Cast Iron Table Base – The Many Benefits

Cast iron has been used in outdoor garden furniture for many years and still remains a popular choice. But why would you want to use one for your venue and what exactly are the benefits? We take a closer look …

Hard-wearing and easily maintained

One of the key benefits of a cast iron table base is that it will probably outlive you. Cast iron can last for decades and its hard-wearing nature makes it a great choice for outdoor seating areas for cafes, bars, and restaurants, and even in your garden at home. Not only can they withstand frequent use but they can also be moved around to meet the needs of your business. Better still, because they are so heavy, there’s no chance of a strong gust of wind causing a table to topple over.

Maintenance of a cast iron table base is also very easy. Aside from wiping it down with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or dust, there’s nothing else you need to do to it looking its best.

Cast Iron is eco-friendly

In these days when everyone is looking to do their bit for the planet, cast iron is an obvious choice. Not only will owners find they can hang on to their base for years without having to replace it, but should a time come when there is no longer a use for it, the base can be recycled and melted down to make a new product.

Ideal for heavy table tops

Heavy table tops made from materials such as granite or marble need an equally heavy table base to support them and a cast iron table base is ideal for this purpose and will spread the weight evenly. If you’re not sure what sort of table base you need, then the knowledgeable team at Cafe Solutions will be happy to help.

Can be customised

Since a cast iron table base is likely to last a very long time, it’s good to know that if you get tired of it, you can change its appearance to match your décor or theme. The easiest way to change the appearance of your table is to replace the tabletop or you can paint the base a colour that matches in with your décor.
