital thoroughly enjoy relaxing in the garden for many years to come.  The amazing garden furniture is so comfortable and the fact that it is recycled and sustainable makes it even more enjoyable. The colour is so relaxing and fits into the garden colours perfectly. The staff are enjoying relaxing in the chairs, eating their lunch at the table and just sitting on the benches watching the wildlife and flowers. - Louise McGraw, Directorate Manager at The Royal Bournemouth and Christchurch Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust

Winton Library’s Sunken Garden Captain's Treble Seat

Winton Library’s Sunken Garden

We recently had the privilege of attending the grand opening of the Sunken Garden at Winton Library. Over the last few years, the garden had gone into disarray, so BH9 Business Community has spent the last couple of months volunteering there so that the local community could enjoy the garden once again. As part of the anticipated revamp, we were delighted to be able to provide our exclusive Platinum Jubilee Captain’s Treble Bench. Chair of BH9 Business Community Emma Martineau said,  What an absolutely fantastic use of plastic! A beautiful yet sturdy bench. It is more comfortable than wood, and, guaranteed to last 25 years, will not need sanding nor wood treatment each year. Using the Queen’s Jubilee colours is an inspired notion, making our bench bright and practical.

Mudeford Community Infant School

 We replaced a rotting timber raised bed with two brown raised beds. The raised beds were quick and easy to construct and once the old timber was removed, the new assembled plastic raised bed was quickly lifted into position to replace the old bed. Overall, the job was completed in under a couple of hours and most of this time was spent removing the old timber. I wish they had been plastic timber from the start. We now look forward to many years of happy vegetable gardening in this raised bed. - Vicky Myers, Garden Coordinator, Mudeford Community Infant School.

Her Majesty’s Platinum Jubilee Year Seat

Her Majesty’s Platinum Jubilee Year

Issued In celebration of Her Majesty’s record-breaking Platinum Jubilee year, our exclusive special edition furniture has proven incredibly popular with NBB customers. With limited availability on a few best-selling lines, each furniture item features grey undercarriage and purple seats/tabletops to mark this momentous event in Her Majesty’s reign. One happy customer commented:  The seat is now assembled, and we are happy with it. The platinum jubilee colour scheme is lovely and something different from the run of the mill colours. I had not realised it came with a commemorative plaque so that is a nice touch!

St. Ronan’s Bowling Club

We recently supplied St. Ronan’s Bowling Club with some maintenance-free octagonal picnic tables for their outdoor seating area, being manufactured from 100% recycled plastic the tables are guaranteed for 25 years and will never rot, crack, or splinter. Jane Brown from the club said, We are thrilled with them, everyone has commented on how smart they look.

 I am absolutely delighted with the benches we received from you. We can’t believe how solid they are! The engraving is superb. We have bolted them all down and they’re in the Reflection Garden.

Talyllyn Railway

 As a 7.5 mile long Heritage Railway, we have a lot of benches along the line at our stations, and we wanted to get away from the maintenance intensive wooden options. We chose the recycled furniture as it fitted with our sustainability aspirations. We were especially pleased with the Octagonal Picnic Table which have proved to be extremely popular with our café customers.

Westerhope Primary School Buddy Bench

Westerhope Primary School

The children at Westerhope Primary are making good use of their beautiful new buddy bench - the grand prize in our Friendship Challenge held earlier this year.

What has the new buddy bench meant to the children at Westerhope Primary?

 It means I will always have someone to talk to or play with. - Year 4 pupil

 I love looking over to the buddy bench to see if there's anyone I can go check up on. - Year 4 pupil

 Our buddy bench has become a place for everyone, for any reason. It's a place where children feel they can go when they feel lonely and in need of a friend, a place to talk and to listen, a time to rest, reflect, to read or to simply be in the moment and breathe in the fresh air. We are so grateful to have won - thank you so much! – Mrs Hay (Reception teacher)

Crondon Park Golf Club

To welcome their club members back to the course, Crondon Park Golf Club got in touch to upgrade their clubhouse outdoor patio area with brand new dining sets and picnic tables, for maximum enjoyment of the 19th hole on sunnier days.

