Envirostone™ Surface Care
Our Envirostone™ material has been sealed with a patented treatment to prevent staining and moisture absorption, but it does require proper maintenance to ensure the integrity of the surface. Please see below for recommendations on maintaining your Envirostone™ surface for years of pleasure:

• Clean any spills immediately to prevent permanent Envirostone™ surface staining or damage. Blot any liquid spills with a clean, dry cloth to avoid spreading of the spill to the rest of the table. Clean your Envirostone™ surface with a soft, clean cloth or sponge. Mix a solution of warm clean water and mild dish soap to remove any surface dirt or mild spills. Rinse all soap solutions off of the tabletop and dry completely to avoid water spots. Regularly cleaning the Envirostone™ surface will aid in a longer-lasting product.
• Do not use petroleum-based or abrasive cleaning products. Do not use any harsh brushes when cleaning the Envirostone™ surface.
• Do not slide products across the Envirostone™ surface to avoid permanent scratching and damage.
• Always use protective mats such as coasters or placemats when eating on an Envirostone™ surface. These protective products will help absorb sweating on cool beverages and will block out any heat rings from appearing beneath a warm mug or plate. When placing hot dishes on an Envirostone™ surface, always use mats or hot pads.
• Envirostone™’s surface must be covered at all times when not in use. Cover your product with an outdoor furniture cover when not in use to protect it from the elements.  Store your product indoors during the winter months. Avoiding extreme cold temperatures will prevent the cracking of the tabletop.
