We are a husband and wife team brought together by a love of creativity, engineering and modern design. We met while both getting our degree in Wood Finishing Technology and after completing school, we spent years working with coatings and finishes. It is from this first hand experience that we know all about the hassles of finishing and maintaining furniture, especially when it is used outdoors.
That’s why we set out to produce outdoor furniture that is stronger, more appealing and performs better than anything else available today. We take great pride in the fact that all of our furniture is maintenance free, derived from eco-friendly materials and engineered to last decades.
Why we do it.
The name 360Five is derived from two fundamental concepts that we passionately believe in. Firstly, 360 represents the full circle of recycled materials we use to make our furniture. Secondly, our products will last outside in any environment 365 days a year. Together, these ideas define our brand and solidify our objective of being an eco-conscious company that produces practical yet beautiful outdoor furnishings.
Today, our small but dynamic team designs, prototypes and builds each and every piece of furniture we offer. It is our greatest passion to provide people with high quality, modern, simply designed, and durable outdoor furniture. It is our goal to create furniture that truly makes “Outdoor living, elevated”.
What we’re made of.
Paper and plastic, it’s as simple as that. You could say we are the contents of your recycle bin, reincarnated.
The HDPE panels we use are made from recycled plastic that has been broken down and re-formed. Even once made into furniture, the plastic can be broken down and reused again.
And while the plastic is fantastic, the “wood” phenolic is what really sets us a part from the crowd. Made from sheets of FSC certified Kraft paper coated in phenolic resin and sandwiched between two sheets of high pressure laminate, not only is it eye catching, it provides our furniture with strength, resilience and stability not found in any other outdoor furniture. Engineered to be building cladding, it will never crack, warp, splinter or need to be refinished. Some companies use it to brace their furniture, we use it to make our furniture.
Both materials are made in the USA and are zero-maintenance, UV-resistant, waterproof, all weather, and resistant to temperature variations.
