Ethically Sourced Materials for Your Garden Furniture
Responsibly sourced materials is at the heart of everything we do at LifestyleGarden®. We’re determined to have a positive impact on the planet by reducing waste, reducing the consumption of resources and energy, and ensuring our colleagues are well-educated about these issues.
Through our in-house production facilities, network of passionate team members located across the globe, and partnerships with leading environmental bodies, we are able to create high-quality recycled outdoor furniture that is ethically sourced. We are driven to ‘close the loop’ by minimising waste and maximising the recyclable credentials of our products, for the benefit of the environment and people.
But what does this mean for our customers? Put simply, it means that we are able to deliver outstanding, beautiful pieces of recycled furniture, combining international design and production with ethically sourced materials. This ensures responsible outdoor living is possible for any taste, style and budget. We strongly believe that innovative recycled furniture should be available to the many, not the few.
LifestyleGarden® produces repurposed furniture that looks great, is weather-resistant, requires very little maintenance and is made to last. All our products have been designed to be used outdoors throughout the year in all types of weather conditions. During the off-season, it is recommended the product is stored inside or covered.
DURAOCEAN®, MADE FROM RECYCLED MARITIME AND FISHING ROPES
Our planet is facing a plastic pollution crisis. Each year we produce 300 million tonnes of plastic waste – that’s nearly the same weight as the entire world population. Predictions show that unless something is done to reduce this, we will have created four times as much plastic waste by 2050.
It’s a well-known fact that much of this plastic waste ends up in our oceans, about eight million tonnes in fact – that’s enough to circle the earth 425 times. Each year this ‘ocean plastic’ is killing in excess of 100,000 marine creatures, and by 2050 there could be more plastic than fish calling the ocean home. However, there is help at hand. Initiatives such as ocean circular recovery projects are helping to raise awareness and encourage consumers to take responsibility for local ocean clean-up operations. But what happens to the ocean plastic that is recovered?
Tackling a worldwide issue, LifestyleGarden® is the proud producer of DuraOcean®, an innovative development that is breaking new ground by utilising recycled maritime plastic, to create the world’s first commercially available chair made with marine plastic waste, setting the benchmark for sustainable material usage and design.
At LifestyleGarden®, we understand that ethically responsible initiatives are the only way to deliver innovative product development. DuraOcean® garden chairs and tables are a shining example of our commitment to responsible practices, manufactured from 100% recycled plastics recovered and safely processed; preventing the plastic from entering and polluting the Oceans.
Not only are the raw materials taken from recycled marine plastic, but the entire chairs and tables can be disassembled and recycled once again at the end of their lifecycles. The majority of the plastic is sourced from industrial ropes, which also provide the standard green DuraOcean® colour. We are continuously working to deliver more colours, all without compromising to the recycled material and further recyclability of the chair.
Our partner sources the plastic material from harbours, marine environments and the marine industry, before transforming the plastic waste into a valuable recycled raw material, which is delivered to us in pellet form. This is done after a series of washing and cleaning of the material, after sorting based on the type of plastic to ensure the highest quality and properties. These pellets are mixed into a resin with other additives – all of which are REACH compliant and recyclable – and injected into our custom-built moulds. The result is a UV-resistant and ergonomically designed product that is supported by our hard-wearing FSC®-certified Brazilian Eucalyptus wood. This combination of nature and plastic is the DuraOcean® chairs and tables that results in stunning wooden furniture and Eucalyptus furniture.
DuraOcean® doesn’t contain any harmful chemicals and it is completely safe for the environment. All the DuraOcean® products have been manufactured according to rigorous standards and in accordance with the EU laws that banned harmful chemicals (REACH). We have made DuraOcean® products from 100% recycled plastic and stabilizers free to reduce our environmental footprint.

HIGH-QUALITY ALUMINIUM AND CAST ALUMINIUM
LifestyleGarden® uses aluminium that is commonly used for boatbuilding and water-sensitive shore applications – the best choice for products used outdoors. Aluminium offers stability and robustness while also being lightweight and easy to move yet also extremely robust and reliable offering convenience and peace of mind.
LifestyleGarden® uses innovative cast aluminium die-casting technology, which allows for ergonomic design and the creation of unique shapes. LifestyleGarden® cast aluminium furniture is a perfect fusion of form and function with pieces that bring elegance, style and practicality to your outdoor living space.
LifestyleGarden® aluminium components and products are coated with Duracoat®, polymer-based, multi-layer powder coating for effective protection from the weather. We believe Duracoat® is an ideal covering for our aluminium as it is highly protective, low maintenance and retains its colour year after year. The high-quality, multi-layer Duracoat® finish gives a sleek, smooth appearance that also provides unparalleled protection from the elements and everyday wear and tear.
LifestyleGarden® is committed to protecting the environment and natural resources. We continually and consistently improve our operational efficiency and sustainability in order to benefit the environment.

FSC™ CERTIFIED EUCALYPTUS
For hardwood products LifestyleGarden® uses FSC® certified eucalyptus, a natural, living material that adds character to any piece of eucalyptus furniture, in addition to being durable and long-lasting.
Minor cracks and colour variations that occur over time are natural features of hardwood and only serve to enhance the character and authentic appearance of the furniture.
All hardwood products have been specially in-house treated with a unique water-based finish, Duragrain®, that provides protection while also allowing the natural grain of the wood to be appreciated through the unique coloured finish. We suggest a bi-annual treatment of LifestyleGarden’s Wood Sealer and Wood Protector to maintain a pristine look.
LifestyleGarden®’s hardwood complies with EU Timber regulations, the Australian Illegal Logging Prohibition Act 2011 and the Lacey Act in the USA.

UNIQUE FSC™ DURABOARD® TABLE TOPS
DuraBoard® by LifestyleGarden® is a responsibly sourced material that is durable, highly UV-resistant and has a unique surface finish. It features two main components: the first is a unique blend of high-quality FSC™ eucalyptus sawdust and polyethylene resin, extruded to create a strong, durable structure. Following this, the table top is treated with UV and receives a multi-layer coating which makes it highly resistant to all weather conditions.
The production of DuraBoard® occurs entirely in-house, enabling each stage of the process to be closely monitored for quality control purposes. Due to the combination of the two components and the highly durable surface finish created, LifestyleGarden® DuraBoard® is the future of table top surfaces.

FSC™ CERTIFIED TEAK
Teak is the natural choice for premium outdoor furniture. This material is one of the most sought after wood species in the world, renowned for its strength, durability and beautiful appearance.
LifestyleGarden® only uses teak that is FSC™ certified – timber is grown in responsibly managed plantations or has been sourced and recycled from components and structures on the island of Java. The wood originates from barns, houses, railway sleepers and other constructions. The wood is bought from the original sources before it is brushed, cleaned and repaired to give it a beautiful, rustic appearance.
Teak furniture ages beautifully with the original golden-brown colour gradually becoming replaced by a silver-grey patina if left untreated, which gives a classic, rustic appearance. This generally begins to happen after four-five months without treatment. If left untreated for two years, the silver-grey patina will change to a dark grey or green colour.
LifestyleGarden® hardwood complies with EU Timber regulations, the Australian Illegal Logging Prohibition Act 2011 and the Lacey Act in the USA.
• Maintenance-free.
• 100% recycled and recyclable.
• UV-resistant.
Generally, this begins to occur after 4-5 months without treatment but if the teak is left untreated for 2 years, the silver-grey patina will become a much darker grey to green colour.

These products help to protect the furniture in all weather conditions as well as maintaining the natural golden-brown colour.
