Many Advantages of Polywood
Poly-Wood is a term quickly sweeping the country, not because it is new on the scene. Perhaps because the United States is starting to catch on to what two very innovative men found out a long time ago in a garage in Indiana? Poly-Wood HDPE plastic lumber is the ideal recycled material for constructing outdoor patio furniture built to withstand the elements.
Poly-Wood is a high quality, durable lumber substitute made from high density recycled plastic polymer. The unique qualities and nature of polywood make it flexible, comfortable and ideal for manufacturing outdoor patio furniture. The polywood plastic lumber is extruded from pellets of recycled milk jugs into plastic lumber that can be cut, routered, screwed and assembled into sustainable outdoor patio furniture that will last for years and years.
One of the many favorable features of polywood is the virtually maintenance free care that is needed to keep your outdoor furniture looking new - year after year. Polywood is compounded with permanent, UV stabilized colors through and through the polywood lumber. This eliminates the need for sanding, painting, waterproofing, stripping or refinishing on your polywood patio furniture.
Cleaning polywood is as easy as soap and water. Got a tough stain? Polywood can be cleaned with 1 part bleach to 2 part water for any stubborn stains with a cloth or soft bristle brush. You do not have to sand, paint or refinish each spring season to prepare your outdoor patio for entertaining. Another popular method of cleaning polywood is a high-pressure power washer.
Polywood is nearly double the density of traditional wood and will withstand the windiest conditions. With an exceptional moisture resistance you will not have to worry about rotting, warping, cracking, splintering or support of bacterial growth. You will also find that polywood is impervious to many common corrosive substances including salt water and chlorine allowing you to leave your poly-wood furniture out all year-round.
Polywood is backed by a manufacturer's warranty that guarantees to the original purchaser for a period of five years for residential use from the date of purchase against any defects in the manufacturing or workmanship of the polywood furniture components. That is how confident they are on the products characteristics. The polywood lumber is attached with commercial grade stainless steel hardware that has an additional 'xylan' protective and cosmetic coating. The quality of the hardware has a high level of corrosive resistance, the hardware can show some sign of corrosion in salty air environments.
So, to wrap it all up polywood is a recycled substance that saved milk jugs and containers from our overflowing landfills which is formed and then cut and assembled into outdoor patio furniture. Polywood offers maintenance free care regardless of whether you live in the mountains, on the beach, surrounded by the plains, in rainy or sunny weather. Leave this unique, sustainable polywood lumber furniture out in all weather as it has proven to be impervious to the effects of mother-nature for over 18 years. PolyWood is used to construct PolyWood premium outdoor furniture that will bring you a casual existence with its simplicity, durability and quality.
