Stecca Alto Fiber Reinforced Concrete Wooden Side Table - Outdoor Living

Details at a Glance

Fiber-reinforced concrete resists UV and moisture without sealing, and the solid teak base naturally repels water so the table can live on a covered patio year-round. The Urbia Stecca Alto fiber-reinforced concrete and teak outdoor side table, available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping, pairs a 40% fiber-reinforced concrete top with a 60% solid teak slatted base in a 13.75-inch-square footprint. At 48 pounds and no assembly required, you can place it beside lounge seating or next to an outdoor coffee table the same day it arrives.

How Well Does Fiber-Reinforced Concrete and Teak Handle Sun and Rain?

Fiber-reinforced concrete is engineered to resist UV fading and won't crack under temperature swings the way untreated concrete can. Solid teak's natural oils repel moisture and resist rot, so the slatted base won't swell or splinter when rain blows across the deck. Both materials develop a patina over time -- the concrete may show slight color variation and teak will silver if left untreated -- but that weathering is cosmetic and doesn't compromise structural integrity. Neither material requires sealing, though you can apply teak oil if you prefer to maintain the honey tone.

Can This Stay Outside All Year?

Yes, if you keep it on a covered patio or under an overhang where it won't sit in standing water. Fiber-reinforced concrete and teak both handle freeze-thaw cycles, but the concrete top can absorb moisture when exposed to prolonged rain, and repeated freeze-thaw in saturated conditions may eventually cause surface flaking. For full-winter exposure in cold climates, move the table into a shed or garage, or cover it with a breathable waterproof cover. If you're in a mild or coastal zone with no hard freeze, you can leave it out all season.

Where Does This Work Best on a Patio or Deck?

The 13.75-inch-square top fits beside a lounge chair or between two seats without crowding walkways, and the 18-inch height puts drinks and books at easy reach. Pair it with pieces from our outdoor coffee tables collection for layered seating zones, or use two as flanking outdoor side tables on a covered balcony. The dark grey concrete and natural teak work with modern minimalist schemes, and the compact footprint makes it useful indoors as a plant stand or accent piece when the weather turns.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the finish fade in direct sun?

Fiber-reinforced concrete and teak are both UV-resistant. The teak will develop a natural silver patina if left untreated, but that's weathering, not structural damage, and you can restore the honey tone with teak oil.

Is this suitable for a coastal or salt-air location?

Yes -- teak's natural oils resist salt air and the concrete top doesn't rust, so it's a solid choice for beachfront decks. Rinse it occasionally to prevent salt buildup on the surface.

How do I store it over winter?

Move it into a shed, garage, or dry storage where it won't sit in standing water. If that's not possible, cover it with a breathable waterproof cover and elevate it off the deck to prevent moisture absorption.

Can I use this indoors?

Absolutely -- the 48-pound weight keeps it stable, and the compact size works as a plant stand or accent table in modern living spaces.

Does it arrive assembled?

Yes, no assembly required. Place it where you want it as soon as it's delivered.

Do you offer free shipping?

Yes, free curbside delivery to the continental USA with no minimum purchase. White-glove delivery, in-room placement, and packaging removal are available upon request for an additional fee.
