American-made outdoor furniture manufacturers are finding new ways to compete, and making their products here in the U.S. is becoming a big advantage.
Furniture Today recently highlighted POLYWOOD and Telescope Casual, two outdoor furniture manufacturers that continue to produce their products right here in the United States. According to the article, keeping manufacturing domestic allows these companies to offer shorter lead times, more special-order options and the ability to develop new products faster.
This is something we see firsthand at Coastal Patio Furniture.
With Telescope Casual, customers have a ton of options when it comes to frames, fabrics and finishes. Because their furniture is manufactured here in the U.S., they can offer those choices without dealers having to stock every possible combination.
POLYWOOD is doing something similar. They continue to expand their product line and use their U.S. manufacturing capabilities to develop new products and features for outdoor spaces.
Of course, manufacturing in the U.S. isn’t always the cheapest option. Material costs have gone up, finding skilled workers can be difficult and running a manufacturing facility here comes with higher expenses.
But price isn’t the only thing that matters when you’re buying outdoor furniture.
Lead times, customization, quality, replacement parts, product support and how long you’re actually going to own the furniture all matter too.
That’s one of the reasons we’re proud to offer both POLYWOOD and Telescope Casual at Coastal Patio Furniture. They’re established American manufacturers making outdoor furniture that’s designed to be used and enjoyed for years, not just a season or two.
As a small business, we also appreciate seeing companies continue to invest in manufacturing here in the United States. It’s something we’re happy to support and something we think is worth considering when you’re deciding what furniture is right for your outdoor space.
