Since 1903, Telescope has been producing high quality patio furniture. Based out of Granville, New York they feature aluminum and wicker collections in their portfolio.
Maintenance on Telescope furniture is straightforward. Use a soapy solution of mild cleaner with warm water and then hose it down before attempting to use pine oil cleansers.
Marine Grade Polymer (MGP)
Marine Grade Polymer (MGP), commonly referred to as MGP is the latest breakthrough in premium quality outdoor furniture. Telescope Casual has begun using this highly resilient synthetic for their frames and tables made out of MGP, the same material used by boat builders for boat hulls and marine applications. As it contains no porosity it will not swell, crack or separate in outdoor environments and is mildew resistant – plus MGP features pigment throughout so small imperfections become less obvious! MGP is made right here in America without compromise in quality of manufacturing standards or environmental impact! Additionally – unlike traditional polyurethane materials – MGP contains pigment all throughout so even minor blemishes are less noticeable!
This non-porous material is ideal for coastal and salt water areas where corrosion can corrode metal furnishings over time, and has also been widely acclaimed for withstanding strong winds that can shift or displace lighter frame materials and cause them to break.
MGP is comprised of FDA-approved resins that provide a comfortable touch surface in any climate, making cleaning simple with just a hose rinse. Not only is MGP exceptionally durable and long-term reliable, it can be easily formed to fit curves or angles that would be difficult to create with metal materials alone.
Even though we recommend storing MGP furniture indoors during the winter season, putting a tarp over it will also protect it from harsh elements such as snow and rain and ensure that it will be ready when spring rolls around! Doing this will protect both your investment and ensure it will be ready when spring arrives!
MGP is an ideal material to achieve a sleek, modern aesthetic. Engineered for longevity and easy shaping capabilities, this durable material makes MGP perfect for Telescope Casual’s St. Catherine and Leeward collections as it adds modern accents. MGP boasts great impact resistance–even stronger than plywood used for children’s toys–making it suitable for furniture that may be jostled around by children and pets alike.
Powder Coated Aluminum
Powder coated aluminum stands up against corrosion naturally, thanks to its protective layer which serves as a barrier between moisture and oxygen, as well as its pleasing colors that enhance furniture designs. Powder coating also adds an easy maintenance layer, complementing many decorative materials.
Consumers typically select their furniture based on aesthetic preferences alone, yet when choosing outdoor space furnishings it’s also essential to take other factors such as comfort level and durability into account. Powder coated aluminum patio furniture offers both strength and style – two factors important in finding furniture worthy of use outdoors.
Powder coat processes are tougher than traditional painting processes and more resistant to weathering, sun exposure, fading, scratching and corrosion than other furniture materials. This results in longer lifespan for furniture pieces while requiring less upkeep maintenance to stay looking beautiful.
Powder coating offers several environmental advantages. As it uses a dry application process without solvents, which dramatically decreases pollution and waste production, powder coating also ensures it won’t flake off later on.
Powder coated aluminum furniture can withstand even harsh environments, making it the ideal choice for high traffic areas. Due to its durability, powder coated aluminum furniture stands up well to repeated uses from customers and abuse caused by them on outdoor furniture sets – thus the reason that powder coated aluminum is commonly found both commercially and residentially.

Mallin offers an assortment of frame colors that pair perfectly with its fade-resistant slings while Woodard specializes in minimalist frames with modern color palettes.
Twitchell Textilene fabrics are highly recommended for sling use, as they’re fade and tear-resistant, reflective of sunlight rays and help minimize UV degradation of both frame and fabric. Leisuretex’s PVC Olefin fabric also looks great while being easily maintained; cleaning it with damp cloth makes cleaning much simpler! You can create matching cushions, drapes and pillows to match the style of your new sling set!