Remaining mindful of government advice, and members’ own desires to remain socially distanced in view of the pandemic, the recycled plastic furniture can be wiped clean between uses for simple infection control.

They opted for the best-selling Octagonal Picnic Table and Crew’s Mess Set, both in grey to best complement the surroundings.

St. Mary’s Old Boys RFC Octagonal Picnic Table

St. Mary’s Old Boys RFC

Following the easing of lockdown restrictions and a return to play for grass roots sports teams, St. Mary’s Old Boys RFC got in touch to kit out their clubhouse patio with brand new picnic tables for the coming season and beyond.

They opted for the Octagonal Picnic Table with green table tops in order to match their team colours, and were extremely happy with the “excellent new patio furniture” they received.

Made from thousands of recycled milk bottles previously destined for landfill, the tables are guaranteed to last maintenance-free for 25 years, meaning they will continue to look great for many a game and club social to come.

UWE Bristol

 We have recently invested in our outside space on campus and these picnic benches are fantastic. They are very durable, require low maintenance and are made of 100% plastic that fits perfectly with our sustainability commitment. We purchased many variations that include games table, standard and accessibility friendly options to ensure we support our student community. Donna Prince – Buildings Manager – The Students’ Union at UWE.

Chessington World of Adventures

 We looked at various options for outdoor furniture and made the decision to go with NBB. The furniture they produce exactly matched our criteria of being attractive, hard-wearing, safe and environmentally friendly.

It is our aim to ensure that all guests that visit our theme park feel comfortable, so we have purchased a variety of picnic benches to accommodate the diverse range of guests we have, including larger groups and wheelchair users. It is really pleasing to have found a supplier that can produce the furniture we require so our guests feel welcome as well as helping us to achieve our environmental goals. 

Farmer Palmers

 Our great working relationship with NBB Recycled Furniture began 6 years ago, when we purchased, and they installed, 10 fantastic picnic benches in 2013. They are still in excellent condition. When NBB approached us to see if we would like to be the first ever installation of their new Buddy Balance trim trail, we felt honoured to be chosen to let our little VIP’s trial it for them, smiled and quickly agreed.

Our farm park is born from nature, and as such, we aim to be as environmentally friendly as possible. Having sustainable play equipment made from recycled plastic fits perfectly with our ongoing commitment to reduce our environmental impact. We know it will be a huge hit and if a huge hit, we will be asking if we can keep it.

Picket Fencing

Chessington World of Adventures

For 2020 Chessington World of Adventures launched a brand new ride, recycled plastic picket fencing was installed around the attraction and for the queuing area.

Made from thousands of milk bottles which were previously destined for landfill, the fencing meets the sustainability goals of the park. It is guaranteed for 25 years, meaning the vibrant fencing will continue to look great for a long time to come.

G Fuller

Fantastic furniture, amazing service. So far we have two benches and a picnic table, I’m sure we’ll have more. Amazingly well built and easy to install. Plus, the delivery is, frankly a shock! It was SO fast it caught us out the first time, the next two were just as quick.

C Macleod

 The quality of this product is fantastic, solid build and very comfortable seating. I am very impressed with the fact that it looks like wood but is made of recycled plastic, no annual painting, a great idea and ideal with the changes in weather. I would recommend this product to everyone.

Thank you for all your assistance - a great Company to deal with. 

B & Ken Ledger

Garden Bench
Garden Planters

Eric Matuszewski

 I wanted to install some planters at home to teach my children about home grown vegetables and herbs. Having done some research, I discovered recycled plastic material was the perfect choice as it is guaranteed not to rot or corrode meaning it would last for many years. The service has been superb from start to finish, from my initial enquiry to delivery of the planters. Myself and my family could not be happier with the result, I highly recommend NBB and your products! 

