Aluminum Chaise Lounge

The aluminum chaise lounge, though built for comfort, has a great number of responsibilities.

It needs to be durable to withstand both fierce sunlight and inclement weather.
It should be light enough to move, but heavy enough not to tumble off the deck with any gust of wind.
It must adjust easily without pinching fingers, toes, and clothing.

In other words, the aluminum chaise lounge works hard to make relaxation so easy.

Perfect for the Pool
An aluminum chaise lounge might be made of extruded or drawn aluminum tubes (drawn aluminum is produced by a different process than that of extruded aluminum, resulting in a stronger and more flexible tube). These lounges are the ones you often see poolside, with vinyl straps, that are easy to stack, have adjustable headrests, and are light enough to be moved or pushed across the patio.

Casting Call
The leading material in outdoor furniture, however, is cast aluminum. A cast aluminum chaise lounge has a more classic, antique appearance, resembling cast iron pieces with intricate designs. It is lighter than one made from the traditional cast iron, but more solid than a lounge made from extruded aluminum tubes. A cast aluminum chaise lounge is also more resistant to rust than cast iron.

Strong and Beautiful
Whereas an aluminum chaise lounge made of extruded aluminum is composed of hollow tubes fitted together, a cast aluminum chaise lounge is cast from a mold. Molten lava is poured into a sand mold; when the aluminum cools and hardens, the sand is knocked away. This method allows the furniture maker to incorporate fine details, resulting in an aluminum chaise lounge of beauty and strength.
