Aluminum Alloy Frames
Custom designed frame members are extruded aluminum, which is light in weight and will not rust. The inherent features of DPC's aluminum are enhanced by alloying it with:
- Titanium - Refines grain structure for strength.
- Magnesium and Silicon - Aid in the extrusion process as well as adding strength.
- Manganese, Copper and Chromium - Further adds to the strength of the extrusion.
Frame Features
Structural integrity through engineered welding technique and special bracing members. Exclusive new extrusion designs provide both strength and improved appearance. New leg design for reduced floor spread and increased vertical stability. Exclusive front to back stacking bar design for greater distribution of weight, when stacked to maximum height.

Polyurethane Foam Flammability
Foam cushioning meets the flammability requirements of Technical Bulletin California 117-2013. Overlap of seat panel maintains shape, provides comfort and extends upholstery life.
Seat Construction
Comfort curved seat features high density molded foam with injection molded seat panel which is fastened to the frame by Nylock™ bolts to assure positive holding in heavy duty use. The plasticized seat bottom has coordinated air escape holes.
Back Construction
There is no visible fastenings to detract from the overall design. Compound curves on specified models offer extra comfort during extended seating use. The matched back panels, with front and back upholstery, are injection molded.
Triple Umbrella Glides
Three heat treated spring steel clips provide support and holding power for heavy duty contract use. Chrome plated steel base with rubber cushion inset operates easily over carpeted and hard surface flooring. Molded vinyl ferrules protect frame and upholstery from end of legs when chairs are stacked for storage or transport. Test results at SGS Laboratory Testing Center indicate glide withstands 436 pounds of pulling resistance.
Powder Coated Finishes - Standard
Frames are cleaned and chemically treated prior to electrostatic application of powder coating.
Outdoor Seating Anodized Aluminum Frames
Features clear anodized aluminum finish for years of trouble free use.
