Giving You the Best in Outdoor: Cedar Furniture

admin — Wed, 20 Jan 2010 21:03:33 +0000

Why is Cedar such a good choice for cedar furniture and garden accessories? Easy- the elements will not easily compromise the integrity of the material. That means that outdoor furniture made from cedar has natural resistance to rotting, to cracking, and to warping- leaving just the natural beauty of the wood. Cedar is also resistant to fungus, so the only color properties of this outdoor furniture will be the natural weathering of the wood to a silvery gray (if left unfinished). The life of the product could easily reach 8 to 10 years, and that’s if the piece is untreated and left outside year-round. If taken inside for the winter, if covered, or if treated with a wood preservative, the life expectancy of this outdoor furniture could easily exceed that estimate.

Cedar is the natural choice because of its beauty, practicality and durability. We use only the finest cedar to create furniture that lasts for generations. It is naturally resistant to decay, insect and weather damage. Because of this superior resistance, cedar is frequently used for outdoor fencing, and siding on homes. Cedar has an exceptionally high strength-to-weight ratio, which means that it is both durable and easy to move about. It does not shrink or warp as many other woods commonly do. Unlike pressure-treated wood furniture, we use no chemical preservatives that may be harmful to your family’s health.

All cedar log furniture is subject to the natural process of checking as the wood “seasons”. Checking occurs as wood releases moisture across or through the annual growth rings and it does not affect the structural performance or integrity of the wood.
