rattan For the collection Affäire, only first class rattan is used. Rattan is a plant related to the palm tree, and grows in the Indonesian rainforest.

It is a fact that 80% of the world s rattan is growing in Indonesia where we manufacture the furniture in our own factory. For the Affaire collection we use the rattan as nature made it!

rattan used outdoors Rattan is the only material that can be harvested in nature and used for furniture without any processing.

This transformation is very beautiful and add character to the furniture. The cane will stay strong for years however the appereance will change.

Craftsmanship The processing of the rattan material is very complex but yet the same techniques which have been used for centuries.

3 rattan For the collection Affäire, only first class rattan is used. Rattan is a plant related to the palm tree, and grows in the Indonesian rainforest. Rattan is one of the fastest growing materials in the world, it regenerates in 5-7 years and it transforms CO2 into clean air. It is a fact that 80% of the world s rattan is growing in Indonesia where we manufacture the furniture in our own factory. For the Affaire collection we use the rattan as nature made it! This means we do not remove the skin and the knots of the rattan and therefore we can leave it unlacquered. The skin of the rattan will serve as its natural protection. rattan used outdoors Rattan is the only material that can be harvested in nature and used for furniture without any processing. The skin of the rattan is very strong and hardwearing and therefore suitable for outdoor use. However its natural color will in time turn silvery grey. This transformation is very beautiful and add character to the furniture. The cane will stay strong for years however the appereance will change. Wicker furniture will last longer if not exposed to water or excessive sun. Rattan furniture used on covered patios and terraces will last for generations. Craftsmanship The processing of the rattan material is very complex but yet the same techniques which have been used for centuries. The only way to work with Rattan is by applying the traditional century old method and do not require heavy machinery. The traditional method was perfected in Denmark by skilled canemakers in the 70 s. The complexity is increased in the combination of natural raw material, the synthetic fiber and precise assembling techniques. Each chair is meticulously handcrafted in our factory in Indonesia only using the finest rattan and stainless steel nails and screws. First the rattan frame of the chair is steamed and hand formed after which each chair frame is then hand woven with Polystrand fiber. These materials and precise craftsmanship produce a chair that is durable, light weight and very strong which can last for years. Enjoy this beautiful and natural product. rattan used indoors rattan used outdoors polystrand Polystrand is a weather resistant synthetic fiber. The fiber is easily recyclable. Due to the basic structure, the fiber can be melted down and re-used over and over with very little damage to the polymer chains in the fiber. It is resistant to the UV rays as well as to insects and moulds. It resists temperatures going from 50 degrees to 70 degrees. It is resistant to rain, salt water and even snow. It won t loose its elasticity even after years of intensive use. It doesn t require much maintenance. Soapy water is enough to clean it. 4 SIKA DESIGN SIKA DESIGN 5
