Powder Coated or Plain Aluminium Seats: What’s Best for Your Space?
So, you’re in the market for brand new SeatsPlus seats, but now comes the big question: should you go for the bold, colourful, and ultra durable powder coated finish, or stick with the sleek and classic plain aluminium? It might seem like a small detail, but trust us, it makes a big difference in the look, feel, and longevity of your seating.
Let’s break it down so you can make the best choice for your space and your needs!
Why Choice Powder Coated Seating?
Powder coating isn’t just about looking good, it also comes with a bunch of practical benefits:
- Built to Last – The powder coating creates a tough outer layer that shields the aluminium from corrosion, scratches, and general wear and tear. Your seats will look newer for longer!
- Colour Your World – Want seats that match your team’s colours, your business brand, or just want to brighten up your outdoor space? Powder coated seats come in a variety of colours to suit your style. Click here to see our colour range.
- Easy to Maintain – Powder coated seats resist dirt and stains. A quick wipe and you’re good to go. No need for hard scrubbing! A great option for frequently used areas.
- Sun Proof – UV resistance means your seats won’t fade or degrade under the sun. Perfect for the harsh Australian conditions.
- Eco-Friendly – Powder coating is a sustainable process that skips the nasty solvents, making it a win for both you and the environment.
Why Plain Aluminium is a Great Option
While powder coating has plenty of perks, don’t count out the classic aluminium finish just yet! Here’s why it might be the right choice for you:
- Minimalist Vibes – If you love a clean, industrial, and modern look, plain aluminium delivers that effortlessly.
- Budget Friendly – Skipping the powder coating process means you save money while still getting high quality, durable seating.
- Naturally Tough – Aluminium naturally forms an oxide layer, making it resistant to rust and corrosion, no coating needed!
- Super Durable – This material is strong enough to handle daily use and high traffic, making it perfect for long-term performance.
- Low Maintenance – With its natural corrosion resistance, aluminium requires very little upkeep, saving you both time and money. A little bit of soapy warm water and your seats will be sparkling!
So, Which One is Right for You?
At the end of the day, it comes down to your preferences. If you are after a vibrant, long-lasting, and easy to maintain seating option? Powder coating is calling your name! If you prefer a sleek, budget friendly, and naturally durable choice? Plain aluminium is a solid choice. Take a look through our past work to see how fantastic both seating options can be.
