The Tandem Alu coffee table is a practical and durable piece that has been constructed with a fully welded aluminium frame. This combination of finely sanded teak and powder coated aluminium creates a combination of industrial material and natural teak that ages and greys.
A-Grade Teak refers to the most mature part of the tree, found at the centre of the teak log. It is dense and rich in natural oil, which protects the timber from splintering and remains smooth even after years.
Durable Reinforced Alu Frame
For load-bearing structures, it is often necessary to reinforce the aluminium bar. Also known as hardened aluminium, this process involves inserting a steel rod or solid timber into the hollow aluminium bar to strengthen the component. This not only allows the piece to carry more weight, but it also limits the welded component from flexing, which undermines its durability.
