It's a valid concern, and a common one for anyone investing in quality outdoor furniture. Rust can quickly degrade the appearance and structural integrity of your pieces. For the highest level of rust resistance in our urban outdoor collections, we confidently recommend the Metropolitan Series.
The primary reason for its superior performance is its construction material: heavy-duty, powder-coated aluminum. Aluminum is inherently rust-proof because it does not contain iron, the element that reacts with oxygen and moisture to form rust. Instead, aluminum forms a protective oxide layer that shields it from corrosion.
The Metropolitan Series takes this a step further with a durable, electrostatically applied powder coat. This finish is baked onto the aluminum, creating a hard, seamless shield that is far more resilient than traditional liquid paint. It protects against chipping, fading, and scratching, which are the primary ways moisture can reach the metal underneath on other types of furniture.
This combination makes the Metropolitan Series ideal for all climates, from humid coastal areas to urban environments with high pollution. You can enjoy a modern, sleek design without the constant worry of maintenance. The furniture is designed to withstand the elements year-round, requiring only occasional cleaning with soap and water to look its best.
If rust resistance is your top priority, the Metropolitan Series is your most reliable choice for long-lasting, beautiful urban outdoor living.
