Care of your suar wood outdoor furniture

How can I best maintain my suar wood terrace furniture?

Suar wood is a tropical hardwood known for its warm appearance, distinctive grain patterns, and natural color variations. Each piece of suar furniture is unique, featuring characteristic markings that create an exclusive and natural atmosphere on any hospitality terrace. The wood is naturally strong and durable, but as a living material, it requires proper care to prevent graying, drying, and cracking. With proper maintenance, suar remains beautiful, robust, and weather-resistant for many years.

Before use: proper preparation

What can I use to treat my suar wood terrace furniture?

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

Step-by-step plan for initial treatment

  1. Preparation
    Clean the surface beforehand with a dry cloth to remove dust or any production residues.

  2. Treatment
    Before using your suar wood terrace furniture, it is important to treat the wood with a protective oil or sealer suitable for outdoor use. This treatment nourishes the wood, makes it more resistant to moisture, and slows down the natural greying process. Also, check all joints and screws to ensure the furniture is stable before arranging it on the terrace.

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

Step-by-step maintenance plan in use

  1. Weekly cleaning: Clean the surface weekly using a soft brush or cloth with a mild solution of lukewarm water and gentle soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners and high-pressure washing, as these can strip the natural oils from the wood.

  2. Rinsing and drying: Rinse the furniture with clean water and dry it thoroughly.

  3. Aftercare: To prevent drying out, it is advisable to treat the wood two to three times a year with a suitable outdoor oil. This helps prevent cracking and preserves the warm colour of the wood.

  4. Stain removal: Blot any spills immediately with a clean cloth and clean the area with a lightly damp cloth and mild soap. For stubborn stains, lightly sand the surface with fine-grit sandpaper (always following the wood grain) and then reapply oil. Avoid aggressive cleaners and chlorine-based products, as these can damage the wood.

Large maintenance and deep cleaning - After intensive use

How can I make my suar wood terrace furniture look like new again?

After a busy terrace season or prolonged use, a thorough cleaning is recommended.

Step-by-step plan for large maintenance

  1. Clean the surface with a soft brush and warm water mixed with a mild wood cleaner.

  2. Allow the wood to dry thoroughly in the shade.

  3. Lightly sand the surface to even out any weathered spots.

  4. Then treat the wood with an exterior oil or a UV-protective wood sealer to restore colour and shine.

  5. Finally, check all joints and treat any metal parts with a protective coating to prevent rust.

To keep suar wood terrace furniture looking its best for as long as possible, regular maintenance is essential. Ideally, place the furniture in a sheltered location and use protective covers during bad weather or in winter to shield the wood from excessive moisture and temperature fluctuations. Clean the wood regularly, treat it periodically with oil, and remove dirt or bird droppings immediately. With this care, suar retains its rich colour, natural sheen, and distinctive character, making it a durable and stylish choice for any hospitality terrace.
