Tips for Choosing Outdoor Furniture

Giving your employees the ability to sit outside helps boost employee morale.

If you have yet to invest in any outdoor furniture, then you may want to consider it. Giving your employees the ability to sit outside helps boost employee morale. Spending too much time in the office can lead to burnout. Although it’s September, the weather is still warm and takes a while to cool down. If you need some guidance, we’re here to help! We offer aluminum frame outdoor furniture, commercial-grade benches, commercial-grade outdoor cabinets and chests, and commercial-grade picnic tables. Here are some tips on how to choose outdoor furniture.

Outdoor Tables

Outdoor tables are ideal for employees who enjoy eating their lunch outside or for meetings when the weather is beautiful. Wooden picnic tables are a popular option. We offer ergonomic and eco-friendly options. We partner with Eagle One who offers commercial-grade picnic tables made from recycled milk jugs. They also have a 25-year warranty, so the durability is evident.

Outdoor Seating

Long workdays can be taxing. You and your employees deserve to take a load off. Benches are also ideal for just that. This type of outdoor seating works for an educational facility as well as outdoor tables. Outdoor furniture benefits any industry. Eagle One’s Greenwood plastic lumber is resistant to dents, scratches, UV rays, and graffiti as well. 

Aluminum Frame Outdoor Furniture

If any of your employees are interested in working outdoors altogether, we can provide aluminum frame furniture. Eagle One’s stackable chair and aluminum frame table are stain-resistant, durable, and not prone to molding, rotting, or decaying. The best office spaces are accommodating. For those employees that like to be one with nature, you should give them the option to spend time working outside.

Outdoor Cabinets and Chests

If you consistently have team building exercises outside or meeting in general, then you may want to use a cabinet or chest to store specific items. Also, if your employees enjoy eating their lunches outside, then it may be beneficial to them to have silverware, napkins, or condiments within reach. 

Other Considerations

  • Invest in an umbrella
  • Include bike racks
  • Signage can help designate your outdoor area and can guide customers or visitors on where to go
