Our outdoor range is designed for comfort and durability. Following the right care makes a significant difference to how long it lasts.

• Fabric exposed directly to UV will fade and weaken faster — outdoor products are best not left out permanently.
• Cushions exposed to rain without the chance to dry will develop mould and mildew. Air-dry damp cushions regularly and move them out of heavy rain.

• Remove outdoor furniture from direct sunlight when not in use — the Australian sun causes deterioration.
• Oil regularly so it does not dry out and crack. Apply fine, light, silicone-free furniture oil in the direction of the grain. Never use a polish containing silicone.
• Timber in humid areas is prone to mould and mildew — wipe regularly, and wax to help protect it.
• Untreated teak left outdoors will silver over time as part of natural weathering.

• Never place patio product where it is exposed to rain, hail, sun, tree and plant sap, or animal droppings.
• Timber expands and contracts with changing temperature, which can cause minor cracks or distortion over time. This is not a fault.
• Keep pets away — accidental damage is common, especially to fabric and rattan or wicker.

• Dust or vacuum weekly with an upholstery brush so dirt does not build up in the weave.
• Clean food, drink, animal droppings or any foreign substance immediately.
• At least every 12 months, inspect for mould, mildew and splits in the fibres, and recondition as needed.

Our warranty on patio furniture is limited to manufacturer faults. It does not cover wear and tear or damage that could have been caused by:

• Exposure to sun or light
• Exposure to rain, hail or other weather events
• Exposure to natural substances such as tree sap, pollen or animal droppings
• Exposure to chemicals used in outdoor gardens or patios
• Damage caused by pets or other animals
