As summer comes to an end, many hospitality furniture owners found themselves staring at zero, with little or negligible knowledge of proper furniture care and maintenance. Hospitality outdoor furniture manufacturers are the most suitable people to contact and receive handy information on how to go about taking care of your unique and expensive outdoor furniture so that it can retain its beautiful finish even after exposure to harsh and moderate environmental pollutants throughout the year. We cannot expect furniture to last long without any damage if we fail to take proper care of it.

Given below are some guidelines related to all types of furniture as well as more specific pointers to handle more challenging situations. Read on to know more about it.

To begin with, go through the manufacturer's guidelines. Many furniture owners do not give attention to these pesky little papers that contain useful piece of information. Manufacturer's guidelines are the most reliable and accurate source of information for furniture care and maintenance.

Light cleaning with mild dish-washing soap with lukewarm water is more effective than you would have thought in first place! You can use a soft sponge, or soft brush to rinse your outdoor furniture, and then pat dry it with a lint free cloth.

Cover your outdoor furniture when not in use. Covering your outdoor furniture adds years to their life as well as preserves the craftsmanship from the elements and even come accidents.

Avoid using power wash, using chlorine beach, and/or pine oil. These cleaning methods can be too harsh and extreme for your outdoor furniture. Do not use them unless indicated in the manufacturer's guidelines.

Taking care of outdoor furniture made of different materials

Wicker Outdoor Furniture: Wicker outdoor furniture is tricky in the sense that dusty and pesky particles are able to make their way through the frame and nest inside. It is mainly due to tangled nature of the frame that makes it safe haven for such particles and pests. Vacuuming is the most effective solution to maintain your wicker furniture as it sucks the dust and dirt hidden and settled in the nooks and crannies of wicker surfaces. After vacuum, wipe your wicker with a damp cloth and it will shine like new once again.

Teak Furniture: Teak outdoor furniture is one of the most expensive furniture piece you could buy from hospitality outdoor furniture manufacturers. Scrub it at least once a year with scrubbing brush. Teak is one of the most durable and robust material, and that is why it is an automatic choice for many hotel owners who are looking to buy premium outdoor furniture. Consult the manufacturer for care and maintenance recommendations.

Metal Furniture: Metal outdoor furniture can last really long with regular annual maintenance using appropriate cleaning tools and material. A thorough inspection every spring can avoid long-term damage. Check closely for any signs of rusting and bubbling in the varnish. If spotted, use sandpaper to clear the damaged area and then apply the manufacturer's paint.

Regular maintenance goes a long way in ensuring a long life of your expensive, beautiful outdoor furniture.
