POLYWOOD is one of the most well-known producers of HDPE (high-density polyethylene) furniture. All POLYWOOD furniture is made from genuine POLYWOOD® lumber, a proprietary material made using landfill-bound and ocean-bound plastics. 

Designed to withstand even the harshest elements—from hot sun to heavy blizzards— POLYWOOD outdoor furniture is resistant to stains and corrosive substances and isn’t prone to splinter, crack, chip, peel, or rot. POLYWOOD recycles an average of 400,000 landfill-bound and ocean-bound plastic containers every day. Truckloads of recycled plastic are transformed into genuine POLYWOOD® lumber, which is made into high-quality POLYWOOD outdoor furniture.

What’s more, POLYWOOD’s array of outdoor furnishings—which includes Adirondack chairs, dining, benches, lounging, deep seating, and more—feature color-stay technology and are backed by a 20-year warranty. 

“HDPE furniture is amazingly low-maintenance and virtually indestructible—but better yet, this furniture has a great sustainability story,” says AuthenTEAK CEO Eric Brenner. “Not only does the POLYWOOD brand of furniture put ocean-bound plastics to good use, but because their furniture is so well made, it does not have to be replaced very often.”

AuthenTEAK is proud to offer free shipping on a comprehensive selection of POLYWOOD products, with the best and most up-to-date lead times. Our team has decades of experience with POLYWOOD furniture, and our team of experts is available to answer any product or design questions. We also offer POLYWOOD products on display in our 15,000-square-foot, award-winning Atlanta showroom, so you can experience them in person before making a purchase.
