With the welcoming warm weather comes the desire to be outdoors and enjoy all that the comfortable weather conditions that are offered us. In the past, that also meant additional work in terms of preparing the patio furniture for its annual use. With the advent of modern eco friendly patio furniture it has become much easier to prepare outdoor living areas for their seasonal use.

The new generation of synthetic woods includes Highwood, which is produced in an environmentally mindful plant. This synthetic lumber is repeatedly recyclable and contributes to the preservation of the forests all over the world. It is a non toxic material and will also not seep any harmful chemicals into the ground.

It will always look as good as new no matter how many years and what weather conditions it is subjected to. Harder than cedar or redwood, Highwood can be used in semi-structural projects. It is free from producing splinters, rot, warping, harmful insect attacks, damage from moisture or from fungal growth. Cleaning the furniture is as simple as using a mild soap and water. The furniture comes in several fade resistant attractive colors which include wood tones with or without a streaking effect. Highwood was first produced in 1983 in Europe and improvements over time have put the material to broad use as can be seen in the addition of benches, boardwalks, spa cabinets and fencing just to name a few. Twenty years later the Highwood material began to be used in the US for both residences and commercial locales.


Patio furniture too has come a long way in terms of styles and materials. Highwood synthetic lumber has the look and feel of wood. The Adirondack collection for instance, is available both in the white or toffee color. The traditional Adirondack chair, is also available in child size. You can accessorize with side tables, ottomans and the new laptop reading table. The furniture is fold-able for easy storage.

Eco friendly patio furniture is easy to care for. Simply use water and a mild soap to give it a good wash to remove any surface grime. When storing, it is a good idea to cover the furniture to always have clean, ready to use furniture when they are pulled out for the next season of use. Synthetic lumber makes a very intelligent investment. It may be a higher up front cost but the buyer can rest assured that it will last far longer than many species of real Wood, possibly generations.
