Barlow Tyrie manufactures furniture of the highest quality, achieved by combining the best materials with our many years of experience. Their range of furniture includes many pieces that have won design awards and are frequently copied classics. They make their teak furniture from the top grade of plantation grown teak (tectona grandis) sourced from Indonesia. They also combine the teak with fittings made from marine-quality solid brass or stainless steel. They make their stainless steel furniture from two grades of stainless steel; 316 grade, known as 'marine grade' due to its common usage in coastal environments, and 304 grade, which is more commonly used inland. Both grades make for excellent quality garden furniture. The powder coated aluminum furniture they manufacture is created from 'Virgin Aluminum', so-called because it has not previously been recycled. This makes the furniture even stronger and longer lasting.For woven furniture, they use the finest synthetic material, which is woven by hand over powder coated aluminum frames. This combination creates a piece of furniture that is strong, color-fast and resistant to sun and rain. For chairs that require a fabric sling, such as the Horizon Stacking Armchair, the sling is made from Textilene ® which is woven from a PVC coated polyester, non-stretch yarn resulting in a product that is very strong, color-fast and resistant to sun and rain. Similarly, their cushions are made from Sunbrella fabric.Please Note: Fabrics, canopies, cushions, covers, special order sling colors, and special order finishes are considered customized and may have longer lead times. These items cannot be cancelled, returned, or exchanged.
