5 Reasons to Choose Synthetic Rattan Furniture
Synthetic rattan furniture is as good as the real one, quality-wise, but with extra benefits. Here are five reasons to consider buying furniture made of synthetic rattan:
Ideal for Outdoor Use
Synthetic rattan is used outdoors because it handles rain, heat and sun better than untreated natural rattan. That makes it a practical choice for garden chairs, side tables, benches and terrace loungers on hotel and villa projects.
Last Longer
Outdoor programmes need pieces that survive a full season of sun and showers. Synthetic rattan is specified for that duty cycle, which matters when the same SKU is repeated across rooms or pool decks.
Easy to Maintain
Most cleaning is water and a cloth; a mild soap wash is enough for deeper dirt. That keeps housekeeping simple on resorts and residential gardens alike.
Comfortable but Strong
Synthetic rattan mimics the texture and lightness of the real one, so you can still feel comfortable sitting on a garden chair. It is also durable, making it a great option to accommodate various objects or people with diverse body shapes and sizes.
Stylish, Elegant Designs
Synthetic rattan furniture comes in various styles, designs, and colours. You can find something that matches your aesthetic and exterior.
Recommendations for Synthetic Rattan Furniture
Use this list when planning a garden or terrace package — for a retail catalogue or a hospitality FF&E schedule.
Sofa Set
A synthetic rattan sofa set (long seat, one or two chairs, table) works for residential gardens and for small hotel lobbies or poolside lounges. The woven pieces are easier to rearrange than heavy solid-wood sofas.
Sunlounger
Sunlounger is ideal for a swimming pool, a patio, or a hot tub. This type of rattan furniture is designed for relaxation and personal downtime, and the synthetic material is able to withstand natural elements and moisture from splashes.
Moon Chair
A moon chair is perfect for creating a cozy corner in the garden, such as under the shade. Large and round, the chair is perfectly angled for lounging and relaxing. The synthetic rattan makes the chair comfortable, whether cushioned or not.
Outdoor Dining Set
An outdoor dining set makes it possible to enjoy delightful mealtimes in the garden. Synthetic rattan comes as dining tables, chairs, and even covers. It is a perfect set to have a relaxing meal with family, a romantic dinner, or entertain guests.
Storage Boxes
Why stop at statement pieces when storage spaces can also be highlighted? Synthetic rattan comes in storage boxes, giving you practical and decorative functions. The texture and earthy shade allow these boxes to blend effortlessly with the other furniture pieces.
Where to Get the Best Garden Furniture
If you are building an outdoor line or furnishing garden and terrace areas, look for a workshop that weaves synthetic rattan and rope in-house and can run OEM or custom sizes.
Mobelindo makes synthetic rattan and rope furniture in Pecangaan, Jepara, for hotels, resorts and importers. Frames are paired with woven seats and backs suited to outdoor use; natural rattan on kiln-dried teak frames remains the better indoor option — see our natural rattan range.
