Concrete street furniture and safety features applied in squares, parks and pedestrian zones

Public space is the most demanding testing environment for a concrete precast. It is used by thousands of people every day, exposed to vandalism, frost and intense mechanical stress. This is where the difference between a cheap mass-produced product and a concrete precast made by hand, from the right material, with an emphasis on detail becomes clear. At KLOCOK, we have been supplying concrete precast for public spaces since 1992, and some of these products are still standing in the same place today.

The photos in this section come from projects where our products are applied, there are squares, parks, pedestrian zones and public areas all over Slovakia. For each project we made concrete elements to order, different dimensions, different shapes, different surface finishes corresponding to the architectural concept of the place. We did the production, from the mold to the surface, by hand in our factory in Hranovnica.

Our most important references for public spaces include concrete furniture for Náměstie slobody in Malacky, concrete benches for the Skypark Bratislava residential complex, concrete stairs and slabs for SNG, facade elements for the Leopoldov Municipal Office, seats and prefabs for the Bory residential complex, and a concrete fountain for Zvolen.

Why is concrete better for public spaces than wood or metal?

Concrete in public spaces can last for decades without major repairs. It does not corrode like metal and does not rot like wood. With the right anti-graffiti coating, it resists vandalism better than most other materials. The total life cycle costs are significantly lower with concrete.

How long will concrete elements last in public spaces?

When properly designed, manufactured, and installed, concrete elements in public spaces can last 30 to 50 years without major repairs. Some of our products from the 1990s still stand in the same place today.

Do you collaborate with city architects and designers?

Yes, we work directly with architects, landscape architects and public space managers. We supply technical documentation, surface samples and consult on solutions before a binding order is placed.

Do you also produce concrete furniture for municipalities and smaller towns?

Yes, we produce for cities and small villages. The size of the project is not a condition, whether it is a bench for a village with a thousand inhabitants or a complete set of furniture for the revitalization of a city square, we handle each project with the same care.

Since its establishment in 1995, KLOCOK Poprad, s.r.o. has specialized in the custom production of architectural prefabricated concrete elements. It is a small-series or piece-manufacturing of unique concrete 3D elements for beautifying the exterior and interior.
