Leominster, MA | Today, AIS announces the launch of its new Outdoor Collection bringing the benefits of outdoor spaces into daily work. Featuring five curated product lines, these versatile pieces also complement indoor settings and be used in third spaces. Thoughtfully curated, each line balances form and function, enhancing the way people work while prioritizing employee well-being.
“AIS is excited to bring the Outdoor Collection to our dealers and designers to extend offerings to customers both inside and outside of the building with furniture that inspires and supports workplace teams. These unique lines support current work trends of bringing nature and wellness into employees’ daily work experiences,” said Nick Haritos, CEO and president. “This introduction is another example of our commitment to our dealers to expand their markets and provide relevant solutions with their customers.”
Beautiful, extensive, and durable, the Outdoor Collection is designed to enhance dining experiences, meeting areas, and relaxation spaces. With its diverse breadth and inspiring designs, the Outdoor Collection includes five exclusive lines: Cascade™ Series, Seaboard™ Series, Mesa™ Stacking Chair, Bryce™ Outdoor Wire Lounge, and Delago™ Tables. Each line is thoughtfully named to reflect nature, outdoor spaces, or parks.
“Seamlessly integrating into both outdoor and indoor environments, the AIS Collection redefines the Third Space with solutions that support the evolution of work, to promote healthier and more productive workspaces. Each outdoor line balances form and function to enhance creativity, collaboration, and employee well-being,” said Megan Knust, senior materials and applications manager.
The Outdoor Collection showcases thoughtful design details, from the Cascades Series’ signature tubular leg and slotted surfaces for wind pass-through and water runoff to the slightly angled seats of Bryce and Mesa, which enhance comfort while allowing for proper drainage. Seaboard offers a modern twist on a classic Adirondak featuring High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) slats supported by a sleek wire frame. Every piece in the collection is powder-coated with marine-grade paint and constructed with weather-resistant, heavy-duty materials to withstand any climate. Designed for durability and adaptability, the AIS Outdoor Collection ensures lasting performance in any environment.
The collection’s beautifully orchestrated finishes include eight paint colors and six high density polyethylene options. Choose from soothing neutrals mimicking nature or pops of color that coordinate effortlessly with AIS Lounge Collection and integrate with AIS’ product portfolio.

The Cascade Series combines an approachable design with lasting durability.
