Expanded metal picnic tables are designed for outdoors areas that need seating for large numbers of people. Various models include round tables, rectangular tables, and octagonal tables. Some models also feature specialized mounts, although all models can be adapted to in-ground, surface, or portable mounts if necessary.
The term expanded refers to the way the steel the table is constructed from is manufactured. The Expanded style is 9 Gauge steel that forms a crisscross pattern for strength and support. This type of design gives the table a lighter weight than garden furniture made using other metal construction patterns. This is because the larger spaces in the pattern amount to less surface area and therefore less weight than metal furniture made from perforated patterns and diamond pattern.
Expanded metal picnic tables are lighter in weight than tables made with diamond metal or perforated metal patterns. The criss cross pattern of metal reinforcement also makes them more durable than rod, wire, and welded style outdoor furnishings.
All in all, they represent the best of the lightweight world combined with the heavy duty world. The first thing maintenance crews notice when these tables are installed is that the expanded design is the easiest to clean.
Expanded metal picnic tables are also the most budget friendly of all outdoor furniture options, which makes them ideal for all sorts of organizations that have outdoor areas for gatherings and picnics. Senior Citizen homes especially like these tables because they not only provide residents with a place to eat outside, but also with a place to rest under an accessory shade umbrella.
Libraries also like to use them for staff lunch facilities and atrium areas open to families visiting on the weekend. In fact, the cost competiveness of these tables makes them ideal for any municipal grounds looking for outdoor seating.
Expanded metal picnic tables have also become quite popular with public schools, colleges, and universities. Not only are they used for lunchtime, but they are also used for outdoor study areas. Schools that lack an abundance of trees especially appreciate these tables because they can add an optional umbrella that will protect the students from the sun.
Homeowners associations have found that sponsorship of community events is an excellent way to keep residents motivated to keep up their yards. Residents are more likely to attend events if there are plenty of comfortable seats. HOA’s often buy several portable models in addition to in-ground mounted units. This allows them to accommodate large turnouts and to rearrange seating for different events.
Banks and retail center tenants also used expanded metal picnic tables for employee break areas. They provide more seating than benches, and they also provide more shelter from the elements if fitted with accessory, optional umbrellas.
Seats, supports, tabletops, and optional accessories are made with galvanized steel that is coated in a copolymer-based thermoplastic powder coating.
Thermoplastic is an environmentally friendly coating that does not fade, discolor, crack, peel, or warp It protects against corrosion, and it has been found to have the best adhesion rate of any other protective process.
