Our Story — Recycled Outdoor Furniture Made on the Outer Banks Since 1986
Carolina Casual Inc. is a family-owned outdoor furniture manufacturer in Jarvisburg, North Carolina. Since 1986, we’ve been handcrafting premium recycled plastic outdoor furniture right here in the USA — and selling it directly to the people who will use it.
Why We Started
We live on the Outer Banks. We’ve seen what sun, salt air, and Atlantic storms do to wood furniture. We’ve watched teak gray, cedar rot, and metal rust. So when high-density polyethylene plastic lumber emerged as a material that could genuinely outlast every alternative, we built our entire manufacturing operation around it. We’ve been doing it for nearly 40 years.
What We Make
All Carolina Casual furniture is handcrafted from 95% post-consumer recycled HDPE plastic lumber — made from recycled milk jugs and laundry detergent bottles. Our plastic lumber never splinters, never needs painting, never rots, and never rusts. It handles everything the Outer Banks throws at it. It’ll handle everything your backyard, patio, or vacation rental throws at it, too.
Why Buy Direct From Us
We are the factory. We design, cut, build, and ship every piece ourselves from our Jarvisburg, NC facility. No distributors. No dealers. No middlemen. When you order from CarolinaCasual.com, you’re ordering from the manufacturer — factory-direct pricing, full customization in 30+ colors, and a direct line to the people who made your furniture.
Our Collections
We offer four core collections: the Curved Collection, Traditional Collection, Deep Seating Collection, and Waterview Collection. Every piece is available in over 30 frame colors with marine-grade stainless steel hardware.
