Business Details
Timeless Outdoor Furniture Designed for Elegance and Durability
Established in the early 1970s, Yardware is a family-owned Australian business with three generations of expertise in crafting premium outdoor furniture. Our journey began in Sydney, where we pioneered hand-forged steel furniture before innovating with Glass-Fibre Reinforced Concrete (GRC), a material twice as strong as concrete yet half the weight. Over five decades, we've expanded from a local workshop to an international presence, maintaining our commitment to timeless design and durability. Our curated collections blend classic and contemporary styles, offering clients mix-and-match decor options for customised outdoor spaces.Every piece is hand-finished in Sydney, reflecting our dedication to quality, sustainability, and functional artistry. We serve clients across Australia, from coastal retreats to urban terraces, with a focus on elevating outdoor living through enduring craftsmanship. Our team combines heritage techniques with modern innovation, ensuring each product withstands time, sun, and sea while maintaining aesthetic sophistication. As direct manufacturers, we guarantee authenticity and value, prioritising customer satisfaction through tailored service and low-maintenance, long-lasting furniture solutions.

Services
Outdoor Furniture
Handcrafted outdoor furniture combining GRC and steel for enduring quality. Designed to withstand harsh weather while maintaining aesthetic appeal, our collections cater to dining, lounging, and decorative needs. Each piece is engineered for longevity, requiring minimal maintenance while retaining its structural integrity and visual elegance across decades of use.
GRC Products
Innovative GRC (Glass-Fibre Reinforced Concrete) furniture offering superior strength-to-weight ratio. Twice as durable as traditional concrete yet half the weight, these products allow complex sculptural forms without compromising resilience. Ideal for creating statement pieces that resist weathering while maintaining architectural sophistication in both residential and commercial settings.
Custom Design
Personalised outdoor space planning with mix-and-match decor items. Our consultants help clients curate cohesive environments using curated palettes and material combinations. From coastal retreats to urban terraces, we provide design guidance ensuring each installation reflects individual tastes while maintaining functional elegance and long-term value.
Steel Furniture
Traditional hand-forged steel furniture with hot-dip galvanisation for corrosion resistance. Each piece undergoes artisan finishing processes to achieve unique textures and patinas. This collection merges industrial strength with organic forms, creating durable outdoor pieces that develop character over time while maintaining structural integrity in diverse climates.
International Delivery
Comprehensive delivery solutions covering Australia's East Coast and beyond. Our logistics team ensures safe transportation of fragile items using specialised handling techniques. From Sydney-based warehouses to remote locations, we coordinate installations with precision care, minimising client effort through fully managed delivery experiences that prioritise product protection and timely execution.

I cannot speak highly enough about the staff at Yardware. Nothing is too much for them to do. Nothing is too difficult for them to undertake. In this day of poor customer service, this company stands out like a shining beacon. Thank you Owen, Bernard and Alan

Love Yardware,
Staff are great, they helped me with hiring / creating an Outdoor Banquet Table (2 tables together & chairs for our 22 guests) for my Husbands Suprise 40th Birthday Party! I told them what my vision of the party was and they worked with me to help make it happen. Delivery people were great as well, they told me the 2 hour window of time they would be there, and even called me 30 mins prior to arriving. As it was going on old sandstone pavers which weren't exactly level - they even spent a few minutes helping to make sure the tables didn't wobble ! We loved the look of the table