St Mary’s Hospital

 We ordered a two-seater bench in memory of a former resident of our Almshouse complex. It arrived in good time, well packaged and was easy to assemble. We had a champagne unveiling by The Dean of Chichester yesterday, and there was 100% approval of the look and quality of this product. The plaque is beautiful and will keep our former resident alive in our memories. The bench looks like wood, is sturdy and comfortable even without cushions. We are delighted to be supporting the recycling of plastic in this way and will definitely purchase from you again. Thanks

Fencing

Chris Munday

 I purchased raw material from NBB to replace my broken wooden fence, finishing off the look with trellis and decorative plastic red acer. I also replaced the lawn with artificial grass, so I now have a completely maintenance free garden which will last for years! NBB dealt with my enquiry promptly and I cannot recommend them highly enough. 

Rachel Harvey

 The local Priest blessed the bench in Mums memory and the current Mayor did his bit. We also had a member of the House Of Lords among our guests as well as lots of other family and friends. The Town Council have also added a link from their Website for others to request memorial benches, so hoping you will receive more orders off the back of ours 

Memorial Round Picnic Table
Heavy Duty Raised Beds

Rob Green

 These bespoke heavy duty raised beds were ordered for an allotment to replace the existing wooden ones, they look great and over time all of the timber beds will be changed to recycled plastic. The material was chosen as it is extremely long lasting; it is eco friendly (manufactured from milk bottles) and it does not require annual upkeep such as staining/treating. 

John Taylor Hospice

 We’re extremely grateful for the very kind donation of a picnic table to our hospice. As a charity, we rely heavily upon the generosity of communities and businesses and we would like to say a big thank you for thinking of us. Our gardens are very important to patients, their loved ones, staff and volunteers so the picnic table is a wonderful addition to our grounds. The bench is a space where people can spend precious time together, relax and enjoy a cuppa or a bite to eat. It looks great, is very spacious and, as it’s made from recycled plastic, it will not rot so can be enjoyed by visitors and staff for years to come. Thank you

Jennie Wood

 Well what can I say except we love our son James's memorial bench. The service from first enquiry email to final correction of engraving was way above and beyond.The few issues we had were dealt with quickly and efficiently, at no extra cost, result is a lovely bespoke memorial bench for our son and brother that looks amazing and will stay looking amazing for years. Thanks to all NBB recycling furniture for producing such a fantastic bench and for exceptional customer service. I have already recommended NBB and will not hesitate to do so again.

Round Picnic Table

Rachell Platts

Our new bench arrived this weekend, it’s amazing! Knowing we’re helping the environment and getting such a good quality item makes the price worth while for me.

Every time anyone sits down my daughter tells them how many plastic bottles went into to making it! Lol 

Just in time for a few BBQ’s before the winter arrives. Customer service has been excellent thank you so much!

Highly recommended.

Bishop St Aldhlems Primary School

The children will love this new resource. It is always great to enhance our outdoor learning environment and provide the children with new and exciting role-play areas.

St Andrew's Church

The bench arrived yesterday and it is excellent. I have to say the photos don't do it justice! I suspect we will be purchasing another one in due course.

I would be grateful if you could pass our thanks to the delivery company. Their driver was extremely helpful and it wasn't the easiest location for him! 

Bright Homes

We ordered the Crew’s Mess Set to replace our existing timber outside furniture. We are very pleased with the quality of the product, as it is very strong and well-built.

We chose the new grey colour which look looks great, we were also very impressed that the fixings are concealed as these can look unsightly!

The product is guaranteed for 25 years so we’re sure it will be enjoyed for many years to come!

Boehringer Ingelheim

Just as feedback on the furniture - we are really happy with the furniture and think it makes a lovely addition to our onsite garden area.

Our employees have also given us great feedback (which is not often received for furniture items) and have been using the tables and benches over the last few days enjoying lunch and coffee meetings in the sunshine.

A really great quality product, very impressed! - thank you.

Aston Le Wall & Appletree

The bench arrived safely on Friday. We're very pleased with it and really looking forward to installing it in our local pocked park.

Thanks for all your help!

I've attached a photo of this complete with myself and my husband trying it out immediately after we had installed it in the pocket park!
