Unmatched Weather Resilience and Longevity for Outdoor Garden Furniture
The truth about fading, cracking, and moisture damage: UV- protected polyethylene rattan is, unlike wood, not subjected to rotting, warping, or splintering
In addition to being inexpensive and lightweight, unprotected rattan polyethylene is UV protected in addition to being inexpensive and lightweight, UV protected polyethylene rattan is shell-proof. It is not porous, and therefore will not swell, rot, or develop splinters. It is not subject to mildew, mold, or structural deterioration. Unlike other materials, wood breaks down, thickens, and becomes brittle. Unlike other materials, wood breaks down and becomes thick, brittle, and cracked. Rattan breaks down and becomes thick, brittle, and cracked. Rattan will not rot, swell, or develop splinters. It also won't produce thick, brittle, and cracked. Unprotected rattan is weather, mold, and mildew resistant. It is also lightweight and inexpensive. Unprotected rattan is porous, so it will not produce weather resistant mold. Weather resistant rattan is not only lightweight and inexpensive, but also is not subjected to moisture. It is also lightweight, inexpensive, unprotected, and is resistant to water. Weather resistant rattan is not subject to moisture. Weather resistant rattan has special additives that prevent moisture breakdown. These additives prevent breakdown, so rattan maintains its appearance. These additives also ensure rattan will not fatigue or become brittle, even in direct sunlight. Rattan also has free circulation, which is why it weaves. Free circulation is vital to the success of every design. Unprotected rattan will not trap moisture. It will also not trap moisture in its design, which will be unprotected. Free circulation is essential to the flow of the rattan. It is the basis for every untrapped moisture design. It will also not trap moisture. Free circulation is the basis for every design. Unprotected rattan is also essential to the success of every unprotected moisture design. This is especially vital in coastal regions exposed to salt air or in other regions that experience consistently high humidity.
Comparing real life expectancy: premium rattan garden sets are 7-10 years vs untreated hardwood 3-5 years in humid or coastal zones.
Exposed wood does not withstand extreme environments like coastal areas which have high humidiy and salty air. In these conditions, most untreated hardwood will begin to rot in 3 to 5 years. In contrast, UV treated premium PE rattan will last significantly longer. For 7 to 10 years, the material will maintain its structural integrity, color, and tactile quality. This is due to the fact that UV rattan is able to withstand the three most common problem that plague wood. The sun, fluctuating temperatures, and moisture. These conditions do not have ongoing maintenance when using this kind of rattan.
Design Versatility and Aesthetic Harmony with Modern Interiors
Gentle curves in rattan, earthy palettes, and a natural touch that connect inside and outside
Rattan's unique ability to flex and contour into interesting shapes sets it apart from other materials and helps it to achieve a desired style that complements many decor themes. Wood frames are rigid, and make no attempt to create interesting spatial arrangements in their surroundings. Indoor and outdoor living design are blended because rattan's versatility allows designers to close the gap in functionality and aesthetics that defines the current design trend.
More personalization on garden sets means more configuration options, interchangeable cushions, and different colored frames.
What enables the versatility of rattan? The answer is simple: modularity. The sectional pieces transform from a small l-shape perfect for tight balcony spaces to a big u-shape for hosting. The cushions are removable and the covers are easy to replace. With more than 30 colors to choose from, homeowners can change the look of their outdoor area and sell their furniture. The powder coated aluminum frames come in 3 main colors: matte black, graphite gray, and a warm bronze tone. These finishes are great for different home styles. A matte black frame will look great against the walls of an industrial loft, and the bronze accents will look great against the wood of a beachside cottage. With all this flexibility, rattan furniture will fit into more spaces and will adapt to the different lifestyles of fast-paced homes.
Lightweight Design & Managing Easier Maintenance
40-60% Less Weight Compared to Teak/Eucalyptus Garden Sets Making Seasonal Moves & Balcony Use More Manageable
Rattan garden sets are 40-60% lighter than wood sets of the same size made from teak or eucalyptus. Because of this, rattan sets are much easier to reposition seasonally, rearrange on balconies, and store away during the winter months. The reduced weight is also a big plus for people who live on upper floors or have small city terraces as many city buildings have weight restrictions on what materials can be used. The great news is lighter materials do not compromise stability. Most rattan garden furniture is supported with robust aluminum frames and the woven plastic PE strands are really well made. This means that light weight sets not only shape and strength, but also stability to outlast the wooden garden furniture.
Wipe-Clean Surfaces vs. Annual Oiling, Sanding, and Sealing Required for Wooden Garden Sets
In terms of maintenance requirements, these two materials are almost opposites. All Rattan needs is a wipe down with a cloth and a bit of soapy water. No sanding, oiling, or sealing required. On the other hand, bare timber requires more maintenance than is practically possible. Otherwise the wood risks going gray or developing cracks and mold. Once maintenance is skipped, wood starts to deteriorate more quickly. This is not an issue with PE rattan, as it's surface is stain and moisture resistant. This means you spend about 30 hours less cleaning during the course of a year. That’s 30 hours you can spend enjoying your outdoor space! It’s a big deal for people with busy lives and little time to spend on chores.
