You may have had the time to browse a couple of places in your local area, and found that their commercial outdoor furniture is simply too expensive for your budget.  Many local companies and resources for these items can get away with charging too much for their items because there isn’t much competition.  For those who want their outside furnishings right away, they have to pay the high prices or they have to go elsewhere.  If you are not in a hurry to purchase the things you want, you don’t have to go with the overpriced local places, instead you can spend some time price shopping, which will allow you to get the most for your money.

A great option when you are looking for outdoor furniture but aren’t sure where to get it and you aren’t sure what you need, is to put a professional designer on the job.  Many designers have the connections that are needed to not only find the type of equipment you need, but many times they can receive contractors discounts or they simply have good working relationships with the suppliers.  Remember when you hire a professional that the project is still yours and you should still have a say in what is going on.  Many designers can get carried away, which can mean that you end up with a finished project that doesn’t mean your needs or your vision, and many times this can mean that you exceed your budget.

If you want a great resource for outdoor furniture, you may want to turn to the internet for wonderful variety, great prices, and simply a convenient way to view and order the items that you do need.  If you want to deal with a company that specializes in providing equipment to those that need to create or update an outside area, you will likely find the www.outdoorchaise.com website very useful.  This is a company that has quite a bit of experience, many different style and pricing options, as well as a dedication to providing consumers with exactly what they need.

Many people go to their local superstore and simply buy the first things they see.  The danger in this is that you may pay good money for the items, but because they are not meant to be used over and over again, they will probably wear out very quickly and you will need to invest in more outdoor furniture.  Instead of throwing your money away on less than suitable products, why not get it right the first time and buy the things that you want and will last?

Many people allow for their decorator to call all the shots when they are creating a new area for their staff or their clients to enjoy.  While a decorator can give you some great tips as to how you can make the most of your space, you shouldn’t let them decide what you get.  Take their advice and information to heart, and then pick the types of things that you want.  If you have a vision, you are one step ahead of many people who are creating a space outside.  Now you simply need to find the right outdoor furniture for you and your space.

Have you thought about buying the items that you need from a wholesale business?  If so, you aren’t alone, but the problem is that if you are unhappy with something you usually cannot return the products.  Saving money is only as worthwhile as the products you are purchasing.  Shopping wholesalers often seems like a great idea because the prices are really low, but you have to ask yourself when the prices are too good to be true why they are so great.  You shouldn’t have to buy these items every year or a couple times a year, and you may end up doing this when you work with the wrong wholesaler.  Instead of shopping for the cheapest items, look for items that will hold up over the long term and will look good, too!

If you want to buy outdoor furniture from someone you can trust, start by visiting www.outdoorchaise.com for a great selection of items that will hold up over time, add style and comfort to your space, and will suit your style and your budget.  This is a company that deals with spaces big and small, business oriented needs, and furnishings for parks, neighborhood associations, and more.

Why should resin furniture not be bought at retail for commercial use?
The products sold at retail are for residential use only. Resin retail furniture is not recommended for commercial use.  Resin furniture sold at retail is labeled “for residential use only” and carries a one year consumer product warranty.

What makes National Outdoor Furniture, Inc. commercial resin furniture different than the resin furniture sold at retail?
Commercial furniture comes in different styles and colors specifically designed for food service and hospitality use. It is available only from authorized food service equipment and/or hospitality dealers. It generally carries a three-year manufacturer’s commercial warranty (depending on the furniture category) compared to a one-year warranty for products sold at retail.

What makes National Outdoor Furniture, Inc. resin different from other plastic furniture?
Some manufacturers use one “recipe” to manufacture all their resin products. Our manufacturer however, uses special blend of raw materials for each product, depending on the product’s flexibility, durability and safety requirements. Also we do not use recycled plastic material to manufacture their furniture.

Is this furniture made in the USA?
Yes.

