FURNITURE CARE
Please read carefully!
Dear Customer,
Thank you for buying our high-quality furniture. We would like to give you some information to help care for your furniture which should give you many years of pleasure.
Before assembly, please read the following instructions carefully as any damage resulting from incorrect assembly is not covered by our warrantee.
Assembly instructions for all teak furniture
Please follow our instructions to avoid any damage to the teak wood. Especially when hammering in the wooden dowels, damage to the wood can easily occur. To avoid this, please follow the instructions below:
- When assembling teak furniture, make sure the right pairs of individual parts (A=A, B=B, 1=1, 2=2, etc.) are fitted together.
- Place the sharpened dowels in the provided holes by hand.
- Carefully knock each dowel in with a hammer and make sure that it remains slightly proud.
- Remove the rest of the dowel protruding with some fine sandpaper.
- The rails of sliding-leaf tables with metal fittings should cleaned and oiled at regular intervals (approx. every 4 weeks).
Assembly instructions for all stainless steel tables
- To prevent cross-threading the bolts when assembling stainless steel tables, please grease about 1 cm of the threaded end of each bolt.
- Thread each bolt 3-4 turns into the recessed threads in the table legs by hand.
- Now you can further tighten the bolts with a spanner.
- The rails of sliding-leaf tables with metal fittings should cleaned and oiled at regular intervals (approx. every 4 weeks).
Properties of wood
Wood is a product of nature, easy to work with and due to its natural oils
very weather-resistant and durable. It is a high-quality, natural material
that is subjected to constant change. New products have a wood moisture
content of 12% ± 2% which can cause irregularities like cracks, warping and
deforming of the material during summertime and also indoors.
Those irregularities don`t affect the strength or longevity of the products
and are no causes for complaint, a warranty claim or quality concerns about
the product. Variant sources resulting in colour diffences blend in more and
more over time.
Characteristics of teak wood
Over time teak furniture develop the so-called silver-grey “patina”. Black marks due to tiny particles of dirt and humidity can occur on the surface of the wood. These marks can be prevented or easily removed by thorough regular cleaning with a brush and a mild soap solution. These marks and the so called “patina” are no causes for complaint, a warranty claim or quality concerns about the product. Stubborn stains can be carefully removed with fine sand paper (200 grain size). Any residues from sanding must be removed before the teak wood is further treated, otherwise black stains could occur. If you wish to preserve the honey-coloured hue of your teak furniture, it is recommended to rub in some teak oil with a soft cloth. Before using teak oil, the furniture must be thoroughly cleaned as described above and allowed to dry completely.
Characteristics of antique teak wood
Antique teak is made from recycled teak – matured wood with strength and quality. Furniture made from antique teak are unique and almost solely derive their charm from little holes, cracks, joints and other irregularities. These irregularities are typical and are no causes for complaint, a warranty claim or quality concerns about the product.
Instructions for care of all types of wood
The right way to care for your furniture depends on the type of wood and how it has been treated in the past. Please consider that a piece of furniture made of natural wood should always be treated with the same product. If it has already been treated with oil prior to your purchasing the product, then you should only use oil in the future, too.
If your piece of furniture made out of teak wood already patinates or have gotten dirty it is especially important to clean the wood before treating it with oil.
Cleaning
Please do not clean your garden furniture with a high pressure washer, as the water pressure can damage the surface.
Please clean your garden furniture as follows:
- Please just use a brush and a mild soap solution.
- This should then be rinsed with clean water and left to dry. Afterwards, you can sand your furniture with 200 grade sand paper, if necessary.
- Finally, you can oil your furniture to restore the desired colour tone of the wood.
In the case of more intensive treatment, you may wish to oil the wood two or three times. Here it is important that you oil your furniture using the “wet in wet” procedure. This means the oils should soak into the wood but should not be allowed to dry out before you repeat the oiling process. Otherwise, particles of dirt from the air can contaminate the surface and cause discolouring.
Cleaning stainless steel furniture
Regularly clean your stainless steel furniture with warm water and some
washing-up liquid. Afterwards thoroughly rinse with clean water. After
cleaning, dry your furniture with a soft cloth.
Avoid using any cleaning products that contain abrasive materials, since these
can cause scratches in the surface of the furniture. Other products which are
not suitable for cleaning stainless steel include cleaning products for
chrome, silver and brass, furniture polish.
Storage
Cushions and covers should be removed and stored in a dry place.
