Sometimes we hear people moan that good wicker furniture is expensive. While this is true, you should ask yourself one thing; did you know that each piece synthetic resin wicker is hand-woven? Changes your whole perspective right? It takes 10 days to create one quality sofa!!! Quality furniture is usually woven from thin synthetic rods or half-rods - it is an intricate handwork. Quality material for manufacturing - more than 20 times more expensive than cheap polyethylene. An aluminum frame, well-made and painted, is much more expensive than iron frames or poorly welded structures.

Wicker furniture has become a hot trend in both outdoor relaxation zones and interior design, and its popularity continues to soar. Known for its elegance, durability, and wear resistance, wicker furniture is perfect for homes, summer houses, and hospitality establishments. There are several compelling reasons for this trend, which we will explore below.

10 Key Benefits of Synthetic Rattan Woven Furniture While natural rattan furniture is known for its elegance and strength, synthetic rattan offers additional benefits:

1. Easy Maintenance: Wicker furniture doesn't absorb stains and can be easily wiped clean with a damp cloth. Synthetic rattan can also be cleaned with a soap solution, and for debris stuck in the weaves, a soft toothbrush or brush can be used. However, abrasives and chemicals should be avoided.

2. Durability: We use only premium materials and develop our own formulas to make the tape. That's why we offer a 6 year warranty on the weave and material (tape). Surprisingly robust, synthetic rattan furniture withstands constant use, maintaining its appearance over the years with minimal maintenance. There’s cheap plastic and materials like High Density Polyethylene (HDPE), EnviroFiber, and Ecolene, and Rehau. The higher quality sets won’t fade, chip, crack, or peel. That’s the difference. Polyethylene is not HDPE. HDPE is a hardened polyethylene that is more resistant to scratching. O clarify, wicker is not a material; type of product . Cheap brands use leftover strands to weave their sets. This is why the wicker starts to unravel. Quality sets use minimal strands to keep their entire set together as one piece. End strands are also wrapped around the frame several times and stapled to the frame to prevent them from unraveling. Also, all of our frames are one-piece. They are not prefabricated and are of high quality. Coated with paint for better weather resistance. The frames are made exclusively of aluminum with a minimum thickness of 1.5 mm. That is why we offer a 10-year warranty on frame and structure. 

1. Weather Resistance: Wicker furniture is a popular choice for summer terraces and relaxation areas, thanks to its resilience to weather conditions. It can withstand direct sunlight, wind, salty air, rain, and even snow, withstanding heat and frost. Only extremely strong winds pose a threat due to the furniture’s relative lightness.

2. Corrosion Resistance: Wicker is immune to corrosion, and the metal frames of woven furniture are made of corrosion-resistant aluminum.

3. UV Resistance: Wicker furniture withstands the effects of direct sunlight, making it an ideal choice for beachside relaxation areas, poolside, and summer terraces.

4. Lightweight: As outdoor furniture is often moved or brought indoors, the lightness of rattan furniture is a significant advantage. It should be lifted and carried rather than dragged.

5. Affordable Cost: Although not the cheapest, synthetic rattan furniture is more affordable and durable than alternatives. Really high quality wooden and metal furniture not only costs more but also requires more complex maintenance and doesn’t last as long outdoors.

6. Versatility: Synthetic woven furniture suits both outdoor areas and interior spaces. Woven dressers, daybeds, or cocoon chairs can be stunning additions to a room.

7. Variety of Colors and Styles: One of the main advantages of modern woven furniture is the vast array of available shades and designs, allowing everyone to find the perfect set to complement their relaxation area and create the desired ambiance.

8. Uniqueness: By choosing a manufacturer like TERICO, which specializes in synthetic rattan furniture, you can order custom-designed woven pieces and decorate your space with truly unique furniture items.

Considering all these advantages, synthetic rattan furniture becomes an obvious choice for summer platforms and relaxation areas, as well as a great option for cozy home spaces. Beautiful, elegant, durable, and easy to maintain, it promises to delight you and your guests for years to come.
