Looking for a new picnic table?

First of all, it’s important to know what to consider when buying a picnic table. For most people, the following questions apply:

  • Will I be placing the table indoors or outdoors?
  • Which material do I prefer?
  • How many people should be able to sit at it?
  • Are the seat and tabletop heights suitable?

Indoors or outdoors, and which material do you prefer?

In our wide range, you’ll find a little bit of everything. So, if you’re looking for a picnic table, you have a variety of options to choose from.

For example, our Bermuda picnic table, two meters long, made of aluminum with synthetic material. The synthetic material we use for our Bermuda picnic tables is truly next-level. By producing it using our own mold, we are able to create a synthetic plank that is indistinguishable from real teak wood. Unlike other synthetic planks, ours even features authentic wood grain. The material is resistant to mold, insects, and does not splinter. The color of the synthetic material closely resembles teak wood.

Since synthetic material is porous, stains and grease can penetrate it. You can prevent this by regularly treating your furniture with a synthetic protector and using coasters. Additionally, UV light from the sun can cause discoloration. A synthetic protector provides protection, and we recommend using it. We also advise covering your furniture with a protective cover when not in use.

If you prefer an extra sturdy picnic table, a metal table, like our Max picnic table, will better meet your needs. A metal picnic table is harder, stronger, and heavier than other materials such as wood or aluminum. Moreover, the Max table is coated, making it less sensitive to weather conditions. This makes the steel picnic table particularly suitable for hospitality or recreational use. All you need to do is clean it with soapy water.

The rounded shapes of the Max picnic table not only give it a modern appearance but also make it very user-friendly. You won’t bump into a sharp corner of the seat or tabletop, making it perfect for families with children! The table also features an open entry, allowing everyone to sit down easily.

Reading the product description carefully is especially important when it comes to outdoor furniture. That way, you’ll never face unexpected surprises. Keep in mind, however, that outdoor furniture is always subject to weather conditions.

How many people, and what height?

The more, the merrier! That’s why it’s useful to know approximately how many people can sit at your picnic table. Allow about 50 cm per person per seat. So, a two-meter picnic table can accommodate around eight people.

Of course, you want to sit comfortably at your picnic table. Keep a seat height of about 45 cm in mind. The tabletop height is ideal between 75 and 78 cm.
