If any of you visited Hampton Court this year, you’ll appreciate the headline. It was scorching hot! Because of the weather we spent a lot of time on the stand talking with people who were surprised to find that our metal tree seats and benches weren’t any hotter than their wooden counterparts.
That’s because stainless steel doesn’t hold the heat as much as other materials and when polished is super reflective. Our painted benches with their lacquered surfaces also reflect the sun’s heat, meaning they aren’t any hotter than traditional wooden varieties. Metal really is magic when it comes to outdoor furniture at any time of the year.
