BY-65 Cafeteria Bench Table

Description

Maximum Seating in a Tight Space

Tight turns and cluttered aisles can be a problem in a cafeteria during high traffic times. The SICO® BY-65 bench seating system helps relieve this congestion by maximizing the space use and cutting down the amount of clutter in your food service area.

Efficient Space Utilization

A great choice for a table that maximizes space utilization both in use and in storage. Benches take up less room than chairs and because they stay in a fixed position, they keep aisles clear and the room tidy. Other table units are big and bulky and take up a lot of room to store. The SICO® BY-65 nests easily for compact storage – taking 50% less space than others. They’re convertible, too! Remove the bolts in the benches so wheelchairs can be rolled up to a table, or to allow traditional chairs to be used for events that require extra seating.

Cleaning is Fast and Easy

With an easy to operate flip up bench, the SICO® BY-65 unit makes floor cleanup easy, especially since you don’t have to move the entire unit. This will save your custodians time and save those hard earned school dollars on labor costs.

Performance Promise

The SICO® BY-65 comes with a 15-Year Warranty and a Lifetime Warranty on welds.

  • Chrome or Powder-coat Finished Legs/Frame - Finished for durability, appearance, and ease of cleaning.
