The Ellis Outdoor Furniture collection is engineered to endure the demanding Australian outdoor climate. To maximise the longevity of your furniture, it is advisable to store items under cover whenever possible, particularly to shield them from prolonged exposure to intense sunlight.
Extending the lifespan of your furniture can be achieved by minimising its direct exposure to harmful UV rays, inclement weather, and extreme heat. If storage is not practical, utilising durable furniture covers is highly recommended.
Care Instructions.
Aluminium Products:
Clean aluminium components with a wash-and-wax car polish or a soft cloth dipped in mild detergent and warm water. Always dry thoroughly with a clean cloth. Avoid abrasive, acidic, alcohol-based, or solvent cleaners as these may impair the paint finish.
Cushion Fabric/Upholstery:
All fabrics, including those designed for outdoor use, will fade with sun exposure. To maintain their appearance, store cushions indoors or protect them with waterproof covers when not in use. For routine maintenance, vacuum or brush lightly to remove debris. Spot clean light stains with a mild detergent solution, rinse thoroughly, and allow cushions to air dry standing on end. Use approved commercial outdoor cleaners for stubborn stains or mildew, ensuring the entire surface is treated to prevent water rings.
Wicker:
Polyester or synthetic wicker can be cleaned using wash-and-wax car polish or warm soapy water; leave to dry naturally. Remove dirt and dust with a soft bristle brush, paying special attention to crevices between weaves, and wipe down with a damp cloth.
