Product Overview: 8-Seater Rectangular Secondary Dining System

Maximise the capacity and versatility of your school’s dining estate. This 11+ years mobile unit eliminates the logistical clutter of loose furniture, offering a structured, 8-person rectangular station that facilitates rapid deployment and compact storage in high-traffic educational environments.

The Cobolt Advantage

  • Seamless Facility Management: Despite its generous seating capacity, this table nests into a slim vertical profile that glides through standard 1980mm internal doorways. This ensures effortless movement between the canteen and storage by a single staff member.
  • Advanced Safety Integration: The mechanism incorporates a triple-lock system: an open-position safety lock to prevent accidental folding, an intermediate hygiene lock for safe cleaning, and heavy-duty locking castors for total stability.
  • Industrial-Grade Hygiene: The 18mm high-density MDF core is moisture-resistant and capped with a high-pressure laminate. This non-porous construction is specifically built to withstand the rigorous sanitisation protocols of a busy secondary school.

Organisation & Sustainability

  • Bespoke Faculty Schemes: With 14 tabletop finishes and 11 vibrant stool colours, you can coordinate your dining furniture with school branding, house groups, or specific departmental zones.
  • Minimalist Maintenance: By integrating the seating into the frame, this system removes the "clutter zones" associated with loose chairs, allowing janitorial teams to sanitise both the unit and the floor significantly faster.
  • Circular Economy Readiness: In alignment with green procurement goals, 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: Every purchase includes our premier Gold Delivery Service. We handle the heavy lifting and transport at no extra cost, ensuring your budget is focused on high-quality equipment.
  • 50 Years of Mastery: We leverage half a century of commercial B2B expertise to supply furniture that genuinely survives the heavy-use reality of British educational trusts.
  • Industry-Leading 16-Year Warranty: Reflecting the unyielding quality of our British-welded steel frames, we provide a 16-year guarantee on all structural welds and the folding mechanism.

Ideal Environments for the 11+ Rectangular Dining Hub

Frequently Asked Questions

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

A: Yes. The folding mechanism is designed for single-person operation. Once nested, the table glides effortlessly on heavy-duty castors, making it easy for one person to wheel into storage.

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

A: Yes. When folded, the unit is engineered to pass through a standard doorway (1980mm), allowing for effortless transport through school corridors and halls.

3. Why choose a rectangular table over a round or octagonal one?

A: Rectangular tables are the most space-efficient for creating high-density seating. They allow you to create long, straight rows of dining stations, which often maximises the capacity of linear school halls.

4. Is the 735mm height suitable for secondary school students?

A: Absolutely. The 735mm height is the adult standard, perfectly suited for students aged 11+, university learners, and staff dining areas.

5. How does the safety lock work during dining?

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

6. Is the table surface resistant to moisture and staining?

A: Yes. The high-pressure laminate and water-resistant MDF core are designed to withstand frequent spills and heavy-duty daily sanitisation without swelling or warping.

7. Can we choose a different colour for every stool?

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 components of the unit.

Product FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

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

A: Yes. The folding mechanism is designed for single-person operation. Once nested, the table glides effortlessly on heavy-duty castors, making it easy for one person to wheel into storage.

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

A: Yes. When folded, the unit is engineered to pass through a standard doorway (1980mm), allowing for effortless transport through school corridors and halls.

3. Why choose a rectangular table over a round or octagonal one?

A: Rectangular tables are the most space-efficient for creating high-density seating. They allow you to create long, straight rows of dining stations, which often maximises the capacity of linear school halls.

4. Is the 735mm height suitable for secondary school students?

A: Absolutely. The 735mm height is the adult standard, perfectly suited for students aged 11+, university learners, and staff dining areas.

5. How does the safety lock work during dining?

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

6. Is the table surface resistant to moisture and staining?

A: Yes. The high-pressure laminate and water-resistant MDF core are designed to withstand frequent spills and heavy-duty daily sanitisation without swelling or warping.

7. Can we choose a different colour for every stool?

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 components of the unit.
