Product Detail Description:
1. The Aluminum Advantage: Why Coastal Hotels Choose DERBAL
In Sanya’s luxury beach resorts, furniture battles relentless salt spray and 90% humidity. Traditional iron rusts within months; cheap plastic cracks under UV rays. DERBAL’s solution? T6-6063 aluminum alloy – the same material used in yacht fittings. Its secret? A natural oxide layer that self-heals scratches, paired with a powder-coated finish (0.15mm thickness, tested per ASTM B117). This Sun lounger laughs at monsoons.
2. Rattan Reinvented: Where Aesthetics Meet Function
Unlike brittle natural rattan, our high-density polyethylene (HDPE) weave mimics tropical elegance without the upkeep. Key innovations:
- UV-Immune: Lab-tested to retain color and flexibility after 3 years of direct sunlight (equivalent to 15,000 MJ/m² UV dosage).
- Self-Ventilating Design: Open weave pattern reduces heat retention by 40% vs. solid materials – no more scorched backs.
- Sand-Proof: Smooth, non-porous surface shakes off sand and salt in seconds.
3. Ergonomics Engineered for Hospitality
Guests don’t tolerate discomfort – especially when paying $1,000/night. We collaborated with Bali’s Ayana Resort engineering team to optimize:
- Adjustable Backrest: Silent, tool-free recline from upright dining (20°) to flat sunbathing (160°).
- Weight Distribution: Reinforced leg joints prevent “sinking” in sand – tested on Maldives’ beaches.
- Armrest Geometry: 3.5″ width with rounded edges – stable enough for cocktail trays, gentle on elbows.
4. Housekeeping’s Secret Weapon
Hotel managers face a nightmare: broken furniture during peak season. Our design eliminates their pain points:
- No Crevices: Smooth, welded joints prevent sand/salt buildup – cleans with a hose in 60 seconds.
- Stackable Design: Nest up to 10 units for compact storage during typhoons.
- Anti-Theft: Built-in anchor points for cable locks (accessories optional).

Application Scenarios:
1. Five-Star Poolside Luxury
At Dubai’s Burj Al Arab, identical loungers line the horizon pool. Their non-slip feet grip wet tiles, while the aluminum’s thermal conductivity prevents overheating – even at 45°C.
2. Coastal Wedding Venues
Cluster in groups of 6 around fire pits. The rattan’s champagne-gold finish complements sunset weddings, while quick-dry cushions (optional) survive champagne spills.
3. Boutique Hotel Balconies
Compact enough for urban rooftop terraces yet sturdy for all-day lounging. A favorite at Shanghai’s The PuLi Hotel – where space meets sophistication.
4. Beach Club Workstations
Adjust the backrest to 100° for “laptop mode” – a growing trend in Bali’s digital nomad resorts. The rattan’s airflow keeps users cool during 4-hour work sessions.
FAQ Section:
Q: Will the aluminum frame corrode in coastal areas?
A: No. T6-6063 alloy is naturally corrosion-resistant. Our stress tests in Hainan’s surf zones (pH 8.1 seawater) show zero rust after 5 years.
Q: How to clean salt deposits from rattan?
A: Rinse with fresh water monthly. For stubborn residue, use a soft brush + mild soap. Avoid pressure washers – they’re overkill.
Q: Can guests adjust the backrest without instructions?
A: Absolutely. The lever-free mechanism is intuitive – pull up to recline, push down to lock. No pinched fingers, even with wet hands.
Q: Are replacement parts available?
A: Yes. We stock all components for 10+ years. Most resorts order extra rattan rolls for quick repairs – though none have needed them yet.
Q: How does EN581 certification benefit hotels?
A: It guarantees commercial-grade durability: 200kg dynamic load testing, 100,000 recline cycles, and UV resistance. Your insurance premiums thank you.
Q: What colors are available?
A: Choose from 8 powder-coated frame hues (black, champagne, slate gray, etc.) and 3 rattan tones. Custom Pantone matches available for 100+ units.
