Thank you for your interest in our outdoor benches and their material origins. We're proud to share that yes, we primarily source our materials locally whenever possible. This commitment serves multiple important purposes that benefit both our customers and the environment.
By working with local suppliers and manufacturers, we significantly reduce our carbon footprint associated with transportation while supporting regional economies and businesses. Our locally sourced materials typically include sustainably harvested hardwoods like oak and maple, along with recycled metals for structural components. This approach ensures we obtain high-quality materials that are well-suited to withstand local weather conditions, as they've naturally adapted to the regional climate.
Our dedication to local sourcing extends beyond environmental benefits – it allows for closer collaboration with material providers, ensuring consistent quality control throughout production. This results in outdoor benches that offer exceptional durability and longevity. While we prioritize local materials, we maintain strict quality standards and will occasionally source specialty components from further afield when necessary to meet our durability and design requirements.
This balanced approach to material sourcing enables us to create beautiful, functional outdoor benches that withstand the test of time while minimizing environmental impact. We believe this commitment to local economies and sustainable practices creates better products for our customers and a healthier planet for future generations.
