What surface treatments or coatings are applied to the Landscape Square table for protection?

The Landscape Square table is engineered for enduring performance in outdoor settings, utilizing a multi-stage protective system. The primary defense is a high-quality thermosetting powder coating. This finish is electrostatically applied and heat-cured, creating a thick, uniform layer that is highly resistant to chipping, scratching, and fading. Unlike traditional liquid paint, it forms a durable skin that bonds seamlessly to the underlying aluminum or steel frame.

For enhanced defense against solar degradation, a UV-resistant topcoat is often integrated. This formulation absorbs and reflects harmful ultraviolet rays, preventing the color from bleaching and the material from weakening over years of sun exposure. This is crucial for maintaining the table's aesthetic appeal.

Furthermore, the treatment process includes thorough surface preparation such as phosphating or chromating. This pre-treatment cleans and etches the metal, creating an optimal surface for coating adhesion and adding a secondary layer of corrosion resistance. The combined result is a robust barrier against moisture, salt spray, and temperature fluctuations.

These coatings are selected not only for protection but also for environmental safety, being low in VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds). The final product is a low-maintenance surface that requires only occasional cleaning with mild soap and water to preserve its integrity and appearance through seasons, ensuring the Landscape Square table remains a centerpiece of outdoor living.
