The entire EUREKA Woodworks, Inc.
outdoor furniture line utilizes the
highest quality Western red cedar.
Our supplier of Western red cedar
has been in the lumber business for
over 25 years. Each board is cured
according to exact specifications.
Slow and controlled drying prevents
cracking or warping that can occur
by drying too quickly.
The EUREKA logo chair production
process includes several steps:
1. Logo Design
EUREKA, as an officially licensed
supplier/manufacturer of logo
merchandise, has access to selected
college and university artwork. The
EUREKA designer utilizes the
official logos, marks and colors of
the schools to create a prototype of
the chair design. Chair designs can
feature a combination of color
engraving and logo inlays. The
design prototype is then submitted
to the school, via a licensing
agency, for approval. Once approval
is received, tool paths are
generated and production begins.
2. Board Selection
Only the best, clearest pieces (no
knots or wane) of Western red cedar
are used for logo boards. These
boards are carefully air dried to
16% moisture content. Once selected,
every board is cut and shaped to
size and then sanded to an exact
thickness utilizing a 36”, 20 HP
wide belt sanding system ensuring
high quality for the engraving
process.
3. Engraving
One-color logos and wordmarks are
engraved utilizing computer
generated tool paths and robotics on
the EUREKA CNC machine. The engraved
board is then sent out for painting
which includes an exterior primer
coat and two exterior enamel coats
of the official school color.
Computer generated tool paths and
robotics are used to engrave boards
with inlay cut outs for complex,
multicolor logos.
4. Inlays
Inlays allow EUREKA to produce
multicolor logos in exact detail.
Each inlay is printed on exterior
sign material utilizing outdoor sign
ink followed by a UV coating. This
added UV protection ensures
fade-resistance of the inlay colors.
The printed inlays are then glued
into the engraved boards utilizing
state-of-the-art glue system from
3M™ especially formulated for
exterior applications.
This entire process involves
numerous, time consuming steps but
the results are worth it: logo
furniture that is handsome,
comfortable, and built to provide
years of outdoor seating enjoyment.
