Thirty years ago, in 1981, the Gloster brand was a specialist, UK based manufacturer of teak garden benches and seats. Soon they were exporting their furniture all around the world. Over the 80′s and 90′s Gloster grew to be the principle high end worldwide brand for teak outdoor furniture. In April 1992 new owners took over the company and manufacturing was moved to their own factory in Java, Indonesia. At the end of the 1990′s Gloster diversified into different types of furniture, including folding chairs, dining tables and sunloungers. Now they are one of the worldwide leaders in teak, aluminum, stainless steel and now outdoor lounge furniture.
Whatever the material however, they believe that quality is everything – they do not cut any corners or manufacture their products to any price-point. You will probably be able to find cheaper outdoor furniture, but you won’t find better.
Also key to their philosophy, is the belief that outdoor furniture is as important a style statement as indoor furniture, hence their range incorporates both classic and contemporary designs to cater for all tastes and requirements. And, as it was right at the start, they remain committed to green and ethical policies in everything they do.
