Porphyr Flat Bench — Competition
Tax included where applicable. Delivery and installation arranged by your concierge.
SELVARNE Iron Room — calibrated, guaranteed, delivered in place
The Porphyr is the most-used seat in any strong house: adjustments that thud into place, a pad tuned for arch and shoulders, and a frame that ignores whatever decade throws at it.
Every frame begins as European 11-gauge steel, laser-cut, mitred and welded by fabricators who train for years before their beads are allowed onto a SELVARNE jig. Welds are ground where hands touch, seams are sealed, and the whole structure is powder-coated in our signature graphite over a zinc-rich primer — engineering you can feel in the first rep and still trust in the hundred-thousandth.
Design & Engineering
- Dual-density pads placing the skeleton where the exercise wants it
- Ladder-style back adjustment through incline settings that lock with a thud
- Handle and wheels placed so one person moves it without thinking
- Gap-free seat-to-back transition in the flat position
- Pivot geometry drawn from anatomical ranges, not manufacturing convenience
- Footplates and handles knurled or textured exactly where grip is earned

Care
Wipe upholstery with mild soap after use and avoid alcohol-based cleaners, which dry vinyl prematurely. Rotate high-wear pads annually where the design allows. Re-upholstery in the original graphite grain is available from our workshop for the life of the product.
Questions, Answered
What warranty applies?
Lifetime against bending under proper use on bars; ten years on plates, dumbbells and bells — a warranty written for training, not display.
What knurling does it have?
A precise, medium-depth diamond cut — secure under chalk and heavy loads, kind to skin across high-volume sessions. Passive zones are placed exactly where the lifts want them.
