About Grosfillex
Grosfillex Commercial Outdoor Furniture & Resin Solutions
Grosfillex, founded in Arbent, France in 1927 and now a leading manufacturer of commercial-grade outdoor furniture, opened its U.S. manufacturing plant in Robesonia, Pennsylvania in 1983. The brand pioneered the resin monobloc stackable chair design and is now trusted by hospitality, resort, and food-service operators worldwide for durable, low-maintenance poolside and patio furniture that withstands constant daily use, heavy traffic, and extreme sun exposure.
The Grosfillex product line comprises over 800 distinct outdoor restaurant and hospitality furniture items, including stackable dining and armchairs, chaise lounges, lounge chairs, sling seating, commercial-grade dining tables, bar-height seating, and matching commercial umbrellas. All pieces are engineered from high-density resin (thermoformed polyethylene or polypropylene) with UV inhibitors and color-fast pigments to resist fading, yellowing, and embrittlement over 10+ years of outdoor exposure.
Materials meet ASTM D6775 standards for outdoor plastic furnishings, with testing for impact resistance, fade, flexural strength, and moisture absorption per American Society for Testing and Materials specifications. Resin construction provides rust-free, corrosion-resistant surfaces that require only water and mild soap for cleaning—no refinishing, painting, or rust treatment needed, unlike wooden or metal alternatives common in hospitality settings.
Grosfillex furniture is widely deployed in restaurants, hotels, resorts, casinos, pool decks, cruise ships, and institutional dining environments across North America and Europe. The stackable design minimizes storage footprint during off-season or redesigns, and the lightweight nature of resin allows staff to rearrange settings quickly without machinery or heavy lifting.
ChatMRO's AI procurement assistant lets you specify the chair style, table size, color, and quantity needed—Grosfillex stackable armchairs in gray, chaise lounges for pool decks, or dining tables in a particular finish—and instantly retrieves matching products, stock status, and pricing from our indexed catalog, eliminating email back-and-forth with hospitality suppliers.

Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between Grosfillex monobloc and sling seating?
Monobloc chairs are one-piece molded resin bodies (seat, back, and frame integrated), lightweight, stackable, and easy to clean. Sling seating features a resin or aluminum frame with fabric sling straps, offering a more refined lounge aesthetic but requiring more storage space and periodic sling fabric inspection for UV degradation. Monobloc is ideal for high-traffic dining; sling suits resort lounging and premium aesthetic settings.
How long does Grosfillex outdoor furniture typically last in full sun?
Grosfillex resin furniture is engineered for 10+ years of outdoor service in temperate and tropical UV environments when maintained per manufacturer guidelines (annual washing, occasional surface sealant refresh in extreme climates). The high-density resin and UV inhibitor formulations resist fading and embrittlement, though color intensity may gradually mute after 5–7 years of continuous direct sun exposure; some customers refresh pieces on a 7–10 year lifecycle.
Are Grosfillex chairs stackable, and how many stack safely?
Monobloc stackable models stack to 8–12 chairs depending on frame design and load rating per ASTM D6775 (typically supporting 250–300 lbs per chair). Sling-frame chairs may stack to 4–6 depending on design; always verify the manufacturer's stacking recommendations for your specific model and never exceed rated load limits to avoid frame failure or sling strain damage.
What cleaning and maintenance does Grosfillex furniture require?
Annual washing with mild dish soap and water, scrubbing with a soft brush if algae or mildew builds up in humid climates, and air-drying completely before stacking. In salt-air (coastal) environments, rinse monthly with fresh water and inspect sling fabrics for discoloration; avoid abrasive cleaners, power washers at high pressure, or solvents that can degrade the resin finish or sling material.
Can Grosfillex furniture be repaired if a leg or arm cracks?
Minor cracks in the resin can be patched with two-part epoxy or plastic adhesive kits available from distributors. Major structural damage (cracked seat pan, broken frame) typically requires replacement; resin monobloc designs are not economically reweldable like metal frames. Sling frames with broken straps can have the sling fabric replaced separately, extending the frame's service life.
