PROJECT: Custom outdoor seating for city council CLIENT: Ipswich City Council SCOPE OF WORKS: Design, fabricate and install new outdoor seating for inner-city precinct
Ipswich City Council sought durable and visually appealing outdoor seating solutions for a new inner-city precinct designed to accommodate large-scale public events, including the annual Christmas Carols and festive celebrations. The goal was to provide high-quality, robust seating that would not only enhance the aesthetics of the area but also withstand frequent use and ensure long-term site security and safety.
Park Furniture Australia was selected to design and manufacture custom aluminium outdoor settings that met these specific requirements. Our expertise in outdoor furniture allowed us to develop solutions that balanced strength, durability, and style, creating seating that could endure the demands of a busy urban environment while maintaining a sophisticated appearance.
Structural integrity was a top priority for this project. The furniture needed to be heavy and secure enough to remain in place during high-traffic events and adverse weather conditions. Using high-grade aluminium, we engineered settings that provided exceptional durability without compromising on design. The chosen colour scheme—gloss white and a Blue Gum woodgrain effect—ensured that the furniture complemented the surrounding landscape and added a modern yet natural touch to the precinct.
By working closely with Ipswich City Council, we successfully delivered the custom settings on schedule for the 2024 Christmas Carols and festive season. The final installation exceeded expectations, providing a functional and stylish seating solution for community events. The council was highly satisfied with the outcome, and the precinct is now equipped with premium outdoor seating that will serve the community for years to come.

Park Furniture Australia (PFA) was proud to partner with Kingscliff Public School for their exciting new school extension. As a forward-thinking institution, Kingscliff Public School wanted outdoor seating solutions that combined functionality, durability, and creativity to complement their new modern facilities. PFA stepped in to deliver custom-designed furnishings that elevated the school’s outdoor spaces, providing both practical and aesthetic value for students, staff, and visitors alike.
Kingscliff Public School engaged PFA to design, fabricate, and install a range of outdoor seating tailored to their unique vision. The scope of works included crafting settings for the new extension that would align with the school’s scheduled timeline for the grand opening. With a strong emphasis on innovative design, durability, and creating an inviting environment for students, the project required meticulous attention to detail from concept to installation.
PFA began the project with an in-depth consultation process to fully understand the school’s goals and requirements. The school requested outdoor seating that would:

Durability and safety were top priorities for this project. PFA utilised premium aluminium and recycled plastic to craft the outdoor furniture, ensuring it could withstand constant use and exposure to the elements without sacrificing style. The new café and lunch settings were enhanced with integrated chessboards, offering students an opportunity for strategic play and mental engagement during breaks. The use of vibrant pastel colours added a cheerful touch, promoting a positive and welcoming atmosphere. For smaller, semi-circular areas, PFA incorporated circular settings to seamlessly fit the space while maintaining the design’s overall cohesion. These settings were both functional and visually striking, contributing to the school’s innovative approach to outdoor space design.
To ensure a smooth and stress-free process for Kingscliff Public School, PFA provided installation services as part of the project. The team worked closely with the school to coordinate the installation timeline, ensuring all furnishings were in place ahead of the grand opening. The seamless installation process included precise placement of the custom outdoor settings, including those integrated into the new feature walls. The result was a cohesive and polished look that tied the outdoor spaces together beautifully.
The completed project was met with enthusiastic approval from Kingscliff Public School.

Aluminium seating offers numerous advantages for schools, making it an ideal choice for both indoor and outdoor areas.
Durability: Aluminium seating is built to last. It resists corrosion, rust, and wear, even in challenging weather conditions. This ensures a long lifespan, reducing the need for frequent replacements and saving schools money in the long term.

Safety: PFA’s aluminium seating is designed with safety in mind. Smooth edges and sturdy construction ensure that students can use the furniture without risk of injury, making it suitable for children of all ages.
Aesthetic Appeal: Aluminium seating boasts a modern and sleek appearance, enhancing the visual appeal of school grounds. Customisation options, such as powder-coated colours, allow schools to match the furniture to their branding or aesthetic preferences.

PROJECT: Custom aluminium picnic seating fabricationCLIENT: Ivory Rock CampgroundSCOPE OF WORKS: Design, fabricate and deliver 18 custom aluminium seating picnic tables with custom umbrellas
Ivory Rock, a campground who regularly hosts events, approached Park Furniture Australia (PFA) to enhance their outdoor seating options in preparation for upcoming events. They were in need of durable, functional, and visually appealing picnic tables and outdoor settings that would complement the natural surroundings while accommodating large groups of visitors comfortably. Their requirements included seating that was weather-resistant, aesthetically appealing, and budget-friendly.
PFA supplied Ivory Rock with six of our popular Barrakula picnic tables and seat settings, crafted with aluminium outdoor seating designed to withstand the outdoor elements.

PFA provided umbrellas with the third batch of Barrakula settings, attaching them to the tables to create a more comfortable, shaded environment for visitors to relax and enjoy their surroundings.

