Unusual images of plastic furniture are presented in the photo below:
Advantages
- Low cost. If the budget of the enterprise is limited, but you can’t do without furniture, a plastic option is exactly what is needed. Plastic furniture is an excellent ratio of price and comfort.
- Practicality and durability. Plastic - a material that is not subject to corrosion or decay processes, does not swell and does not deform under the influence of moisture. Insects and fungi to this material are absolutely indifferent. It is easy to care for it, it is enough to wash the plastic surface or even just wipe it with a damp cloth.
- Convenience of storage and transportation. Since plastic furniture is very light, it is convenient to transfer it from one room to another, and for this there is no need to look for movers. During transportation over long distances, chairs are folded one to one, taking up very little space. Plastic sun loungers are folded, tables are dismantled, which greatly simplifies the process of their storage and carrying. Folding plastic furniture for the garden is also very convenient, which is also useful on a picnic or fishing.
- Diversity. A wide range of color solutions and models of different designs made of plastic are presented today in the furniture market. You can even buy plastic furniture, which will have a surface with imitation of various textures of natural materials, such as marble, wood or metal.
Flaws
- Artificial origin. Often, when heated, such furniture emits toxic substances if plastic of dubious quality. Demand when buying sellers of a quality certificate, where there is a section describing the degree of toxicity of these products. For greater caution, having plastic furniture in the house, place it away from heating objects and ventilate the room as often as possible.
- Susceptibility to mechanical influences. On plastic over time, noticeable scratches appear, from a strong sharp blow it can burst. But, from the formation of scratches can protect the use of various coatings or tablecloths. And, if you do not knock on such furniture intentionally, trying to break it, then it will serve you faithfully for a very long time.
- Exposure to direct sunny exposure and the influence of very low temperatures. Today, in conditions of global warming, summer, sometimes, is not just warm, but exhausting hot. If plastic furniture will be under the influence of direct sunlight for a long time, then there is a possibility of its deformation in the melting process, which is irreversible. The surface of plastic furniture can fade with such incorrect use. There is only one way out - bring furniture into a shadow or under a canopy when it is not used. Plastic furniture, especially imported production, does not withstand our harsh winters. If plastic items were left for the winter on the street, then in the spring they will become fragile, they will break quickly. Therefore, it is better to send cottage furniture to winter in a warehouse.
- Incompatibility with some interior styles. Plastic furniture items are not at all universal interior elements. Plastic furniture-the prerogative of modern dwellings with ultramoded design (high-tech, pop art, etc.). But, do not try to fit plastic objects into a classic or excavated and elite environment. Moreover, many people are quite categorically opposed to cheap plastic furniture, therefore, organizing a picnic, find out the preferences of invited guests.
Most of the cheap plastic furniture is made of PVC (polyvinyl chloride). To increase the strength characteristics, it is reinforced, adding polymer resins. A better (and, therefore, more expensive) analogue is produced from metakrilic and acrylic acids.
On sale today there are plastic furniture of Italian, Turkish and domestic manufacturers. Italian furniture has a metal frame and is quite elegant. Turkish products, of course, are easier, but the quality is also “on top”. Domestic samples are quite primitive, although the best. Therefore, they also have their admirers.
In any case, the use of plastic furniture items is a chance, for little money to organize a comfortable recreation area or workspace.
