What makes recycled plastic seating the ideal outdoor furniture?

It’s easy to see the appeal of recycled plastic seating in your garden or outdoor space, especially when compared to other furniture alternatives on the market. NeoTimber’s recycled plastic seating has many advantages, ranging from its low maintenance qualities, to the premium designs available in our range. In this article, we will expand upon these benefits in greater detail, to further highlight why you should use recycled plastic seating options to populate your space. Let’s take a look.

The Strength Of Recycled Plastic Seating

One of the main benefits of recycled plastic seating is its sheer longevity, especially when compared to other less strong furniture alternatives, which can degrade over time. Unlike natural materials like timber, wicker, and rattan, recycled plastic is mostly weatherproof, needing only a simple wipe down to remove any standing water. With natural furniture alternatives, absorbed moisture can lead to all kinds of long term damage, including warping, splintering, and eventual complete decomposition. By instead choosing recycled plastic seating, you guarantee a greater structural security, and the confidence that your table and chair set will not collapse from beneath you!

We are so confident in the long-life qualities of our recycled plastic seating, that all of our products are afforded with a 25-year warranty, for both residential and commercial projects. Furthermore, once your furniture has reached the end of its natural life, it may be eligible to enter back into our take-back scheme, which reuses the recycled plastic and crafts it into something new. The take-back scheme allows you to contribute to a circular economy, and make more use out of materials that would otherwise be wasted. Compare this to natural materials, which cannot be reused if they have broken down completely, and would have to be replaced at some expense.

More Options To Choose From

Another key benefit in specifying NeoTimber’s range of recycled plastic seating is the sheer abundance of different options to choose from. Recycled plastic seating can be used for a range of different sectors and applications, and we offer a broad selection of products to accommodate specific requirements. For example, our round tables are perfect for the hospitality sector, and could be used to populate the outdoor seating space of a busy pub or restaurant. Similarly, our picnic tables are perfect for community projects and educational spaces, such as public parks and school playgrounds.

We are also committed to building furniture that is responsive to different needs. Our Junior A-Frame tables are perfect for use by children, whilst our Wheelchair Access A-Frame provides an allocated space for a wheelchair user to easily sit at the table. On top of how our range makes it easier for you to find recycled plastic seating to suit different functions, we also provides you with more aesthetic design choices too. For instance, you can choose our Sloper or City benches for a more traditional look, or instead opt for our more modern, simplistic Curved or Straight Edge benches.

The Full NeoTimber® System

With years of experience selling premium plastic outdoor products, when you buy from NeoTimber®, you know you are buying from quality. All of the material that makes up our recycled plastic seating is processed in the UK, and thoroughly checked for quality at every step of the process. Compare this to other furniture alternatives, and the homework needed to ensure you are buying something sustainable and long-lasting. For example, certain types of timber furniture may not be appropriatley treated to prevent rot or responsibly sourced, many plastic options use single-use virgin plastics, and some metal furniture is not properly powder-coating or oiled, making it prone to rust.

All of our furniture is available in a naturalistic brown, or a modern black. Both these colours will pair beautifully with the tones available in our pre-existing decking, cladding, balustrades, and fencing ranges, to help you build a complete NeoTimber® solution. We also have other recycled plastic products to help flesh out your outdoor project, including intricate planters, raised beds, and compost bins; all of which have the same low maintenance, eco-friendly credentials as our recycled furniture.

To conclude, there are many benefits to specifying NeoTimber’s recycled plastic seating, ranging from its low-maintenance and long life qualities, the broad range of designs on offer, and our commitment to contributing to a more sustainable, circular economy. Whilst many different types of furniture may have one or two of these advantages, it is rare to find a product that covers the whole spectrum. Save yourself the future headaches and opt for our recycled plastic seating, the help elevate your outdoor project.
