If you're managing a coastal area, you've asked a critical question: "Are your outdoor benches resistant to saltwater corrosion?" The answer is an emphatic yes – our benches are specifically engineered to thrive in harsh coastal environments where saltwater spray and humid, salty air quickly degrade ordinary outdoor furniture.
Our coastal benches feature marine-grade aluminum frames with powder-coated finishes that create an impenetrable barrier against saltwater corrosion. Unlike standard coatings, our specialized finishing process ensures complete coverage even in hard-to-reach areas, preventing the microscopic gaps where corrosion typically begins.
We incorporate 304 stainless steel hardware throughout our bench construction, which contains higher chromium content that forms a protective layer against saltwater attack. For moving parts and connection points, we use marine-grade zinc-plated components that resist pitting and deterioration even after years of saltwater exposure.
The seating slats are crafted from either thermally modified hardwood that naturally resists moisture absorption and salt damage, or from recycled plastic lumber that's completely impervious to saltwater effects. Both options maintain their structural integrity and appearance without the constant maintenance requirements of traditional wood in coastal settings.
Our rigorous testing process includes salt spray testing that simulates years of coastal exposure in accelerated conditions. This ensures our benches will provide reliable, corrosion-resistant performance season after season, making them ideal for boardwalks, beachfront parks, marina seating, and any location where saltwater is a constant presence.
Beyond corrosion resistance, our coastal benches are designed with comfort and aesthetics in mind. The gently curved seating profile and backrest support (on selected models) provide comfortable seating while watching ocean sunsets, and our finish colors are selected to complement rather than compete with natural coastal surroundings.
We understand that coastal installations face unique challenges beyond just saltwater – including intense UV exposure, blowing sand, and higher humidity levels. Our benches are engineered to withstand this combination of factors, ensuring your investment continues to enhance your coastal space for decades with minimal maintenance required.
