If you’re looking for the best picnic tables for your park or outdoor space, consider the benefits of plastic-coated steel furniture. The thick, protective coating (also known as a thermoplastic coating) on these tables is a scientific marvel that was developed more than 70 years ago. Using a thermoset process, heat is applied to its initial powder form to melt the coating, which then forms an even finish that fuses to a metal surface. Over the decades, the process has evolved to make thermoplastic coating stronger and safer than ever, which is why it is a great feature for picnic tables.
At Picnic Table Supplier, our plastic-coated picnic tables are all-time customer favorites – and here are five reasons why:
#1 – They withstand harsh elements
The thick, thermoplastic coatings on our outdoor tabletops and seats provide the ultimate protection against rust, corrosion, and other environmental elements that would normally damage non-coated materials. Tables like the RHINO Round Thermoplastic Steel Picnic Table feature a powder-coated steel frame with a tough, polyolefin thermoplastic coating, which is the strongest in the industry. This same coating is used on oil rig pipes under the ocean and prevent weathering effects as well as marring, mildew, and mold.
Other tables like the Square Thermoplastic Steel Picnic Table are coated with polyethylene thermoplastic that also protects from damaging weather effects such as rusting, chipping, and fading. This coating stands up to heavy wear and tear, making it an ideal picnic table for highly populated areas like parks and schools.
#2 – They are easy to maintain
With a plastic-coated table, you just place it and forget it! These picnic tables are low maintenance and don’t require regular cleaning. The perforated surfaces allow liquids and other objects to fall through the openings, so food and drink won’t accumulate and harden. When you do want to clean your tables, simply wipe them down with soap and water.
As an added plus, thermoplastic surfaces are vandal-resistant because spray paint has a hard time adhering to the coating. If any paint does appear, it can be easily removed with WD-40 or other industrial cleaners without damaging the coating. Our Round Regal Thermoplastic Steel Picnic Table is a great choice if you’re looking for high functionality and durability. Part of our Canteen series of picnic tables, this sturdy, 8-seat capacity table provides years of long-lasting use.
#3 – They are environmentally friendly
Powder coating and thermoplastic technology have come a long way. In the 1940s, coatings were flame-sprayed onto metal surfaces, but there was growing concern over the environmental repercussions of liquid solvent pollution. In the 1950s, a more efficient and safer application of heating and melting thermoplastic resins were invented. With constant technological advances, today’s material no longer contains solvents and has minimal to no volatile organic compounds (VOCs), making it much safer for the environment. What better way to complement your outdoor environment than with tables that won’t harm guests or their surroundings?
#4 – They come in an assortment of styles and colors
Picnic tables may be practical, but that doesn’t mean they need to be boring. Picnic Table Supplier offers several table styles – including classic, expanded, and perforated designs – as well as ADA-compliant tables that provide easy wheelchair access.

Our plastic-coated tables also come in an array of colors for the tabletop, seats, and frame. We give you the option to select one color for the top and seats and another color for the frame, so if you want to incorporate school or logo colors into your picnic tables, you can!
