We like to work with clients who recognise and value quality. It is a choice that pays off over time: our products are made to last and to keep giving satisfaction year after year, confirming the value of the investment from the very beginning.
True craftsmanship.
Who we are
Arco Outdoor was born over thirty-five years ago from a simple conviction shared by Michael Düring: “quality is not something added at the end; it is something built from the very beginning.”
His ambition has always been to create furniture made to last, with an uncompromising focus on materials, craftsmanship and design.
This search eventually led him to teak, a wood that is far more than a precious material. It is a material that demands knowledge, experience and respect.
“Teak leaves no room for approximation.”
This is why Michael has spent much of his life searching for the finest teak, travelling to understand first-hand the places where it grows and learning to recognise its quality, grain, stability and subtle characteristics that often escape an untrained eye. He then personally selected his suppliers, gradually building a supply chain controlled at every stage.
At Arco Outdoor, this philosophy comes to life.
We value quality over quantity. Each project is personally followed at every stage: from material selection to production, through to the direct relationship we build with the client.
Where Timeless Design Meets Modern Living
Our outdoor products are designed by Danish architect Povl B. Eskildsen, with a clear purpose: to create essential, enduring pieces capable of standing the test of time while preserving their value.
“La qualità si vede dopo dieci anni. Non il giorno della consegna.”
For Michael, true craftsmanship means creating pieces that are solid, balanced and coherent in every detail.
“Everyone notices the workmanship. Almost everyone overlooks the details. I don’t.”
In a market shaped by speed and consumption, Arco Outdoor follows a different philosophy: producing less, controlling every detail more closely, and creating pieces designed to stand the test of time.
“Design should not chase time. It should stand the test of it.”
