Set your home in stone. Or concrete.
Concrete tables combine sleek modern aesthetics with durability and have become a staple for any home and an excellent investment for homeowners.
What makes concrete dining tables the top choice?
Their unmatched durability
Concrete tables aren’t prone to warping over time the way wooden tables are, or scratches and cracks like glass tables. Concrete is built to last, so it can withstand the daily wear and tear, and even environmental factors like temperature and humidity changes.
Versatility in style.
Concrete tables can be customised to fit any aesthetic - whether you want to go for a sleek polished look, or a more rustic finish, a concrete table will be sure to compliment the style. A big plus with a concrete table is the neutral colour palette. Because concrete tables are usually grey or white, the understated hues allow other elements in your design scheme to stand out.
Easily Maintained.
Concrete tables are usually stained and scratch resistant (not 100% though), so it isn’t complex or demanding to keep your concrete table clean or in top condition. Here are some easy tips to keep it maintained:
- Use mats and coasters - especially if you’re planning to place hot dishes or cookware on the table. While concrete is heat resistant, it can still crack under thermal shock.
- Stick felt pads under heavy decorative items so you can avoid any scratches.
- If your table is subject to impacts, chipping and cracking will be unavoidable. Make sure there are no heavy objects dropped on the table, or people sitting/leaning on it.
- If your concrete table is set up outside, cover the surface when not in use. Prolonged sun exposure can cause discolouration or fading.
