2022 was once again a rather exceptional year for SIMEXA, the international outdoor furniture experts. Despite a difficult international context, marked by many geo-strategic and economic complications, global inflation due to factors related to energy, transport and raw materials, SIMEXA has been able to strengthened its position and continue its development at the international level.
This month, we would like to share our enthusiasm for a new trend that has been developing in the world of outdoor furniture recently: full fabric furniture. Let’s agree, this is revolutionary! Imagine interior furniture installed outside, thanks to fabric’s specific technical characteristics. The most famous international brands of outdoor furniture have not been mistaken as they have developed specific collections of… full fabric furniture. Now, let’s discover the full fabric revolution!
As you already know, at SIMEXA, we always recommend our customers to invest in quality outdoor furniture as it is durable, resistant, easy to maintain, and never goes out of fashion. However, after some time, you may want to refresh your outdoor spaces, or give your outdoor furniture a trendy facelift. Have you ever considered adding or changing outdoor cushions?
At SIMEXA, we believe great quality outdoor furniture should always be sustainable and definitely weatherproof. In this regard, teak outdoor furniture is a must in terms of durability and aesthetics. However, supplies are limited, and professionals are looking for alternatives to teak outdoor furniture offering both equivalent quality and the same versatile, luxurious look.
Outdoor areas are often designed after interior standards – however, unlike indoor spaces, outdoor furnishings must be durable and weather resistant, coping with sun, rain, humidity, extreme temperatures – not to mention stains and abrasion in a domestic or commercial context!
When it comes to outdoor furniture, we all look for the same specifications: aesthetics, comfort, but also strength and durability – not to mention price… Aluminium meets all these requirements: malleable, easy to handle, weather resistant, etc. However, this material is now facing unprecedented price increases, leading outdoor furniture manufacturers to look for alternatives.
A good outdoor shower is a must when designing a property or outdoor spaces. Thanks to their functionalities and aesthetics, outdoor showers, as other luxury outdoor equipments, contribute to a sense of comfort and quality that brings guests to love their experience and definitely recommend a place.
While you wouldn’t think resorts, hotels, motels, and other similar travel accommodations have much of an effect on the environment, their collective impact could potentially pose a threat due to electricity and water consumption, heavy duty resources, and food waste, to name a few. Luckily, there’s the Eco Lodge Movement. The eco lodge movement is a sustainable initiative that was created in attempts to minimize harmful effects that arise from the hospitality industry. These include CO2 emissions, noise pollution, smoke, food waste, water waste, and not to mention the burden of taking up local land.
