HOW TO CLEAN OUTDOOR FURNITURE

Our collections are expertly crafted by artisans using sustainably harvested wood, ensuring compliance with strict regulations for legal and responsible trade. Designed to withstand various weather conditions, our furniture is durable, but proper care is essential to maintain its beauty over time. Follow our cleaning and maintenance guide to keep your pieces in top condition.

GENERAL OUTDOOR CARE

  • Regular cleaning is important to keep your pieces looking their best.
  • We strongly recommend using furniture covers or moving into covered storage when items are not in use during heavy rain, winter, and other periods of inclement weather.
  • Furniture, and cushions should be clean and dry before covering or storing.
  • Wet cushions should be removed from the frame and air dried to prevent mold and mildew.
  • Do not store furniture in areas that have central heating or cooling vents to prevent excessive drying of the wood. This will decrease the furniture's longevity.
  • Avoid letting liquids stand on the surface of furniture and cushions.
  • Do not put hot items directly on furniture surface.
  • Do not write on furniture without a padded barrier to protect the surface.
  • Do not leave your furniture in puddles of water or on wet ground.

UNFINISHNATURAL / FINELY SANDED TEAK

CHARACTERISTIC

  • Unique Grain and Color Variation: Each piece of teak may exhibit distinct graining and color differences due to the natural characteristics of the wood, including small splits, knots, and joint lines, all of which contribute to the piece's character without affecting its quality.
  • Silver-Gray Patina and Maintenance: Over time, natural teak develops a silver-gray patina as it weathers. For those who prefer to maintain the original warm honey brown color, teak sealer or oil can be applied.
  • Climate-Driven Changes:
    Teak naturally expands and contracts with climate shifts, potentially causing hairline cracks in joints or the grain, though this doesn’t affect structural integrity. While mildew may form on the surface, it doesn’t impact the wood's durability and can be easily cleaned.

Care and maintenance

  • soap
  • water
  • soft bristle brush
  • fine sandpaper
  • towel
  • You can clean your teak furniture using warm water and mild dish soap. Gently scrub teak surfaces in the same direction as their grain. Rinse thoroughly with water. Pat dry with a towel and allow any remaining moisture to air-dry.
  • You may also use a mixture of a cup of chlorine bleach, a cup of laundry detergent and a gallon of water to clean your teak pieces. Apply using a non-metallic, soft-bristle brush. Allow to sit on the furniture for approximately 5-10 minutes, or longer for more stubborn stains. Thoroughly rinse the cleaning solution with clean water (spray it with a garden hose).
  • Always begin with a mild - or more diluted - cleaning solution. If that does not work, try a stronger concentration or a store-bought teak cleaner.
  • To remove remaining stains, lightly sand the affected areas with fine 120-grit sandpaper until the stain disappears.

WEATHERTEAK FINISH

CARE

  • soap
  • water
  • pons

MAINTENANCE

  • Regular Cleaning: Use a soft cloth or sponge with mild soapy water to remove dust and dirt. Avoid harsh chemicals that may damage the finish.
  • Use Furniture Covers: When not in use for extended periods, especially during extreme weather or rainy seasons, cover the furniture with a protective cover to slow the weathering
    process.
  • Avoid Standing Water: Ensure the furniture is not exposed to prolonged standing water to prevent excess moisture, which can accelerate wear and mold growth.
  • Periodic Maintenance: If the weathered finish starts to fade, reapply a water-based touch-up paint suitable for teak to maintain its beautiful and well-kept appearance.

FABRIC / CUSHION COVER

CARE

  • mild detergen
  • water

MAINTENANCE

  • Regular Dusting and Dirt Removal: Periodically dust off your cushions and fabric surfaces to prevent dirt buildup. A gentle brush or vacuum with an upholstery attachment works well for this.
  • Immediate Spill Wiping: Quickly
    wipe up spills as soon as they happen to prevent stains from setting in. Use a clean cloth or paper towel to blot the area, not rub it.
  • Spot Cleaning Stains: For stubborn stains, spot clean promptly with a mild detergent or fabric cleaner. Test in a small, inconspicuous area first to ensure fabric compatibility.
  • Wash Removable Cushion Covers: If
    your cushion covers are removable, machine wash them in cold water with mild laundry soap. Always air dry them to maintain their shape and quality.
  • Proper Storage: After washing or use, ensure cushion covers are properly air-dried to keep them dry and maintain their shape.

SYNTHETIC RATTAN, WOVEN POLYROPE,& TEXTILENE

CHARACTERISTIC

  • Synthetic Rattan: Made from plastic or synthetic fibers, it offers a natural look similar to traditional rattan but is more durable and easier to maintain.

MAINTENANCE

  • Regular Dusting: Use a soft, dry cloth to dust off dirt and debris from the surface of your furniture.
  • Remove Stubborn Dirt: For stuck dirt, use a soft-bristle brush that is non-metallic to gently scrub the surface.
  • Spot Cleaning: For light cleaning, spray the surface with a hose to remove debris, then dry it off with a soft cloth.
  • Deep Cleaning: Mix mild soap with water and use a non-metallic soft-bristle brush to clean any stains or dirt buildup.
