When designing our urban outdoor furniture range, we understood that tables face unique challenges—from placed keys and sliding plates to general public use. That's why we've engineered our tables with exceptional scratch-resistant properties.
Our tabletops primarily utilize two high-performance materials: thick, powder-coated aluminum and High-Pressure Laminate (HPL). The powder coating on our aluminum tables is more than a finish; it's a protective shield. Applied through an electrostatic process and cured under heat, it creates a hard, durable surface that resists scratches, chipping, and fading far better than standard paint.
For our HPL tops, multiple layers of cellulose fiber are impregnated with resins and fused together under intense pressure and heat. The result is an incredibly dense, non-porous surface that is highly resistant to scratches, impacts, and abrasions. This material is a staple in high-traffic commercial interiors for a reason—it's tough.
We subject both materials to rigorous testing, including standardized scratch tests like the Mohs Hardness Test and custom abrasion trials that simulate years of heavy use. This ensures they can withstand the demands of a bustling café patio, a public park, or a busy restaurant terrace.
Maintenance is straightforward. Most marks from daily use can be wiped away with a damp cloth. For tougher scuffs, a mild non-abrasive cleaner effortlessly restores the surface, keeping your outdoor space looking impeccable with minimal effort.
We back our products with a comprehensive warranty that specifically covers the integrity of the tabletop surface against scratching under normal use conditions, giving you confidence in your investment for the long term.
