Salma Sail Alu Stacking Chair Taupe

For load-bearing structures, it is often necessary to reinforce the aluminium bar. Also known as hardened aluminium, this process involves inserting a steel rod or solid timber into the hollow aluminium bar to strengthen the component. This not only allows the piece to carry more weight, but it also limits the welded component from flexing, which undermines its durability.

Wintons Teak uses outdoor sling by Batyline®, which is a far more durable sling material, as the individual strands are composed of twisted filaments coated with PVC. Once woven, heat is applied to the material that welds the strands together. This ensures the durability of the materials and prevents tears in the material when weight is applied.
