If you don't use your cushions for a long period, it is advised to put them away to avoid possible discolour
ation during too long an exposure to UV rays.
3/ Maintenance and ageing, siding
It is normal to note natural wear and tear of the product over time and with use, in the form of an alteration
of the colours and the state of the surface, the mechanical functions and tightening of the screwed elemen
ts.
Tightening
The assembly parts of your product become loose over time. Think of tightening them regularly.
Exposure to UV rays
Over time, you can see a discoloration of the materials exposed to UV rays (textiles, paint, plastics), a phe
nomenon also due to the rays of the sun as well as those of the moon. This evolution of colours exposed t
o external elements is normal and concerns in particular bright colours.
Everyday maintenance
Your product is subject to external elements, it must therefore be regularly cleaned.
Remove stains immediately.
Clean with a damp cloth soaked in warm soapy water (or hot water for more marked dirt) or a specific, ada
pted product.
Rinse thoroughly.
Finish with a clean, dry cloth.
If in doubt, consult a reseller or the material sheet on the Hesperide.com website.
In the absence of regular cleaning your product will imperatively deteriorate.
Cushions care instructions
Wash by hand in warm water. Do not dry-clean, do not use the tumble dryer, do not use the iron. Leave to
dry in the sun before putting the cushions back in place.
Weather conditions (wind, rain, snow, hail, salty winds)
The outdoor furniture is designed to be used in normal outdoor weather conditions. Strong climatic hazard
s or exceptional weather conditions can have repercussions on the look, correct use and lifespan of the pr
oduct. It is strongly advised to use tarpaulin with a ventilation system during the season when the furniture
remains outside.
Rain and humidity
If it is left out in water, the furniture will take several days to dry. Nothing abnormal in that, but ensure that
you wipe it to prevent the water from stagnating on it. The presence of prolonged humidity speeds up the
product ageing and favours the appearance of rust indeed mould.
Temperature conditions
Outdoor acacia furniture is made to bear low temperature conditions, even less winter temperatures, witho
ut them altering its correct operating and its surface condition. You therefore have the choice to store it in a
dry, ventilated and closed place or leave it outside, protected by a tarpaulin with a ventilation system. A p
rotective tarpaulin in fact reduces the impact of external aggressions (damage due to trees, animals, pollut
ion,...) over its lifespan. If the floor is damp, it is advised to insert a wedge between the floor and the feet to
avoid a transfer of humidity. In the event of a table that spends winter outside, giving a slight angle also pr
events water and dead leaves collecting on the tarpaulin. Whatever the solution retained, clean and dry the
products well to prevent the appearance of unpleasant odours and mould.
In the event of prolonged non-use, if the storage and tidying away recommendations are not followed, the r
esult will be an accelerated deterioration to its surface condition and its correct operating.
Maintenance of acacia
It's a natural material that lives and will therefore evolve over time and from exposure to bad weather and
UV rays. You can choose to treat it regularly to keep its original shade or let it age naturally. If you let it
