Barlow Tyrie is one of the world's oldest manufacturers of teak garden furniture, internationally recognized for their use of superior design elements and top grade construction and materials. Some of what makes Barlow so great: First Grade Teak: When a log is cut at the mill, each piece of timber that comes from it is graded for quality. First grade teak is the best because it makes the cleanest, most stable product. Lesser grades may contain wormholes, knots and general imperfections. Barlow Tyrie uses only first grade teak—not everyone does. Comfort & Design: Straight grain Java teak is kiln-dried to ensure stability and triple sanded on all sides for a velvet smooth finish. Care is taken to ensure that armrests are at the correct height, backrests are at the correct angle, and seat height is correct relative to the height of their dining tables. Wood slats are spaced close together for maximum comfort. Solid Construction: Furniture is only as strong as the joinery that holds it together. Barlow Tyrie uses solid teakwood with doweled mortise and tenon construction, the strongest manner to join wood together. All components are shaped from solid teak—Barlow never uses glued finger joints, which compromise furniture's quality and appearance. Durability: Barlow Tyrie uses only solid teak dowels and marine grade brass and stainless steel fittings, so your furniture will last for years to come. Their contemporary, mixed-material pieces feature durable, weather-resistant synthetic fabrics and powder-coated metals to ensure longevity in most climates. Germany-based Rausch Classics has been producing elegant, high-quality outdoor furniture for nearly fifty years. Their consistent use of top quality construction, innovative materials and timeless design elements ensures that their furniture will look great for years to come. Outdoor Wicker: Rausch's natural-looking synthetic wicker is resistant to sunlight and rain, easy to clean, and insensitive to differences in temperature and climate. That means it will remain supple and resist tearing even if left out in the rain. The Palm Beach deep seating collection features solid teakwood frames, while the coordinating synthetic wicker dining tables and chairs are built with sturdy—but lightweight—aluminum frames. All are available in your choice of Natural or Mocha finish, each featuring shade and texture variations for a more natural look. Long Beach Collection: Rausch's Long Beach collections is timelessly elegant, simple in design and entirely functional. The materials used—powder-coated aluminum tubes, polyester/PVC mesh coverings and solid teak accents—are perfectly suitable for outdoor use. Note about seaside usage: We do not recommend using metal furniture within three miles of salt water, because the resulting salt build-up may cause finishes to prematurely fade, crack or blister.
Designed for generations is how Skagerak Denmark has worded its slogan for years. The slogan covers several key aspects of our activities, approaches and actions. In one respect it means that we make our products to last for generations, both aesthetically and in terms of design, and that design is and has been one of our most important guiding principles for generations. Just as importantly, it means that through our actions, decisions and priorities we consider the needs of coming generations. Thus our slogan relates directly to our environmental policy. Skagerak Denmark continuously endeavors to provide the highest quality possible throughout the value chain. Accordingly, quality also involves an environmentally responsible manufacturing process based on sustainable, renewable resources and – just as importantly – respecting the people who in one way or another are affected by the manufacture of our products.
