Who designs Gloster's products?

We commission various international furniture designers such as Povl Eskildsen (Denmark), Mark Gabbertas (UK), Staffan Hultgren (Sweden) and John Caldwell (USA) to design both individual pieces and entire ranges of furniture.

Why does Gloster offer such a large range of products?

We are committed to offering the consumer choice and have built up a diverse range of products to cater for all outdoor furniture requirements. Also, Gloster operates in all major markets world-wide and different markets have very different tastes and requirements for outdoor furniture. We therefore produce an extensive array of products to ensure appeal across all markets and tastes.

What's so special about the way Gloster makes its furniture?

We believe that our attention to detail is second to none. The easiest way to describe our attitude to design and finish is indoor production and quality standards combined with outdoor engineering and durability.

Can my furniture be kept outside all year round?

Yes, Gloster Furniture can be kept outside all 12 months of the year - wherever in the world you happen to live. Of course, furniture left outside all year will get more dirty than furniture that is just used in the summer, but the long-term performance and durability of the furniture is exactly the same.

How easy is Gloster furniture to assemble?

All our furniture is supplied either fully assembled or flat-packed in sub-assemblies to minimise the amount of final assembly required. All flat-packed items come complete with a pack of fittings and detailed, multi-lingual assembly instructions. Due to thoughtful design and the accuracy of our construction no glue is required to assemble our products. In most cases, furniture can be assembled within a few minutes by a single person with only a minimum of tools.

Where can I buy Gloster furniture?

Gloster does not sell direct to the general public, but our products are available to view and purchase in hundreds of high quality specialist and household furniture stores world-wide. To find out details of your local stockist, please use the store locator facility on this site.