As the summer months approach, the need for well-designed, functional, and durable park shelters becomes essential for the comfort and safety of parkgoers. At Park Furniture Australia (PFA), we understand the crucial role that park shelters play during warmer months, providing relief from the harsh sun, enhancing the usability of outdoor spaces, and encouraging community engagement.
At Park Furniture Australia, we offer a wide range of park shelters and outdoor furniture solutions that are eco-friendly, durable, and designed to last. Whether you are looking for aluminium park shelters or sustainable options like ECOPLASWOOD recycled plastic, we have the right solutions to make any park or outdoor area safe and comfortable during the hottest months of the year.
Why Park Shelters Are Essential During Warmer Months
1. Protection from Harmful UV Rays
One of the main reasons park shelters are so critical in summer is their ability to provide shade and protection from the sun’s harmful UV rays. Prolonged exposure to UV rays can lead to skin damage, sunburn, and even skin cancer. By incorporating aluminium park shelters and recycled plastic park shelters into outdoor spaces, councils and developers can ensure that park visitors have access to shaded areas, significantly reducing the risk of these harmful effects.
Shelters are particularly important in places with high foot traffic, such as parks, commercial spaces, and picnic areas. By providing shade, these structures enhance the comfort and usability of the space, ensuring visitors feel safe and comfortable, no matter the weather conditions.
2. Encouraging Longer Outdoor Visits
During the warmer months, extreme heat can deter people from spending extended periods outdoors. Park shelters act as a reprieve from the intense sun, encouraging families, children, and elderly visitors to stay longer and enjoy the amenities of the park. Whether it’s relaxing under a shelter during a family gathering, sitting in a shaded space in a recycled plastic park shelter, or aluminium seating areas while children play, shelters enhance the overall park experience.
Aluminium park shelters are not only practical but also stylish and customisable to fit the design of any outdoor space. They contribute to a more inviting atmosphere, transforming parks into year-round destinations where visitors can socialise, relax, and exercise, regardless of the temperature.
3. Durable and Low-Maintenance Solutions
Both aluminium park shelters and recycled plastic outdoor furniture are known for their durability and low maintenance requirements. Unlike wood, which can rot or warp over time, recycled plastic park shelters and aluminium seating are resistant to weathering, corrosion, and UV damage. This means they maintain their appearance and structural integrity for years, even when exposed to the harsh Australian climate.
In addition to their long-lasting nature, aluminium park shelters and recycled plastic outdoor furniture are incredibly easy to maintain. With little more than occasional cleaning required, these materials offer a cost-effective solution for councils and park managers who want to ensure their park infrastructure remains in excellent condition with minimal upkeep. The robust nature of our park shelters ensures that our park furniture stays in top condition for years, even in high-traffic environments like playgrounds, public parks, and recreational facilities.
4. Eco-Friendly and Sustainable
At Park Furniture Australia, we are committed to eco-friendly manufacturing practices and sustainability. Our ECOPLASWOOD range of products is made from 100% recycled plastic, providing a durable and environmentally friendly alternative to traditional materials. Recycled plastic park shelters offer the same level of durability as traditional materials like wood or metal but with added environmental benefits. By choosing ECOPLASWOOD, you contribute to reducing waste and promoting the use of sustainable resources in park furniture.
Additionally, we offer green aluminium solutions, which refer to aluminium that is produced using environmentally friendly methods. This includes utilising renewable energy sources and minimising carbon emissions during production. Green aluminium is fully recyclable, ensuring that any aluminium park shelter or aluminium seating we manufacture is part of a sustainable lifecycle, from production to end-of-life recycling.
By opting for green aluminium park shelters, developers and councils can minimise their environmental impact while creating safe, durable outdoor spaces. This sustainable choice supports eco-friendly practices and contributes to long-term environmental preservation.
At Park Furniture Australia, we are proud to offer eco-friendly options that include green aluminium solutions, making us a leader in sustainable outdoor furniture.
5. Versatile Design and Customization
Another key advantage of our park shelters is their versatility. We offer customisable shelter designs that can be tailored to suit a variety of outdoor spaces. Whether it’s a large recycled plastic park shelter for a busy community park or a sleek aluminium park shelter for a small urban space, we can work with you to create a solution that meets your specific needs.
Our shelters are available in various sizes, shapes, andcolourss, ensuring they can complement any landscape or environment. Additionally, we offer a range of seating options, including aluminium seating, which pairs perfectly with our shelter designs. By creating cohesive outdoor furniture solutions, we help you maximise both the functionality and visual appeal of your park or recreational area.
6. Enhancing Community Engagement
Park shelters are essential for fostering community engagement and creating spaces where people can come together. Whether it’s a family picnic, a community event, or a casual gathering, shaded areas provide the perfect environment for people to relax, socialise, and enjoy the outdoors. With eco-friendly options like recycled plastic outdoor furniture and green aluminium solutions, communities can take pride in knowing that their park spaces are not only comfortable but also sustainable.
