Event Chairs: Resin vs. Wood

Event Chairs: Resin vs. Wood

A common question from customers looking to buy event chairs is: Which is better, resin or wood? Unfortunately, there is no black-and-white answer. Instead, the answer is: It depends.

Both wood and resin chairs have their place in the event world. Both are solidly built and will last for many years.

The ultimate decision on which chair to choose comes down to the chair’s intended use and color choice.

If the chairs will be used outdoors, then resin chairs will stand up better to weather.

If you want a traditional look, then wood chairs are for you. The richness and feel of wood are unlike other materials.

Do you desire fruitwood, natural or distressed white colors? These colors are only available with a wooden chair.
