As far as natural sources are concerned, rattan is one of the safest from an environmental point of view. Although palm trees kind of limited materials, the rattan itself is easily renewed, and the impact of the source to the environment is almost no negative.
Actually, instead of damaging the environment, rattan can be considered to have the opposite effect insofar as it is used as a substitute for wood in many furniture items
This, in turn, helps preserve forests by reducing the need of timber, preventing deforestation and logging. In addition, these plants are often found on floodplains, which attract animal populations and utilize land that should not be used.
Natural rattan furniture will definitely fade if exposed to sunlight. Therefore, this type of furniture is preferred for indoors. Indoor Rattan furniture is a fantastic choice for items that are comfortable, stylish and long-lasting. But even though it is placed indoors, you still have to pay attention to the maintenance to keep it good and durable. The best place to store your rattan furniture is dry, ice-free space. Constant air flow will prevent unwanted mold from growing in your furniture. If you store furniture for the winter, immediately prepare a set or vacuum cleaner before storing it. This will eliminate unwanted bugs or fungi and prevent damage that occurs in storage.
Place the rubber pad under the rattan foot. These rubber pads will help keep the material from cracking or breaking.
Clean the surface regularly. Monthly or even weekly cleaning is the best way to protect your rattan furniture and prevent major damage. Clean with little dishwashing detergent diluted in water. Use a soft cloth and then wipe the surface of the furniture without making wet wood. Be sure to clean the furniture gap with a toothbrush or other small brush.
