Expressions LTD is a design and manufacturing company, fabricating custom Molds and Forms for concrete. We carry a large assortment of decorative concrete products, as well as a line of unique doorbells, house numbers, mailboxes, custom signage, and outdoor / garden products.
Bench Legs are sold individually: Ordering a quantity of 2 is required for a matching pair.
Made of high strength concrete, reinforced with chopped AR glass fibers.
Unlike the majority of concrete benches out there who use cheap sand only mixes, or use left over concrete from other projects that they weaken when they have to re-hydrate to fill the bench molds... we make our pieces from a specific concrete formula with over 6,000 PSI, for the longest durability and strength possible.
Available in natural grey concrete, colored concrete, acid stained, and an option for sealing the concrete.
Bench Tops and Bench Legs are sold individually, so need to be ordered separately and allow complete customization of your bench style and coloring.
Product Specifications:
Measurements: 16.5" High, 11" Long, 5.75" Wide.
Weight: 52 lbs.
Color: Using the drop down menu above, select the color desired. DIY project enthusiasts may want to consider ordering acid stain and sealer, and finishing their own project.
Note about acid stain colors: Olive, Turquoise, and Jade colors may darken or discolor in outdoor, wet environments.
Sealer: If desired, the concrete can be sealed. We use SuperSeal 2000 acrylic sealer, which is a wet-look sealer which protects the concrete and enhances the color. Other sealers can be used, upon a custom request (additional costs would apply).

Re-usable edge form liner to create a Fluted detailed edge on concrete.
Tri-Groove style, fluted edge detail.
Creates three indented groves, each about the size of a pencil, in the concrete edge.
Made of extremely durable polyurethane that can flex and stay strong.
Can be used in pre-cast or poured in place concrete work.
Cut to length easily with a utility knife. Join cut pieces using silicone.
Fast and easy to place in a mold, and quick to clean after use.
Good for hundreds of uses- Actually gets better with each use.
Product Specifications:
Measurements: 95 1/8"L x 2"H.
Mold Setup:
Place in mold and either silicone in place, or screw through a backing form into the Edge Form Liner (screw holes will disappear once you back the screws out).
Silicone a bead across the full length of the bottom of the Edge Form Liner to create a water-tight seal.
Use of form release is recommended, but usually not necessary. Form release generally will create a smoother finish on the concrete.
Vibrate concrete well, or use fingers along entire length of Form Liner to remove as many air pocket voids as possible.
Edge Liner Removal:
After the concrete is sufficiently set up (typically 2-3 days), remove the Edge Form Liner.
Removal is simple- start on one end, and slowly peel the Form Liner away from the concrete.
Concrete usually will have small 'bumps' which can be sanded off with a 200 grit sandpaper. These bumps tend to disappear the more the Edge Form Liner is used, as it becomes seasoned.
Fill any air pocket voids with a slurry mix. Cenospheres (sold separately) make slurry fill voids more easily, and with less shrinkage.
Edge Liner Care:
Clean with a stiff brush and water after each use. Any silicone left on the forms should be peeled or scraped off (the sooner the easier to remove). Any hardened concrete can usually be removed using a wire brush.
*Occasional imperfections may be present on the Edge Form Liners, and can be altered using a sharp utility knife, or a very abrasive sand paper or resin-bound grinding discs.

Standard Reverse: Tape measure has standard inch measurements shown on both sides of the tape blade, with the writing reversed so it can easily be read from either side. The measurements are shown all the way down to the 1/16" markings, so no more having to guess or count the slashes!

One side has Standard inch with numbered markings down to the 1/16" marks, and the other side has Metric, numbered every 10mm. The Flatback style blade can be bent to measure around any curve or radius easily.
