The Canadian National Exhibition (CNE) has been a long
standing tradition for many within the GTA, including a number of us at Classic
Displays, and this year we are happy to say we have become a part of that
tradition.
The CNE was looking to get away from the standard wooden
picnic tables, wanting something more sustainable and longer lasting, so they
came to see us and what we had to offer. After some deliberation, the CNE
decided to order a number of picnic tables and benches as part of a pilot
project. In total they ordered 40 picnic tables, 6 handicap accessible tables
and 36 benches to replace some of their existing furniture.
All of the benches and picnic tables that were ordered are
made from 100% recycled plastic lumber and have a 25 year limited warranty
against rotting, warping, splitting and cracking. Virtually maintenance free,
these benches and tables can easily handle the amount of traffic the CNE sees
year after year.
All of the benches and tables were assembled in house over
the course of a week and set to be delivered at the beginning of the following
week. It took 5 trips to the exhibition grounds to deliver all of pieces and
from there the CNE crew took over, placing the tables and benches throughout
the grounds.
The opportunity to work with the CNE has been very exciting
for us and something we hope to continue doing in the future. The CNE opens
August 16th and runs until September 2nd. With so much to
see and do we hope you check it out and make it a part of your summer
tradition!
