Description
An outdoor sun lounger is bought for one decision the catalogue photograph never shows: how long the guest stays on it, and how wet the chair gets between swims. The four models in this group answer that decision differently. One is a woven box with a strapped cushion, one is a taut sling on a black curve, one is a wide daybed with a wooden tray at the foot, and one folds flat and follows the deck. They are four answers to the same question, not four grades of the same chair.
The first is the woven box. PE rattan in a driftwood range, grey and taupe and light beige strands running through one horizontal over-under weave, wraps a rectangular metal frame down to a solid plinth, and the plinth stands on four square polished metal feet. There are no wheels and no armrests; the outline stays a low rectangle. The backrest lifts on a ratchet, a light metal support bar dropping into a notched track fixed inside the frame. Five notches are visible in the photographs, so five angles between flat and upright. A two-section cream cushion, joined at the hip, runs the full length, and a wide fabric strap around the backrest keeps it from sliding when the back comes up. A small metal plate on the front right of the base carries the badge; nothing else is printed on the piece.
The second sun lounger is a sling chaise, the chaise lounge shape with the back carried on one long curve. The frame is matte black powder-coated tubing bent into a long S, the armrests arch out of the same side rail rather than being bolted on, and the seating surface is a single panel of light grey textilene stretched until it is firm. Behind the back there is a notched support bar, so the angle is set by lifting the back and dropping the bar one notch lower. A grey padded headrest, strapped around the back rail, is the only soft part; there is no full cushion. The legs end in flat black caps, and each chaise is paired with a square side table, black, slatted top, four straight legs. The fabric carries a printed line worth reading at specification stage: breathable, quick dry, high density, wear resistance. On a pool deck where a chair is wet from ten in the morning, that printed line is the whole argument.
The third is an outdoor daybed, and it is the widest sun lounger in the group at 227 by 66 by 68 centimetres. The frame is charcoal aluminium with wide angled legs, and the cushion is thick, light blue-grey, piped at the seams, with two rectangular back pillows loose on top. The backrest lifts on a ratchet under the headrest. What separates it from a plain sun lounger is the platform at the foot end: light-toned wooden slats set inside the frame line, wide enough for a bottle, a phone and a folded towel, so nobody balances a drink on the deck. It packs as one carton to the set.
The fourth folds. The tube is oval rather than round, matte charcoal, and the sling is one continuous panel of black textilene running from the top of the back to the front rail. The armrests are solid wood with the grain left visible, honey-brown against the dark frame, and the chair folds on a scissor X with composite pivot caps and a recessed bolt at the rear of each armrest. The listing gives six positions for the back. It needs no assembly, it stands flat against a wall, and it is the only one of the four that travels.
What holds this group together is not a shape, it is a discipline. Every sun lounger frame is cut on the same bender in Jiaxing and finished in the same powder booth, every sling is cut and tensioned on the same table, every cushion is cut and filled on the same line. A mixed container is therefore not a favour granted at the end of a quotation; it is the normal way the plant schedules. The backrest hardware follows one idea in four forms, a notched bar the user lifts and drops by hand. No sun lounger in this group needs a tool to change angle, and none of the four carries wheels: they sit on polished feet, on flat caps, on angled legs.
Choose a sun lounger by the deck rather than by the picture. A covered terrace that never sees standing water, where a guest reads for two hours, takes the woven box, because the cushion is the comfort. An open pool deck where chairs are soaked all afternoon takes the sling chaise, because it drains and dries and there is nothing to carry in. A hotel terrace where two people sit down with glasses and the sun keeps moving takes the daybed, because of the width and the tray. A beach club, an event, a rental fleet or a balcony takes the folding chair, because it stores flat and weighs what an aluminium frame weighs.
Capacity runs 102 sets per 30 days on the sling chaise and 119 on the daybed, from a plant 90 kilometres from Shanghai and 90 from Hangzhou. Terms are 30 percent deposit with the balance against the B/L copy, and every shell in the group carries a one-year after-sale.
Key Features
- Four sun lounger shells on one purchase order: a woven PE rattan box, a textilene sling chaise, a wide cushioned daybed and a folding beach chair, so one container can serve a terrace, a pool and a beach bar at once.
