CARE INSTRUCTIONS
Outdoor maintenance of teak and suar wood
NATURAL MATERIALS DESIGNED TO LAST
Teak and suar are naturally durable tropical woods, particularly well-suited to outdoor furniture and coastal environments.
Exposed to the sun, sea air, rain and intensive use, these woods naturally change over the seasons. Their colour may gradually weather or lose some of its lustre, without affecting their qualities.
As with all natural wood outdoor furniture, regular maintenance simply helps preserve its appearance, colour and original finish for longer.
01 — MAINTENANCE
Preserving the wood finish
Depending on exposure and weather conditions, the color of woods such as teak and suar may change over time.
When the wood begins to look drier or its color becomes more matte, our craftsmen recommend applying a new coat of suitable finish, preferably water-based.
In environments with high exposure to sun and weather, this maintenance can be carried out about once a year, or simply when the appearance of the wood requires it.
The goal is not to transform the wood, but to revive its color and preserve its natural finish.
02 — LIVING OUTDOORS
Woods that blend naturally into the coastal environment
Teak and suar are particularly prized for their natural outdoor durability. Properly dried and prepared, they are perfectly suited to coastal environments and daily outdoor use.
Exposed to the sun, salt air, and the elements, these woods change naturally with the seasons. Their colour may gradually weather, revealing new nuances without altering the character of the material.
The grain, colour variations, and slight irregularities bear witness to the authenticity of solid wood. Thus, each piece evolves in its own way and retains a unique character.
03 — PROTECT
A few simple steps to take out of season
Outside of the summer season or during periods of prolonged non-use, we recommend protecting your teak or suar furniture to limit its prolonged exposure to cold, moisture, and the elements.
Ideally, store your furniture in a dry, sheltered place. If you leave it outdoors, we recommend using a suitable, breathable protective cover.
These simple precautions help preserve the wood's finish for longer, allowing you to enjoy your furniture again in the best possible condition the following season.
