Outdoor seating concept

Outdoor armchairs are pieces of furniture designed specifically for use in outdoor environments, such as gardens, terraces, patios, balconies and outdoor recreational spaces. They are made with materials resistant to variable weather conditions, including exposure to the sun, rain and humidity, which differentiates them from furniture intended exclusively for indoors.

These armchairs combine functionality and aesthetics, offering comfort and durability for the enjoyment of users in open spaces. Its design can vary from classic and rustic to modern and minimalist styles, adapting to different decorative trends and use needs.

Wood and its treated variants

Wood is one of the most traditional and valued materials in the manufacture of outdoor armchairs. To ensure its resistance outdoors, tropical hardwoods such as teak, eucalyptus and cedar are used, which have natural properties against humidity and insects.

In addition, these woods are usually subjected to treatments with oils, varnishes or special sealants that prolong their useful life and maintain their original appearance despite constant exposure to the sun and rain. Wood provides a warm and natural aesthetic, highly appreciated in outdoor environments.

However, they require periodic maintenance to prevent deterioration, such as sanding and reapplication of protective products, especially in humid climates or with sudden changes in temperature.

Resistant metals and alloys

The use of metal in outdoor armchairs has become popular due to its robustness and durability. Materials such as aluminum, stainless steel and wrought iron are common in this furniture. Aluminum stands out for being light, resistant to corrosion and easy to manipulate, which facilitates the design of modern structures.

Stainless steel offers superior resistance to rust and adverse atmospheric conditions, although it is usually heavier. On the other hand, wrought iron provides a classic and elegant finish, but requires periodic anti-corrosion treatments to prevent rust.