- Every sun lounger in the group adjusts by hand: a five-notch ratchet track inside the woven frame, a notched support bar behind the sling, a ratchet under the daybed headrest, six positions on the folding chair.
- No wheels, no castors, no moving base on any of the four. The feet are polished metal blocks, flat black caps or angled legs, which is what keeps a sun lounger stable on tile and on decking.
- The sling chaise and the folding chair are the two textilene sun lounger shells, and the mill rates that fabric as breathable, quick dry, high density and wear resistant, the four properties that decide whether a pool lounger is usable at eleven in the morning.
- The daybed carries an integrated wooden slat platform at the foot end, inside the frame line, sized for a bottle, a phone and a towel.
- The woven-box sun lounger carries a two-section cream cushion joined at the hip, held to the backrest by a wide fabric strap rather than by ties, so it stays put when the back is raised.
- The folding sun lounger has solid wood armrests with the grain left visible and an oval tube frame, and it needs no assembly at delivery.
- Frames are aluminium or aluminium-and-steel tube, powder-coated, with welds dressed before coating; the photographs show no bead and no sharp edge at the joints.
- Every cushioned sun lounger in the group uses 180 gsm polyester over 100 percent polyester wadding, which is the specification that survives a hotel laundry rotation.
- One bender, one powder booth and one cushion line behind all four, so a mixed order does not split the lead time across suppliers.

Inches are the original specification on the sling chaise and centimetres on the daybed; both are reproduced here as the listings carry them rather than converted into one house unit. The woven box and the folding chair are dimensioned on the sample, because neither listing publishes a size, and a nominal figure typed into a table is worse than no figure at all for a buyer calculating a deck layout.

Materials & Finish
- PE rattan on the woven-box sun lounger is a multi-tonal extrusion, grey, taupe and light beige in one strand range, woven over a rectangular metal frame in a horizontal over-under pattern and tucked and fastened on the inside of each rail rather than stapled to the face.
- The weave on the woven sun lounger is tight enough to read as a solid block from three metres and open enough to show the strand pattern at one metre, which is what the driftwood colour range is chosen for.
- Textilene on the sling chaise and the folding chair is a tight uniform grid, cut as one panel per seat and tensioned into the frame channel with a solid binding along each edge, so there is no seam under the hip.
- Frames are powder-coated after welding, and the welds are dressed first; on the folding chair the joint reads as a continuous surface with no bead showing through the matte finish.
- The oval tube on the folding sun lounger is a deliberate choice rather than a decoration: an oval section resists the twist a person puts on an armrest when they push up out of a low chair.
- Solid wood armrests are sanded and finished with a clear or lightly oiled coat, grain left visible, and they are fastened to the frame with a recessed bolt at the rear joint.
- Cushion fabric is 180 gsm polyester over 100 percent polyester wadding; the daybed cushion is piped at the seams so the edge holds its line after a season of use.
- Metal contact points, feet, caps and pivot covers, are the parts that touch tile and decking; on this group they are polished blocks, flat black caps and composite pivot caps rather than exposed tube ends.
Assembly & Installation
- The woven-box sun lounger arrives with the frame welded, the weave finished and the backrest already hinged into its track; the only work on site is fitting the four block feet and dropping the cushion strap over the back.
- The sling sun lounger arrives with the side rails welded as one piece, so assembly is limited to seating the backrest bar in its track and strapping the headrest around the back rail.
- The daybed is the one shell that needs bolts: legs to frame, then the wooden slat platform into the foot end, with the ratchet already mounted under the headrest.
- The folding chair needs no assembly. It comes folded, opens on the scissor X, and locks when the seat is pressed down.
- Set every sun lounger on a flat surface before the backrest is loaded. A notched bar that is forced into its track on uneven ground is the one failure mode this hardware has.
- Leave 600 mm between loungers on a pool deck, measured at the widest point of the frame, so a backrest can be dropped to flat without touching the chair beside it.
- The two textilene shells, the pool lounger and the folding chair, may be hosed down and left in the rain; the woven box and the daybed carry cushions and should be brought in or covered overnight.
- On a coastal site, rinse the frames monthly. Powder coating protects the tube, not the pivot hardware, and salt sits in a pivot longer than it sits on a rail.
