Shipping

What is the typical shipping method?

Shipping methods may vary, but most ship via FedEx. Depending on your needs, you may choose to use your own shipping partner. Regardless, your sales representative will help you find the best shipping method for your order.

Material

What is the difference between HDPS and HDPE?

HDPS stands for high-density polystyrene. HDPS is lighter and more rigid than HDPE (high-density polyethylene) and thus is more load bearing. It’s also easier to manufacture and assemble HDPS products with a real-wood look. However, HDPE is a more flexible material, which means it can take stronger impacts without breaking.

Does the furniture need to be covered?

Our furniture is designed to resist weathering in any type of climate, whether it's rain snow, ice, or wind, you can keep your furniture uncovered and outdoors year-round!

What grade stainless steel do you use?

We use 304-grade stainless steel hardware in our products, which is hidden to keep with the natural wood look.
