When you shop for furniture, you have to think about everything. Do you often have guests who perch on the arms of chairs at parties? Do your kids flip over the backs of sofas? Are you prone to spilling on your furniture and need a stain-resistant fabric? Your life and your style goals matter a lot in the process. However, there are also objective ways to save money and ensure quality. Hi, my name is Allie, and I love shopping, decorating, writing and creating a fun but functional home for my family. In my furniture blog, I want to combine it all, and I hope these posts help you.
Whether your café is in a vibrant beach resort, a busy town, or a dull country town, you need to think about lots of things when furnishing the place or fitting it out. If your café has an outdoor dining space, one of the things you'll have to consider carefully is the furniture.
Choosing the right outdoor furniture for your café may seem easy, but getting it wrong can lead to failure of your business. However, this doesn't mean that having the right one will guarantee success either, but it sure can assist you to create a space that your customers will love and one that will work for your business. While you can choose from a variety of materials like wrought iron, teak, or plastic, the following are reasons why resin wicker will work best for your café.
All Weather
The most significant feature of resin wicker furniture is that it's weather resistant, which makes it the perfect choice for outdoor purposes. During heavy rains, the water will stream off your furniture and you don't have to worry about cracks, flaking or peeling paint. Besides, it can withstand intense heat, humidity and extreme cold. The strands of resin wickers are often woven with UV inhibitors, which make them fade resistant in the scorching sun.
Durability
When getting resin wicker for outdoor chairs in your café, make sure you go for HDPE (high-density polyethylene) and not PVC because the latter may actually unravel and crack because of brittleness. HDPE is often stronger. Manufacturers of resin wickers will tend to build them with aluminium frames. Moreover, the internal bars from many manufacturers may be powder coated, and hollow aluminium tubes make the resin wicker furniture very lightweight, sturdy, and resistant to the elements. These features, combined with the weather-resistant ability, make resin wicker furniture more durable.
Maintenance
Cleanliness in your café is a must have. Resin wicker will offer you easy cleaning. This means that you don't have to worry about the fibres when washing it. Unlike other materials, such as natural wicker, resin wicker will not be damaged or splintered when scrubbed using a brush. Besides, since it doesn't absorb moisture, handles or armrests won't fall off or change shape regardless of how often you wash it.
Versatility
Unlike other materials such as aluminium that may require painting to change colour, resin wickers come in a variety of colours that can fit into about every motif or décor. Moreover, since it is fashionable and durable, it is ideal not only for your outdoor chairs but also the tables.
Take these things into consideration when talking with local suppliers about your café chairs and tables.