Applications
- Hotel pool terraces, where two sun lounger shells, the outdoor daybed and the sling chaise, sit in the same row and the guest picks width or drainage.
- Resort gardens and cabana decks, where the woven box reads as furniture rather than equipment and belongs under a pergola.
- Beach clubs and rental fleets, where the folding chair is stored flat overnight and replaced without a maintenance call.
- Residential pools and roof terraces, where one or two sun loungers are bought rather than a row, and the sling chaise covers the wet end of the deck.
- Spas and wellness courtyards, where the outdoor daybed doubles as a treatment lounger and a sunbed for two and the wooden tray holds a water carafe.
- Event and hospitality overflow, where a mixed container of four shells is cheaper to place than four separate orders.

Packing & Logistics
- The woven box ships one set to a carton with mail packing accepted, so it can go to a consumer address as well as a warehouse.
- The sling sun lounger ships two cartons to a set, frame in one and the flat components in the other, which keeps the carton length inside a standard pallet footprint.
- The daybed sun lounger ships one carton to the set at 227 cm, so confirm the container loading plan against the carton length before the order is fixed.
- The folding chair ships folded, and mail packing is not accepted on this shell; it is a pallet and carton product, not a parcel product.
- Cartons can be printed with the buyer's brand and handling marks, and mixed containers are loaded by shell so a receiver can split a delivery without opening every carton.
Service
- Quotation states the shell, the weave or sling colour, the frame finish, the cushion fabric and the carton count, so nothing in the group is left to a later email.
- Samples are built on the production line rather than in a sample room, which means the sun lounger you approve is the sun lounger the bender and the powder booth will make.
- Order tracking runs against the confirmed capacity, 102 or 119 sets per 30 days depending on shell, with photographs at coating and at packing.
- Spare parts, feet, caps, pivot covers and backrest bars, are quoted against the frame code so a hotel can repair a row instead of replacing it.
- One-year after-sale covers frame, coating and hardware, and claims are answered with a part number and a shipping date rather than a case number.
Certifications
- ISO 9001 quality management across the Jiaxing plant, covering frame bending, welding, powder coating and cushion cutting under one system.
- FSC certification relevant to the solid wood armrests on the folding chair and the slat platform on the daybed.
- Amfori BSCI social compliance audit, which is the document a European retail buyer asks for before a first order.
- Incoming, in-process and outgoing inspection, IQC on tube and fabric, IPQC on welding and coating, OQC on the packed carton.
- One-year after-sale on every sun lounger in the group, with replacement parts quoted against the frame code rather than the finished product.
Which sun lounger dries fastest after rain? The sling chaise and the folding chair, both textilene panels with no cushion. Water passes through the weave and the frame drains at the low point. The woven box and the daybed carry cushions, and a wet cushion is the part that decides whether the chair is usable the next morning.
Can the backrest be set fully flat on all four? Yes, on the woven box, the sling chaise and the daybed, where the back drops until the notched bar or the ratchet reaches its last position. The folding chair is listed with six positions and is sold as a beach chair or beach lounger rather than a flat pool lounger.
Do any of these sun loungers stack or nest? Only the folding chair folds, and it folds flat rather than nesting. The other three are fixed frames on welded legs, so storage is a footprint question, not a stacking question, and that is worth knowing before a seasonal terrace is specified.
Why is there no wheel on any sun lounger in this group? Because a wheel on a sun lounger is a corrosion point first and a convenience second. These four sit on polished metal blocks, flat black caps or angled legs, and they are moved by lifting the frame end, which is how a pool deck is actually reset each evening.
What are the actual dimensions? The sling sun lounger is published at 32.2 in high, 20 in wide and 60 in long, and the daybed at 227 by 66 by 68 cm. The woven box and the folding chair are dimensioned on the sample, because their listings carry no size and a guessed figure would be worse than none for deck planning.
Can the four shells ship in one container? Yes. The four sun lounger shells share one bender, one powder booth and one cushion line, so a mixed container is scheduled as one order. Lead time is quoted against the mix, and the standing capacities are 102 sets per 30 days on the sling chaise and 119 on the daybed.
