The Best Materials for Outdoor Commercial Patio Furniture

From the fabric to the structure itself, outdoor furniture needs to be able to shake off the punishing effects of rain, wind, and sun. Babmar’s outdoor commercial outdoor furniture is built with quality materials tested for their weather-resistant durability. We use things like sturdy aluminum, zinc-coated galvanized steel, and sling fabrics. All of these have been weather-tested over the years.   

We also use Alumawood, aluminum that looks like wood. Synthetic teak wood is PVC-based, and synthetic wicker is made to permanently harden. With modern materials like these, we don’t have to sacrifice style for outdoor commercial furniture that will last.

Babmar is constantly seeking the latest materials that will handle the elements, but allow for the freshest design options. Shop our selection of commercial outdoor furniture!

Aluminium

Aluminum is lightweight, but very strong, making it great as a frame for commercial outdoor furniture like our outdoor chaise lounges. It won’t chip, fade, warp, rust, or attract mold, making it perfect for all climates. One of the cool things about aluminum is that it develops its own oxide layer which keeps maintenance at a minimum. 

Synthetic Teak Wood

Natural teak is beautiful, but its use is not very kind to the environment. Synthetic teak wood is a PVC composite that looks just like the real thing, but is lighter and more durable. It’s perfect for use in commercial outdoor furniture, since its both water and UV-resistant, and won’t cause splinters.

Synthetic Wicker

Long-lasting synthetic wicker is comfortable, waterproof and UV-resistant.  It’s also  easy to clean: dirt and dust practically slide right off of it.  Plus, it’s lightweight and looks terrific, easily woven into stylish patterns. That’s one reason Babmar uses high-quality synthetic wicker in outdoor furniture pieces like our outdoor sofas and outdoor bar stools. 

Iron

Iron has always been known as an  uncommonly strong material, one reason it’s often featured in patio furniture. It’s sturdy weight keeps it from flying around in windy weather. Plus, it holds up well against other elements like rain and sun. Commercial outdoor furniture that includes iron in its construction is durable and long-lasting.

Galvanized Steel

Galvanized steel is acclaimed for it resistance to rust, plus its longevity. Even against the harshest outdoor conditions, outdoor furniture featuring galvanized steel has been  known to last for decades.  This material is also great around elements like water and chlorine.

Alumawood

Alumawood combines the best of two worlds: lightweight, durable aluminum that’s constructed to mimic  the look of natural wood. It’s strong and practically maintenance-free, and will maintain it’s beautiful natural look for years.

Outdoor Sling Fabric

Sling fabric is perfect for outdoor furniture. It’s sturdy, water-resistant and will stand up to the elements for years. Plus, it’s available in so many colors and styles, and can be woven to create sun protection. This makes it an easy choice for our outdoor sofa seating, outdoor commercial umbrellas, and outdoor chaise lounges.

Types of Commercial Patio Furniture

There is such a wide variety of commercial outdoor furniture available, from seating options, to umbrellas, tables, bar stools, swings and much more.  You have many options to fit all kinds of spaces and climate conditions.  Consider Babmar’s comfortable outdoor sofa sets, which can be combined and  arranged into various group settings.

Factors to Consider When Buying Commercial Patio Furniture

Outfitting an outdoor space is much like buying furniture for the indoors: you need to consider the area and the parts that you want to emphasize. You need to know who will be using it, how many, and how often. Then, there is the quality of the materials: the weather elements of your outdoor space will be a key factor when choosing outdoor furniture.

Since 2004, Babmar has been the go-to source for high-quality commercial outdoor furniture. Our pieces are built to last, using  beautiful, sturdy materials that stand up to UV rays, rain, chlorine, and more. Plus, we create designs that will easily fit in with every kind of space, whether it’s a luxe hotel or restaurant, a high-end condominium complex, corporate office, even exclusive private properties.

Here are the essential factors to keep in mind when looking for the best commercial patio furniture.

Assessing Your Space

What kind of space are you outfitting: Large, small? How does the sun and wind impact it? How about water features: it it by a pool or near the ocean? Take into account any need for shade, and the amount of seating, And because outdoor spaces tend to be more casual, factor in pieces that can be easily moved and re-arranged as needed.

Number of Pieces Needed

On average, and at any given time, how many people will be using your outdoor space?  Our outdoor sofas can be combined in multiple ways to provide more seating. We offer chairs, swings, outdoor bar stools  and outdoor chaise lounges that guarantee comfort for all. 

Of course, you’ll need to consider tables, large or small. Depending on the sun and wind conditions, outdoor commercial umbrellas should also be in the plan.

Material Quality and Durability

Outdoor furniture requires construction that will stand up against the weather.  Materials like aluminum, synthetic teak and synthetic wicker, galavanized steel, and colorful, sun and water-repellent sling fabrics have been proven over the years. Babmar’s line of commercial outdoor furniture only uses these high-quality durable items to ensure years of comfortable use. That’s a smart investment in your outdoor space.

Style and Aesthetics

When outfitting outdoor spaces, clean lines and modern designs are always refreshing, as they effortlessly mirror the nature around them.. Plus, they offer a timeless quality that will remain appealing year after year. Minimalist designs, such as those offered by Babmar,  are easy to care for, and fit in with almost any kind of surrounding decor.  

Consider Comfort and Ergonomics

Commercial outdoor furniture will be used by many people and  many body types.  Having pieces strong enough to support them in comfort is essential.  Our furniture is built to be sturdy with firm cusions, and materials that “breathe” and dry quickly after a rainstorm. You’ll find supportive backs in our chairs and commercial chaise lounges and ergonomic designs in our commercial sofa seating that makes it easier to relax.

Budget Considerations

Buying quality outdoor commercial furniture saves you money in the long run, with construction and materials that hold up and don’t need replacing. Since 2004, Babmar has continually worked to provide durable outdoor pieces, and we’re constantly seeking better ways to save on manufacturing and materials. But our commitment to quality is something you can always count on to save you money.

Maintenance and Care

The materials we use in our Babmar outdoor commercial furniture are essentially maintenance-free. Our aluminum and galvanized steel pieces resist rust, warping, and chipping. Our fabrics are mold, water and sun-resistant; the synthetic wickers easily wipe down. When it comes to keeping them in shape and looking terrific, we build our pieces to be sturdy and care-free.

How to Care for Commercial-Grade Patio Furniture

Quality commercial outdoor furniture is built to be practically maintenance-free. Most fabrics should naturally resist water and mold, and dry quickly. Support materials and frames should take little more than the occasional wipe down with a mix of water and lemon to keep them looking their best. But sometimes, you need a little more.

Never use abrasive cleaners; a mix of soap and water, and a soft cloth is just fine.  If you see dots of mold, use a scrub brush and a commercial cleaner to gently remove them, rinsing with clean water. Don’t use a pressure washer on the slings in a chair or sofa, and NEVER throw them in the pool!

Most outdoor fabrics are stain-resistant, but you can find spot cleaners to handle trickier messes. And once or twice a year, some folks like to add a coat of wax to the aluminum or galvanized frames of their outdoor pieces to keep them looking shiny.
