TRANSCRIPT
In 1955 our founder Gérard Bruneau decided to supplement his income by making quality garden furniture for a few friends and family. Very soon the reputation of his skill for making high quality and durable outdoor furniture became known throughout his little village in Canada and its surroundings. Later with the help of his son Francoisthey decided to expand the product line and to start selling to an expanding client base. They did this with the promise to keep the same high quality standards ofworkmanship and customer service that have made their heirloom quality products sought after the world over. We are happy to say that we have kept our company a family owed operation with 3 generations working side by side. We are proud to say that all our products are hand made with love and care by our own local North American expert craftsmen, and of the fact that we have kept our company at the forefront of environmental sustainability. We refuse to make our furniture with old growth forest products and we only use materials from North America to make our high quality furniture. Our products are now enjoyed the world over from Canada to the US to as far away as New Zealand, Japan and all over Europe.One of the keys to our success has not only been to always work at bettering the quality of our products and services throughout the years, but also to have forward thinking in offering to our clients an unbeatable satisfaction guarantee. An unheard of full 10 year guarantee on our workmanship.
We know you will be satisfied. We guarantee it!

DFC Woodworks Inc.Our exclusive Treating process
We are proud to offer only the finest finish available using the best outdoor stain on the market today. Cetol #1 by Sikkens, not only do we use the finest stain available but its our
unique application process that sets us apart from every one else. Before the final assembly, and after a fine hand sanding has been done thoroughly, all the furniture
to be treated is individually immersed in a 80 gallon vat of Cetol #1 by Sikkens for the first coat application. All the pieces are then carefully placed to dry and once dry all the same pieces get a thorough very fine hand sanding and all the dust is wiped away .
A second coat is then applied by spray. The same process is repeated twice more with finer sand paper used progressively for a full 4 coat application. We give our treated products a
thorough and fine application with a very durable finish.Because of this unique and thorough application process we can only provide two color
choices on our furniture, dark Mahogany (045) and light Golden (078).
Cetol 1 by Sikkens is internationally recognized as one of the best stains on the market. This stain creates a durable flexible film coating that penetrates the wood surface yet lets the wood "breathe" to accommodate constantly changing climatic conditions. It will not crack, blister or peel and is an excellent water repellent
as water will bead on it.Over time this finish will wear away( 3 to 5 years) and a thin application will need to be reapplied.

What is a Forever Adirondack ChairWe are proud to say that we now have made a chair out of the

It is 3 times heavier than our Cedar Royal chair at 87lbs.We use oversized Stainless steel hardware and all the pieces are
finely sanded for that extra smooth finish.As the wood is very dense it will not accept stain or paints easily
and is best left to turn to a natural grey.Because this chair is so tough and durable we have extended
Our 10 year Guarantee to a
LIFE TIME GUARANTEE.

as to permit even having someone sitting on the arms.This chair is heavier than our cedar model and will not
topple in heavy winds.Great for people who want their furniture to look and feel
heavy and solid. Because they are made out of pine they will not last as long as the Clear western red cedar models
though. But they do come with a
