MATERIALS
HIGH QUALITY MARINE-GRADE
We use only the highest quality materials and finishes for our furniture to ensure it is ready for the demands of outdoor spaces.
UV and fade-resistant with anti-corrode frames and fabrics, our furniture is designed to take on the elements while retaining its aesthetic and low maintenance.
TRIPLE POWDER-
COATED ALUMINIUM
Powder-coated Aluminium is a fluidised powder coating applied to the aluminium structure by electrostatic spray and then stoved at a temperature between 160°C (320°F) and 210°C (410°F).
This process gives a lightweight but sturdy finish that is maintenance-free, cool to the touch and durable. Perfect for outdoor furniture.
ROPE & STRAP
Rope & Strap are stylish and durable finishes made from an Olefin outer and polyester filling. UV, mildew resistant, and easy to clean with water or a specific mild detergent. They are ideal for outdoor furniture poolside or by the sea due to their resistance to seawater and chlorine.
TEAK
Our Teak wood is sourced from ecological plantations and aged 60 to 80 years to ensure superior quality. This quality teak finish performs well and gives a natural aesthetic to outdoor furniture.
FAUX TEAK
Used for table tops, chair slats and visual enhancements, Faux Teak is a non-porous composite material that looks and feels like high-quality natural wood and is incredibly durable.
It won’t crack or splinter, is UV resistant, environmentally friendly, and most importantly, doesn’t “age”. Our Faux Teak is dyed through, making it anti-scratch, anti-mould and anti-mildew.
HIGH PRESSURE
LAMINATE (HPL)
Manufactured at high pressure and temperature from a flat thermo hardening resin-based sheet with up to 70% wood-based fibres, the visible side is covered in a decorative surface using the patented Electron Beam Curing (EBC) technology.
The result is a highly stable, dense panel with a good strength-to-weight ratio, excellent colour stability and weather resistance. Available in 13mm thickness.
Glass
(acid-etched)
Our hardened, acid-etched top has an intrinsic tensile strength of 10,000N/mm², is scratch-resistant and has a thermal conductivity of 0.8W/mk. Available in an 8mm thickness and suitable for table tops.
Ceramic
Ceramic is hard-wearing, scratch, heat, UV, humidity, mould, fungi and frost resistant. Created by wet-grinding clay, granite and metamorphic rock raw materials, with a fieldspa component and ceramic pigments, it is then specially shaped in a compactor and sintered at 1200°C with gas firing.
Easy to maintain with resistance to detergents and cleaning products. Available in three thicknesses: CEW/CED 6mm and CESB/CEBO 9.5mm or 11.5mm.
Wicker
(round cord)
Wicker is a synthetic, high-quality thermoplastic fibre which is toxin-free, ecological and 100% recyclable. It is ideal for use around the pool or deck due to its resistance to UV, seawater and chlorine and being easy to maintain. Available in a 2mm thickness.
Sling
fabric
Developed to withstand wear and tear and all types of weather conditions, the durability of sling knows few bounds; colours remain vibrant and can cope with years of continuous outdoor exposure and heavy usage. UV and stain resistant, making it the perfect choice for outdoor furniture poolside or by the sea.
Fabric
Fabrics used in our outdoor furniture are designed to perform in demanding conditions whilst retaining their looks and vibrant colours. The fabric is easy to clean – UV, seawater, chlorine resistant, and repellent for a durable, high-performance finish.
