About Thomas Steele

For more than a decade, Thomas Steele craftsmen have been creating site furnishings that stand out for their stylish designs, broad palettes of color, and exceptional handcrafted quality. Now we have taken that expertise and expanded our offerings into six complete families of furnishing lines. Each family includes benches, tables, trash and ash receptacles, and planters. Our distinctive designs are shaped, welded, assembled, and finished not along an assembly line, but one at a time by our skilled craftsmen. For anyone seeking functional, beautiful, and long-lasting site furnishings…choose Thomas Steele – site furnishings designed and handcrafted for a lifetime.


At Thomas Steele, we don’t just manufacture benches and trash receptacles and bike racks. We create environments for people at work and at play – environments that are functional, durable and striking in appearance. And your investment in Thomas Steele will perform beautifully year after year, even in the toughest of environments.

Customers today demand higher quality and durability from the products they buy. Not only do they expect these products to perform well, but they want the finish to look good and resist corrosion for a much longer period of time. The 18 stage e-Steele™ finishing process offered by Thomas Steele is designed to do just that. The end result is a smooth, durable finish which allows site furnishings to look great and withstand high levels of corrosion from salt, chemicals, humidity, scratching, and impact, far surpassing conventional paint top coats.

At Thomas Steele, we undercoat our site furnishings using a state of the art e-coating with an epoxy resin water based paint for a process that produces a highly durable coating. When coupled with our electrostatically applied polyester topcoat, e-Steele™ will withstand a highly corrosive environment for the ultimate levels of protection and performance. This is why Thomas Steele can offer an unsurpassed industry-leading five year warranty.
