New for 2012: Textilene® range now available to buy online!
We are delighted to now offer a range Textilene® Deckchairs and Tennis Chairs to buy online. Textilene®, if you have not heard of it before, is made of PVC coated woven polyester non-stretch yarn. It is flame retardant, heat sealable, mildew resistant and stable under either hot or cold temperatures. Or, in other words - it will pretty much stand up to anything you can throw at it.
So, as you can imagine these chairs are perfect for the beach hut, the boat, the sun soaked verandah. It also looks pretty darn stylish too! Click on the chairs above or alternatively go to the Deckchair or Tennis Chair shop and scroll to the bottom of the page to see the full Textilene® range.

Tack för din fina blogg!
Strange title for some news you may think - but it's actually Swedish "Thankyou for your lovely Blog"! We recently sent a pair of our super spacious Wideboy deckchairs to a customer in Sweden - and she loves them so much she's written a little blog entry about them! We've included a little screengrab below, but you can read the whole thing by clicking here. Even if you aren't fluent in Swedish she has taken some great pictures of the chairs. Thanks again!

"Naughty-Cool" Deckchair Range Launched
We are pleased to introduce a new range of nautical-themed deckchairs inspired by life at sea. These four bold and striking designs mark the first collaborative output between the pattern makers of Caxton Rhode and craftsmen of Southsea Deckchairs.
Caxton Rhode create traditionally hand crafted patterns and designs using the contemporary tools of today. Creative Director, Rob Bartlett, who is usually found surrounded by more floral arrangements, could not resist the opportunity to partner with Southsea Deckchairs for this playfully original range. Rob comments:
"I approached Stephen & Roma in March of the this year with the idea of creating a fun and and slightly cheeky collection of chairs. Luckily, they loved all of my designs, just as much as I loved the quality and build of their products. It really is an extremely exciting prospect to be working with a Great British maker on such an iconic product."
Each deckchairs combines a dye-sublimated 500g artists canvas (for weather resistance and colour-lasting strength), sewn to a sustainable and durable, teak oil treated hardwood frame. The standard dimensions for each chair is width: 60cm, height: 105.5cm, depth: 102.5cm, seat height: 43cm. Each chair has been lovingly produced in the UK by Southsea Deckchairs in Portsmouth.

Our Deckchairs at the Hay Festival
We recently completed several orders of branded deckchairs to be used at the Hay Festival of Literature and the Arts. Some examples can be viewed on a video over on The Telegraph's website here.
Putting your brand on our deckchairs for use at events and festivals is an effective, high impact way of getting your message across to potential customers. In addition, because our deckchairs are made for the contract market, you can be sure that they will cope with high traffic use and can be used again and again. Why not have a look at some other examples in our Branded Deckchair section of our site?

New Website Online
Following the success of our on-line shop, the Deckchair Boutique, last year, we have decided to place it at the heart of our newly designed site, providing a more streamlined shopping experience. We hope you find it quick and easy to find what you are looking for, at the very least - beautiful exterior furniture.
There will be more enhancements appearing over the coming weeks so it should become even more intuitive. We also have a couple of BIG announcements coming up shortly.
