When you choose an outdoor bench, you rightfully expect a safe and comfortable seating experience, free from the worry of splinters. We take this expectation seriously. The surfaces of our outdoor benches undergo a meticulous treatment process specifically designed to prevent splinters and ensure long-term durability.
We start by selecting high-quality, durable wood or composite materials known for their stability. Each bench is then carefully sanded multiple times with progressively finer grits to achieve an exceptionally smooth surface. This initial step eliminates any rough spots or raised wood grain that could potentially lead to splinters.
The most crucial part of our process is the application of a professional-grade, weather-resistant finish. This is not a simple coat of paint. We use specialized sealants, oils, or UV-resistant polyurethane coatings that deeply penetrate the wood fibers. This treatment does three key things: it locks the wood fibers in place, preventing them from lifting and forming splinters; it creates a hard, protective shell on the surface; and it shields the bench from moisture, sun, and temperature changes—the primary causes of wood deterioration and splintering.
This robust finish ensures that your bench remains smooth and safe for years, even when exposed to the elements. While all finishes require occasional maintenance to uphold their protective qualities, our initial treatment provides a superior, long-lasting foundation. You can relax completely, knowing that our benches are crafted for your comfort and peace of mind.