What is resin?
Resin is a blend of several ingredients including polypropylene, calcium, pigments and chemical additives. Polypropylene, a by-product of the oil refining process, gives the product its resistance to most common food stains, moisture, salt air and chlorine. It will not trap nor harbor germs, fungi or bacteria. Calcium carbonate or talc give the product its rigidity. Pigments give the product its color. Chemical additives provide resistance to static build-up, fading, heat and ultra-violet light. We may also include polyproplene copolymer in the formulation of furniture where resilience and resistance to repeated use is needed.

Is this furniture made of recycled plastic material?
Our resin furniture is made of 100% first quality prime materials.
Other manufacturers may use recycled plastic materials and/or excesive amounts of calcium carbonate to reduce their costs and/or make the product feel heavier. This practice always results in an inferior products with no guarantee of consistency or performance for any type of use. It also makes the product unsafe, more brittle, and more prone to breakage.

Will the furniture fade in the sun?
We use the most advanced ultra-violet light stabilizers to resist discoloration by the sunlight, twice as long as retail-grade plastic furniture.

Is this furniture packaged for LTL and drop shipments?
Yes. Our manufacturer packages its tables and chairs specifically to minimize the risk of freight damages. Low stacks of resin chairs on wide pallets increase the stability of the stack and facilitate handling with fork trucks. Most retail plastic chairs are packaged on small skids, the size of the chair footprint, only suitable for transportation in full trucks of that one product.
Our manufacturer is the only resin furniture manufacturer who also packages all chairs in 4 per carton. This packaging greatly facilitates handling and storage.

Are your molded melamine tabletops suitable for food service use?
Yes. Melamine is the chemical polymer used to make ashtrays and dinnerware. It resists scratches, cigarette burns, food stains, hot plates, repeated cleaning and fading from the sun.

Are molded melanine tabletops suitable for outdoor use?
Yes. Ice, rain, snow, or sunlight will not damage the tabletops. Of course, storing your furniture in a protected area during the off-season will keep your furniture looking new that much longer.

Are melamine tabletops made of particle board?
No, Melamine tabletops are not high-pressure laminates of particle board glued with Formica. They are molded from a material made of melamine impregnated wood chips and melamine impregnated surface paper, fusion-bonded to resist delaminating and water penetration.

What makes National Outdoor Furniture, Inc. different from other resin furniture distributers?
National Outdoor Furniture, Inc. is commited to selling brand name, safe and innovative resin furniture specifically made for the food service and hospitality customer. Our manufacturer is the only resin furniture manufacturer in North America to have dedicated an entire division to this market, with sales professionals, factory warehouses and specific products over 17 years.

Is this furniture available to ship immediately?
Yes, our resin line carries stock in full masterpacks at two warehouses in PA. Our quick-ship program allows an average delivery time of seven to ten business days from receipt of the order, plus transit time.

How can I clean commercial resin furniture?
Resin furniture is easy to maintain by following these simple cleaning tips. Use a mild detergent such as dish soap, mixed with water and applied with a soft cloth for most common dirt and stains. Murphy’s Oil Soap® is highly recommended because it is chemically neutral. NEVER use any cleaner with an abrasive scouring pad. It will scratch the finish which will make the product more prone to staining. A patch test should be conducted prior to cleaning stubborn stains or scuff marks on an inconspicuous area of the furniture. Other cleaning procedures include products such as general, non-abrasive, household cleaners such as Windex®, Fantastik®, or 409® is often helpful in removing various stains. Star brite®, WD-40®, Goo Gone® will often remove stubborn stains. A 10% solution of vinegar or bleach is also recommended. Careful application of mineral spirits or rubbing alcohol followed by immediate rinsing is also recommended. While solvents are not generally recommended, careful application on sticky, sap-like, or carbon-based stains immediately rinsed off with clean water will work as a last resort.

Shorea has a remarkable ability to withstand the effects of wind, rain, sun and snow. Left untreated, shorea will weather naturally to a warm shade of gray.

During wet weather, some surface roughness may develop but over a period of about one year the natural weathering process will stabilize. Some hairline cracks may appear but these are only on the surface and in no way effect the structural integrity of the furniture.

We believe this is the best way to “maintain” your bench. Sit back, enjoy the scenery, and do nothing at all. Let nature take its course by turning your bench into a beautiful rich work of art.
