Weather-Resistant Materials

Care Instructions

Our weather-resistant materials make spending time outdoors hassle-free, no matter what climate you call home.

Aluminum
Because of its strength and durability, aluminum is one of the best choices for outdoor use. Anodizing changes the surface to create a diamond-hard, weather-resistant material that does not rust.

Clean with soap and water every two weeks to remove grit and air pollutants that can pit the surface.

Powder-coated Steel
Powder-coating is a non-toxic industrial finish with incomparable durability. Since the powder coating process does not use solvents, emission problems are eliminated. When it is cured, it becomes a weather-resistant coating for our steel furniture.

Clean with a damp cloth containing mild dish soap as needed. Rinse and wipe dry.

Stainless Steel
The simple beauty of stainless steel will lend a modern look to your outdoor living area. Properly cared for, our outdoor grade stainless steel will last a lifetime.

In most climates, only infrequent cleaning with water is required. However, for prolonged exposure to salt air or areas with higher concentrations of air pollutants, a regular application of a mild, non-abrasive detergent rinsed with fresh water is recommended.

Plastic
The durable plastics used to make our comfortable outdoor furniture create a modern look that won't fade or change color and can be left outside year round.

Easy to maintain, hose off the surface periodically and spot clean with a soft, damp cloth.

Ipe Wood
A dense wood with a smooth surface, natural luster and rich, interwoven grain similar to rosewood. Highly resistant to the elements, Ipe is durable and low maintenance, making it ideal for outdoor furniture.

To help preserve the wood's rich color and smooth surface, periodically apply a penetrating preservative that protects against UV rays.
