Frequently Asked Questions


        Question:

What happens to the products when it rains?

        Answer:

Not much! Once printed and varnished water merely runs off the products. Unlike beer mats they won’t ‘soak up’ and will easily withstand light showers and general usage on the beach or grass.


        Question:

Will the Backees seat take my weight?

        Answer:

It has been designed and tested to withstand weight up to 150 kilos or 23.5 Stone!


        Question:

Are all OutABox products environmentally friendly?

        Answer:

Naturally! All OutABox products are carbon neutral, 100% recyclable and biodegradable. Even the inks and varnish are biodegradable too! Visit environmental facts for more info.


        Question:

What will happen if they are left behind at the event?

        Answer:

Very simply, most people take them home for reuse, however if left behind at the event the promoter or local authority can benefit from the recycling. Otherwise the brand can obtain further exposure when next used!

What people are saying:

'I recently came across OutABox's products at a London Green Fair and was immediately impressed by their ecological ethics, standards and recyclability. As a volunteer for a global ecological organisation I have been on litter patrol at numerous festivals l and have been amazed and horrified by the amount of plastic and tubular steel chairs that are often discarded and only end up in landfill as they cannot be recycled. I can see that the OutABox range of event furniture would be taken home because it is light, durable and easy to carry, but if left behind they would immediately go for recycling. I would rather pick up OutABox than anything else'.


        Question:

Are the products heavy?

        Answer:

Most definitely not! The Backees seat weighs just 800 grams versus the tubular steel and polypropylene seats which are circa 2/3 kilos. Furthermore our Backees does not harm the grass nor block the view for others! The complete set of the Backees seat, table, parasol, pole and base weighs just 2 kilos in total!


        Question:

How comfortable are OutABox products?

        Answer:

Amazingly so! The Backees seat back will ‘mould’ to your own body weight and supports your shoulder blades providing comfort where needed. The base of the seat will keep you ‘dry’ from the ‘bottom up’! The table gives you starbursts to stop your drinks from falling over on the grass or sand and the parasol provides 100% sunblock and shade.


        Question:

Are they easy to assemble?

        Answer:

Child’s play, certainly easier than using that new photocopier! All OutABox products are folded flat for convenience to carry and simple ‘slot in’ tabs will have them assembled in seconds.


        Question:

How do I place an order and what happens next?
