Material Selection Considerations:

• Frame:

Wood: Hardwoods like Beech, Teak, Eucalyptus, or Acacia for durability and aesthetic appeal. Often stained or varnished.

Aluminum: Lightweight, rust-resistant, good for outdoor use, often powder-coated.

Steel: For heavy-duty applications, often powder-coated.

• Seat & Backrest Fabric: Heavy-duty canvas (cotton duck), polyester, or solution-dyed acrylic for durability, weather resistance, and color retention.
• Hardware: Stainless steel or galvanized steel screws, bolts, and hinges for corrosion resistance and strength.
• Feet: Plastic caps or rubber stoppers to protect floors and prevent slipping
