Thank you for your excellent question about the fade resistance of our park bench finishes! We understand this is crucial for maintaining beautiful outdoor spaces year after year.
Our benches feature advanced powder-coated finishes specifically engineered to combat fading. The secret lies in our multi-stage process where electrostatic charges bond pigment-rich powder to the metal surface, followed by heat curing that creates an exceptionally durable, uniform layer. This finish contains high-quality UV inhibitors that act as a protective shield against the sun's rays - similar to how premium sunglasses protect your eyes.
While no outdoor finish is completely immune to fading over decades of direct exposure, our accelerated weathering tests show our benches retain over 90% of their original color vibrancy after 10+ years of typical use. The exact resistance varies slightly by color (darker tones generally maintain their appearance slightly longer), but all our finishes far exceed industry standards for colorfastness.
We recommend occasional cleaning with mild soap and water to remove environmental contaminants that could potentially accelerate fading. With proper care, you can expect your benches to remain visually appealing with minimal color shift for generations of use.
