General FAQ'S

Can I Leave My GCI Outdoor Products Outside?

Our chairs are not made with weatherproof materials, so prolonged exposure to sunlight, rain, or other weather conditions can cause the fabric to degrade. 

If your chair gets wet, we recommend allowing it to dry fully before folding and storing it. Please be aware that some parts of our tables and chairs contain steel, which may rust if not stored indoors after use.

Our canopies are not designed to be waterproof and should not be used in heavy rain. Rainwater may pool in the fabric and potentially damage the cover or frame, and this damage is not covered under the warranty.

As a reminder, our products are intended to be treated as gear that should be kept indoors when not in use. Continued exposure to the elements will void the warranty and accelerate wear and tear on the materials.

What Is Powder Coating?

Powder coating is a process whereby an electrostatically charged powder or paint is applied to the tube exterior and then “baked” at extreme temperatures to assure a durable and aesthetic tube finish.

What is Proposition 65?

Proposition 65 (also known as the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986) requires California to publish a list of chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm and requires businesses to put labelled warnings on products that may expose Californian consumers to chemicals in that list. These warnings are to help consumers make informed decisions about possible exposure to chemicals used on products. 

All of our products are in accordance with Prop 65 law and are labeled appropriately. Any products that are required to show the label are visible for the consumer.
