Synthetic rattan

Outdoor furniture made of synthetic rattan is easy to care for and doesn't need much maintenance to last and look good for several seasons. But, just like outdoor furniture in other materials, it will look and feel even better if it is cleaned regularly, and especially when it is taken out for the season.
 

Clean with a damp cloth and Brafab's plastic cleaner or a mild detergent (e.g. washing-up liquid). Avoid using a high-pressure cleaner or too hard a brush as this will damage the surface of the plastic fibres.
 

Synthetic rattan is a very durable material but be careful not to place them in an unventilated conservatory as excessive temperatures or large temperature fluctuations can dry out the synthetic rattan and cause it to crack. Rattan can withstand cold weather, but we recommend storing them under a furniture cover or preferably indoors during the colder months of the year.
 

Also keep in mind that prolonged and strong sunlight can fade the rattan and also the fabric of cushions (if the furniture has it) which can be avoided by covering with a furniture cover or standing under a roof.
 

At the beginning of a new season, check all screws and tighten them if necessary.
