Here at Birchgrove we stock a wide range of rattan weave garden furniture from Supremo®.
This range has been a popular choice for many years, not only because of its style but because it is low maintenance. It only takes a couple of minutes to clean and care for weave furniture compared to other outdoor materials.
Here is a rundown of those tips and methods that we advise to care for your Supremo® furniture:
Understanding Your Supremo® Weave Furniture
Supremo® weave furniture is lightweight, sturdy, and durable furniture manufactured from high-quality HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene) and hand-woven onto rust-proof aluminium frames to impart strength and style to the furniture.
Highly functional and sturdy weave outdoor furniture can last for many years; if you follow the basic cleaning process. You can leave your rattan garden furniture outdoors for the winter months and throughout spring, however, Supremo recommends covering your furniture with one of Supremo’s breathable, water-resistant outdoor covers for longevity.
Supremo® offers a 5-year warranty for additional peace of mind (please ask for a copy of the Supremo Ltd Warranty for further information).
How to Clean Rattan Garden furniture?
Regular cleaning is important as it keeps away the chances of any infestation or damage to the furniture. Not cleaning it properly can harbor mold and bacteria growth, both of which can lessen the life span of the furniture and cause issues with the framework.
Here are some basic cleaning steps for your Supremo® Outdoor Weave Furniture
1. Make use of a soft brush to clean out any dust, or debris (food particles) you might find on the furniture piece. Ensure the bristles of the brush are soft and not abrasive as it would damage the furniture.
2. A pair of tweezers could work well when you want to get rid of dirt from harder-to-reach places like crevices or in between the weaves. Take care when using tweezers, to not damage or catch the weave as this may break or snap the weave.
3. Supremo® furniture can be washed with warm soapy water, and rinse thoroughly with clean water to remove any residue. NEVER use a pressure washer to clean your furniture, as this could damage the weave.
4. Once a month, wipe your Supremo® garden furniture with a soft damp cloth or warm soapy water.
5. After you are done washing the furniture, leave them to dry in a well-ventilated area.
6. A suitable glass cleaner and soft cloth can be used to buff the glass.
7. Cushions are hand-wash only and are zipped for easy removal. Any spillages should be removed with a damp cloth. Please refer to the care label for instructions. To keep your cushions looking pristine, we recommend storing them away when not in use. NEVER machine wash or tumble dry the covers.
8. Although it is not essential, to prolong the life of the furniture, store it away during the winter months. We have a range of Supremo® covers that can be used which have been specifically designed to keep the elements away and allow air to circulate through a Supremo® breathable vent system.
