5 Reasons To Embrace Aluminium As Your Cafe Furniture Of Choice

From plastic and rattan to wood, wrought-iron, and aluminium, there are so many different cafe furniture options open to you. With this in mind, how do you know which is the right type for you? After all they all have their own advantages as well as drawbacks.

While it’s impossible to talk about the right style for a specific cafe, bistro, or restaurant, it may be beneficial to talk about a certain type of cafe furniture that has many advantages to suit a wide variety of establishments. That type of furniture is aluminium. Without further ado, let’s delve deeper and have a look at the major advantages it offers cafe owners.

It’s incredibly lightweight

When you compare aluminium furniture to wrought-iron, rattan, and even wood, it’s an incredibly light material. It lends itself to almost effortless moving, re-arranging, and stacking, that won’t leave you feeling exhausted. It’s around a quarter of the weight of a cast iron or steel equivalent, so if you buy in bulk, you might even save money on shipping costs too.

It’s weather proof

One of the reasons that aluminium furniture is used both outside and inside is that it’s weather proof. It won’t rust in damp conditions, it won’t crack, fade, or warp, in dry conditions and what’s more, it’s water-proof. It really is the ideal furniture to suit the Australian climate.

It’s low maintenance

It’s true, aluminium furniture represents minimum maintenance. It doesn’t need painting, varnishing, or priming. In fact to keep it looking as good as new, all it needs is a quick wipe down with a mild soapy solution and a non-abrasive cloth in order to remove any sticky spills.

It gives you diverse design options

Aluminium furniture comes in a number of design options from cast aluminium and wrought aluminium through to the ever popular tubular aluminium. This means that you stand a greater chance of getting the right furniture styling to suit your needs. Whether you are looking for a contemporary tubular feel or a more rustic cast aluminium look, there are a wide range of styling options available. They can also be accompanied by rattan or wood seats, or backing to give you a different look once again. There are so many options open to you that the only limiting factor could be your imagination.

It’s durable

If you’re looking for a type of furniture that can withstand the stresses and strains of a bustling cafe where customers come and go and are in and out of their seats regularly, it has to be aluminium. It gives you more ‘bang for your buck’ because first off, aluminium furniture is relatively cheap to buy, but moreover, it’s long lasting so you shouldn’t have to be replacing it one or two years down the line.

So there you have it, 5 strong reasons why you really should be embracing aluminium cafe furniture. So do yourself a favour and opt for the flexible, durable, low maintenance choice today.
