POLYWOOD makes durable, weather-resistant outdoor furniture from genuine POLYWOOD lumber, a proprietary material made from recycled plastics that would otherwise end up in landfills and oceans. It’s sustainable, practically maintenance-free, and built to last for generations, so it’s an easy choice for anyone who wants to spend less time on upkeep and more time enjoying the outdoors.
POLYWOOD’s story began in 1990 in a garage in Syracuse, Indiana. Founders Doug Rassi and Mark Phillabaum were high school friends. At the time, recycling programs were collecting more plastic than anyone knew what to do with. The two friends discovered that high-density polyethylene, the sturdy plastic used in milk jugs and detergent bottles, could be turned into lumber strong enough to build outdoor furniture. What started with a single Adirondack chair has grown into a leader in recycled outdoor furniture. Today, POLYWOOD still makes its furniture in the USA, at facilities in Syracuse, Indiana, and Roxboro, North Carolina.
Sustainability is at the heart of everything POLYWOOD makes. The company recycles high-density polyethylene, or HDPE, from everyday household items like milk jugs, detergent containers, shampoo bottles, and spray bottles. In its own recycling facility, POLYWOOD cleans, shreds, and melts this plastic, then turns it into its signature lumber. On average, the company recycles about 400,000 milk jugs a day. Because HDPE can be recycled again and again, POLYWOOD furniture helps keep plastic out of landfills and waterways while giving it a long, useful second life.
POLYWOOD lumber is built to outperform traditional wood outdoors. It stands up to rain, snow, salt water, sun, and ice, and it won’t rot, splinter, crack, or peel. There’s no need to paint, stain, or waterproof it. A simple wash with soap and water keeps it looking its best. Every piece is tested to handle years of sun and weather, and POLYWOOD backs its furniture with a 20-year warranty. That durability makes POLYWOOD a smart choice for coastal homes, poolside lounging, mountain retreats, and busy commercial spaces alike.

Alternatives to POLYWOOD include other recycled plastic furniture, such as Seaside Casual, and teak or aluminum lines from other makers. Seaside Casual also builds with recycled HDPE and marine-grade stainless steel hardware, and it manufactures in the United States.
POLYWOOD furniture doesn't require a cover and can stay outside year-round, according to the company. Covers make seasonal cleaning easier and can extend lifespan. A cover is most useful where pollen, leaves, or snow would otherwise add to your spring cleaning, so the decision comes down to convenience.
The right POLYWOOD furniture depends on how you'll use it, with Adirondack chairs, dining sets, and deep seating as the main categories. Collections such as Vineyard, Coastal, and EDGE use HDPE lumber with marine-grade hardware, while only the Laguna Collection is designed for in-pool use.
POLYWOOD makes outdoor dining furniture, including dining sets, chairs, tables, and bar and counter pieces. They make seat cushions with ties for dining chairs and benches with backs, and the furniture can stay outside year-round. Because POLYWOOD lumber needs no staining or waterproofing, a dining set requires less seasonal upkeep than painted or stained wood.
