Rugged Benches for Tough Environments

We often get asked by customers if our porch swings, swing beds, and stand-alone benches can cope in tough environments and harsh climates. As you might expect, it depends on the material, whether it is outdoor-ready furniture. Our garden benches are mostly handcrafted from a wide variety of materials such as natural wood and synthetic lumber, including our extremely durable recycled plastic benches that are made from eco-friendly poly lumber.

The ones made of natural wood are either innately durable and strong, so they can be relied upon to be left outdoors or went through a treatment process to prepare for some sun and rain exposure.
