GlosterGrand Sail Aluminum Center Unit

Designed as the core building block of the collection, the Grand Sail Center Unit allows seating configurations to expand with precision and ease. Its powder-coated aluminium frame mirrors the structural lines of the Love Seat, while the sail-inspired fabric back panel is tensioned around an internal aluminium structure for added support and long-term performance.

Generously proportioned cushions provide consistent seat height and comfort across modular layouts, ensuring visual and physical continuity. Whether used to extend a linear sofa or connect corner elements, the Center Unit offers technical reliability and design flexibility, making it essential to the Grand Sail modular system.

Bottom Frame Material Properties
Aluminum is a light and tough metal with an excellent strength to weight ratio and corrosion resistance - making it an ideal material for outdoor furniture.

The corrosion resistance of Gloster's aluminum furniture is enhanced by pre-treating the aluminum extrusions with a chrome conversion coating that deposits a thin layer of chrome on the surface. The treated frame is subsequently coated with an electro-statically applied, powder coat finish. The electro-static application method ensures 100% coverage of the metal's surface area and provides a consistent and tough finish that far exceeds other conventional paint finishes. The resulting finish is knock and scratch resistant, impervious to moisture, highly resistant to corrosion and easy to clean.
