• Long-term geometric stability of the wood: The preliminary seasoning and evaporation treatment of the raw material eliminates the internal moisture of the wood, preventing the structure from cracking, warping or moving as the hygrometric conditions of the church change.
• 32 mm monobloc structural solidity: The finger-jointing of the boards combined with millimetric calibration and the use of hardwood dowels ensures exceptional mechanical strength, eliminating wobbling or loosening of the joints even on a 200 cm span.
• Total absence of sagging and bending: The integration of reinforcement crossbars under the seat and the side support panel under the kneeler allows the pew to withstand heavy loads and dynamic use by several faithful simultaneously without deforming.
• Floor protection and quietness: The application of non-slip pads to the base prevents the pew from sliding during functions and protects precious floors (marble, terracotta or parquet) from scratches and scuffs.
• Aesthetic and functional customization: The availability of different finishes and the wide range of optional accessories upon quotation (such as Skai padding or shelves) allow the piece to be adapted both to the architectural style and to the required level of comfort.
• Optimal management of the flow of faithful: The calibrated overall dimensions keep the standard passage space between one row and another intact, ensuring a smooth and safe transit during the entry and exit from functions.

This 200 cm wooden pew finds its perfect placement within parish churches, cathedrals, sanctuaries and large liturgical halls. It is an ideal liturgical furniture piece for the configuration of main aisles where large spaces require long, stable and resistant seating to maximize the capacity for welcoming the faithful. Thanks to the selectable wood finishes and the 32 mm construction robustness, it is suitable for use in historical or modern environments exposed to seasonal thermal variations, withstanding the continuous influx typical of Sunday celebrations and community festivities.

The h1039_06 model is the correct choice when it is necessary to invest in a permanent sacred piece of furniture of the highest value and industrial robustness, capable of overcoming the risks of warping typical of long and cheap benches assembled with simple metal screws. It represents the optimal solution for parishes that want to eliminate future maintenance costs, thanks to a construction system entirely made of wood that uses hardwood dowels and special finger-joint glues. Choosing this pew means acquiring a majestic piece (200 cm length) that guarantees standard structural stability through lower reinforcement crossbars, while leaving total freedom to configure at a later stage, via quotation, specialized accessories such as brass plaques or Cordura padding.

What is meant by wood evaporation and drying and why is it essential for long 200 cm pews?

Evaporation and drying are controlled thermal treatments to which top-quality wood is subjected before processing. This process eliminates the internal tensions of the fibers and stabilizes the moisture level of the raw material. In 200 cm pews, this treatment is vital: by reducing internal moisture, it prevents such a long structure from undergoing twisting, warping or creaking due to the thermal and hygrometric changes typical of sacred buildings.

What does the finger-jointing of the boards consist of and what advantages does it offer compared to traditional joints?

Finger-jointing consists of milling the ends of the wooden boards to create serrated profiles that fit perfectly into each other, significantly expanding the contact surface for gluing. This technique, combined with the use of special high-resistance glues and hardwood dowels, creates a permanent chemical-mechanical joint that prevents the detachment or loosening of the parts even under the stress of multiple loads.

Is it possible to request padding for the seat and kneeler in an easily washable material?

Yes, among the optional extras available upon request and subject to quotation, fixed padding is provided for both seats/backrests and kneelers in Skai (synthetic leather). Skai is a completely waterproof, hygienic and wear-resistant material that allows for quick and deep cleaning with a damp cloth, ideal for high-traffic community facilities. Alternatively, Cordura fabric upholstery is available.
