Wooden Furniture Care Guide

Understand the Nature of Wood:
Our wooden furniture, including the Bali, Martinique, and Porto collections, features a light PU coating for added protection. However, wood is a natural material and may develop cracks and splits over time as it expands and contracts. By purchasing this, you are acknowledging and accepting that splitting and cracking are natural characteristics of wood and are not covered under the warranty. These natural occurrences do not affect the structural integrity or durability of the furniture.

Regular Cleaning:
Keep your wooden furniture clean by wiping it regularly with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. For deeper cleaning or added protection, you may use a suitable wood-care product designed for outdoor wooden furniture.

Seasonal Maintenance:
To maintain the appearance and longevity of your furniture, treat the wood twice a year using proper wood oils suitable for outdoor wooden furniture. In some cases, you may need to lightly sand the surface before applying the oil to ensure even absorption and the best finish.

Avoid Using Covers:
We do not recommend using covers on our wooden furniture. Covers can trap moisture, leading to mould, warping, and other damage. Using covers will void the warranty, and any damage caused as a result will not be covered. Regular cleaning and proper seasonal maintenance, as outlined above, are the best ways to preserve your furniture.

Natural Colour Changes:
Untreated or naturally finished wood may experience colour changes over time due to exposure to sunlight and varying weather conditions. This natural ageing process adds character and uniqueness to the furniture. With the correct care, including appropriate seasonal oiling, these changes can be minimised.

By following these care guidelines, you can enjoy your wooden furniture for years to come, preserving its beauty and functionality. If you have any further questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out to us. Thank you for choosing our products!

Teak: A Durable Hardwood for Outdoor Use

Teak is a hardwood prized for its natural resistance to weathering, making it ideal for outdoor furniture. Over time, teak gracefully transitions from its original golden-brown hue to a silvery grey as it ages. This natural process occurs as the wood is exposed to the elements and does not indicate neglect or poor care. Instead, it reflects the organic aging of the material. To preserve and maintain your teak furniture, follow our guide for restoration and general upkeep.

Teak Care Product Overview

1. Teak Oil
   • Ideal for use before the wood begins to weather.
   • Helps retain the original "as new" appearance but may darken the wood.
   • Best used sparingly. For ongoing maintenance, switch to the Teak Colour Guard.
2. Teak Cleaner
   • Effectively removes discolouration and restores weathered, grey teak to its original tone.
3. Teak Colour Guard
   • Maintains the golden-brown color of new teak without excessive darkening.
   • A reliable alternative to teak oil for long-term maintenance.
4. Teak Stain Guard
   • Provides an invisible protective barrier to prevent stains from spills, such as red wine, oil, or condiments.
   • Makes cleaning easier and keeps the wood looking pristine.

By understanding these products and their specific uses, you can ensure your teak furniture remains beautiful and durable for years to come.

Rope Weave / Cushion Care Guide

How do I clean my Rope Weave?
Simply use a sponge and soapy warm water to remove any dust and dirt.

Cushion Care: How do I wash my outdoor cushions?
To clean our cushions, we recommend a simple hand wash with warm soapy water and a clean cloth. Our cushions are not machine washable and cannot be tumble dried. We do recommend that these cushions are brought inside and/or stored when not being used.

Care For Your Ceramic Tempered Glass (If applicable)
How can I clean my tempered glass?
Leaving any type of glass outside, you will find it gets dirty and dusty and a mildew can build up from the weather elements changing. You can easily clean the glass with a warm soapy cloth, then use another separate cloth which is damp to polish the finish and allow to dry. 

We supply cleaning kits which we have made to suit cleaning your outdoor glass tables, please look for our Maze - Outdoor Garden Furniture - Glass Cleaner
