Product Overview: 12-Seater Rectangular Primary Dining System

Optimise your school’s floor space without compromising on pupil comfort. This 12-person rectangular unit eliminates the noise and safety hazards of loose chairs, providing a high-capacity, organised dining station that facilitates rapid deployment and effortless storage.

The Cobolt Advantage

  • High-Capacity Efficiency: Seating twelve students on a single mobile unit, this table is the ultimate solution for schools managing large pupil numbers within tight lunch sittings, significantly reducing the time required for hall transitions.
  • Safety-Engineered Logistics: Despite its 3-metre operating length, the unit folds into a slim vertical profile that glides through standard 1980mm internal doorways. The counter-balanced folding mechanism allows for safe, single-handed operation.
  • Moisture-Resistant Durability: The 18mm high-density MDF core is bonded with water-resistant laminate and finished with high-impact edging. This non-porous construction is built to withstand the rigorous daily sanitisation and frequent spills of a busy primary canteen.

Organisation & Sustainability

  • Bespoke Colour Zoning: Customise your dining hall with 14 tabletop finishes and 11 vibrant stool colours. Use varied combinations to assist with house-group organisation or to create a bright, engaging atmosphere for younger learners.
  • Hygienic Maintenance: Integrated stools remove the "clutter zones" associated with traditional chairs. The open-frame design allows janitorial teams to sanitise both the unit and the floor beneath it up to 50% faster.
  • Circular Economy Ready: In alignment with green procurement targets, this unit is 100% recyclable. At the end of its extensive service life, the steel, timber, and plastic components can be ethically processed.

The Cobolt Standard

  • Free Mainland UK Delivery: We handle the heavy lifting. Every purchase includes Free Mainland UK Delivery via our premier Gold Service, ensuring your tables arrive in showroom condition.
  • 50 Years of Mastery: We leverage half a century of B2B manufacturing insight to produce furniture that genuinely survives the relentless daily punishment of the British education system.
  • Unrivalled 16-Year Warranty: Reflecting the superior quality of our British-welded steel frames, we offer an industry-leading 16-year guarantee on all structural welds and the folding mechanism.

Ideal Environments for the 12-Stool Rectangular Dining Hub

This high-capacity unit is the definitive choice for Primary School Multi-Use Halls where seating density is a priority. Its linear rectangular design is perfect for creating long, organised dining rows, making it equally effective for Breakfast Clubs and After-School Activities.

  • 685mm Primary Height — Ergonomically scaled for children aged 5-11 years to ensure correct and comfortable dining posture.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Can one person safely fold and move a table of this size?

A: Yes. Despite the 3080mm length, the counter-balanced folding mechanism is designed for single-person operation. Once nested, the 88kg table glides smoothly on heavy-duty castors.

2. Will this table fit through standard internal school doors?

A: Yes. When folded, the unit is engineered to fit through a standard height doorway (1980mm), allowing for effortless transport between halls and storage areas.

3. Why should we choose the 12-stool version over the 8-stool model?

A: The 12-stool model is the most space-efficient option for high-capacity schools. It allows you to seat 50% more pupils per unit, reducing the total number of tables needed to be deployed and stored.

4. Is the 685mm height correct for primary school children?

A: Absolutely. The 685mm height is the adult-approved standard for children aged 5-11, providing the correct ergonomic alignment for safe and comfortable dining.

5. How do we ensure the table doesn't fold while pupils are eating?

A: The unit features a mechanical Open-Position Safety Lock. Once deployed, this lock prevents the table from moving back into the storage position until manually released by a staff member.

6. Are the surfaces easy to keep sanitised?

A: Yes. Both the laminate top and plastic stools are non-porous and wipe-clean. The Intermediate Cleaning Lock allows staff to partially fold the table to reach central areas safely.

7. Can we mix and match different stool colours?

A: Yes. With 11 stool colours available, you can mix and match per table to help with house-group organisation or to create a vibrant, multi-coloured canteen aesthetic.

8. What is covered under the 16-year warranty?

A: The 16-year commercial warranty specifically covers the structural integrity of all steel welds and the entire internal folding and locking mechanism—the most critical moving parts.

Product FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Can one person safely fold and move a table of this size?

A: Yes. Despite the 3080mm length, the counter-balanced folding mechanism is designed for single-person operation. Once nested, the 88kg table glides smoothly on heavy-duty castors.

2. Will this table fit through standard internal school doors?

A: Yes. When folded, the unit is engineered to fit through a standard height doorway (1980mm), allowing for effortless transport between halls and storage areas.

3. Why should we choose the 12-stool version over the 8-stool model?

A: The 12-stool model is the most space-efficient option for high-capacity schools. It allows you to seat 50% more pupils per unit, reducing the total number of tables needed to be deployed and stored.

4. Is the 685mm height correct for primary school children?

A: Absolutely. The 685mm height is the adult-approved standard for children aged 5-11, providing the correct ergonomic alignment for safe and comfortable dining.

5. How do we ensure the table doesn't fold while pupils are eating?

A: The unit features a mechanical Open-Position Safety Lock. Once deployed, this lock prevents the table from moving back into the storage position until manually released by a staff member.

6. Are the surfaces easy to keep sanitised?

A: Yes. Both the laminate top and plastic stools are non-porous and wipe-clean. The Intermediate Cleaning Lock allows staff to partially fold the table to reach central areas safely.

7. Can we mix and match different stool colours?

A: Yes. With 11 stool colours available, you can mix and match per table to help with house-group organisation or to create a vibrant, multi-coloured canteen aesthetic.

8. What is covered under the 16-year warranty?

A: The 16-year commercial warranty specifically covers the structural integrity of all steel welds and the entire internal folding and locking mechanism—the most critical moving parts.
