Care of your suar wood hospitality furniture

Before using your suar wood furniture, it is advisable to treat it beforehand.

Step-by-step plan for initial treatment

1. Proper treatment
   Before using your suar wood furniture, it is recommended to treat the wood with a clear furniture oil or wax. This protects the surface against stains, dirt, and drying out, while also enhancing the natural colour of the wood.

2. Wipe the furniture
   Clean the furniture beforehand with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust or production residues. Also check the joints, legs, and any metal components to ensure everything is securely and stably assembled.

To keep your suar wood hospitality furniture in top condition, regular maintenance is essential.

Step-by-step maintenance plan in use

1. Weekly dusting: Dust the surface weekly with a soft cloth or duster, and remove spills immediately to prevent them from soaking in.

2. Rinse and dry: Clean the furniture with a lightly damp cloth and a mild soap solution, then dry thoroughly with a soft cotton cloth. Avoid harsh cleaning products and excessive water, as these can dry out the wood or damage the finish.

3. Best practice: Do not place suar furniture directly next to heat sources or in direct sunlight to prevent warping or discoloration.

4. Stain removal: Suar wood is fairly stain-resistant, but prompt cleaning is essential. Blot spills immediately with a clean, dry cloth. For light stains, use a mixture of mild soap and lukewarm water. For stubborn stains or rings, lightly sand the area with fine-grit sandpaper (always following the grain) and then reapply oil or wax. Never use abrasive cleaners or chemicals, as these can damage the surface.

After a busy season or or when the wood appears dull, a deep cleaning is recommended:

Step-by-step plan for large maintenance

1. Clean the surface with a mild wood cleaner or a solution of lukewarm water and gentle soap.

2. Allow the furniture to dry completely.

3. Lightly sand the surface with fine-grit sandpaper to remove any unevenness or signs of wear.

4. Apply a fresh coat of furniture oil or wax to restore the natural sheen and nourish the wood.

5. Finally, check all joints and connections, tightening them if necessary.

To keep your suar wood hospitality furniture looking its best for as long as possible, regular maintenance and a stable environment are essential. Maintain indoor humidity levels between 45–60% to prevent cracking. Never place hot pans, cups, or wet glasses directly on the wood—always use coasters. Clean the surfaces regularly and periodically treat them with oil or wax to preserve the warm colour and natural sheen. Avoid direct sunlight, excessive heat, and extreme dryness. With this care, your suar furniture will remain a striking, durable, characterful, and stylish feature in your hospitality venue for many years.
