Known for our high quality Teak and wicker furniture, we have are beginning to being in more high end materials to support your outdoor lifestyle. One exciting new material used in our ‘Starboard’ and ‘Galley’ Director-style chairs is called Batyline.
Batyline mesh is a French made material. It is an extremely durable and high quality material consisting of a polyester fiber covered by a coating of PVC, making it nearly impossible to tear. It is 100% synthetic and resistant to rot and mildew. It is highly resistant to UV radiation and fading, although like all materials left outdoors, slight discoloration is unavoidable over time. The membrane is flame retardant, although the material can melt near a heat source (i.e. from a cigarette burn). It can withstand temperature extremes, ranging from -30 degrees Celsius (-22 Fahrenheit) to 70 degrees Celsius (158 Fahrenheit). Direct contact against heat lamps, lights or other heat sources should be avoided. The flexibility of material is ideal for clients wishing to avoid the need for cushions. Also, its resilient properties make it an ideal material to be near swimming pools or other aggressive environments with chlorine or salt water.
Come by any location to test sit one of these amazing chairs! And keep an eye out this summer for more integration of high-end materials by Teak Warehouse!
