Teak Wood
Teak Wood

The teak used in Kettal products is obtained by selecting the best trunks from sustainably managed plantations controlled by Perhutani. Only the most appropriate trees are selected, one by one. The area used is the central part of the trunk, as it is the straightest and free of branches. From this painstaking selection process we obtain our teak, one of the finest in the world. The wood is planed to give it a more natural feel, and a sealant is applied.

Leather
Leather

Genuine cowhide used in high-wear areas. It has a stain-resistant finish and is easy to clean. One of its key features is its resistance to stains. Thanks to this and many other features, Kettal Leather requires no specific or costly maintenance. For everyday maintenance, clean with a soft cloth and warm water. To extend the life of Kettal Leather, we recommend using a neutral non-oily leather care product every six months. In case of stains, rub gently in circles with a damp cloth from the centre of the stain outwards. Dry the treated area with a cloth. Leather is a natural material, which means there may be slight variations in colour.

Canadian cedar
Canadian cedar

Comes from British Columbia (Canada). Complies with all legal and environmental regulation from the country of origin; the cutting of such has no ecological impact, ensuring the sustainability of the forest. Also complies with all phyto-sanitary requirements for imports. Due to their nature, the slats may have different tones. The quality of this Thuya plicata is the highest and most pure. Cedar wood contains a natural oil that gives it its characteristic appearance and a pleasant odour. The oil also serves as internal protection against ants, termites, and other agents. Cedar wood is among the most sought-after and heavily used wood materials in construction and furniture production. Its low density means that the wood does not deform.

Aluwood
Aluwood

Consists of an aluminium base with a wood effect finish. Special inks are used which, when heated, adhere to the material and produce the same effect as wood grain. Thanks to this process, we are able to apply this finish to aluminium with all the advantages of durability, maintenance, and protection of lacquering and without the inconveniences of wood. This technique is highly resistant and has greater durability than other materials.

A material characterized by a harmoniously irregular texture, by stones of different color and by tone chromatisms on tone of three-dimensional effect.

Synthetic fibre & Parallel textile
Synthetic fibre & Porotex textile

The only maintenance required for the synthetic fiber and the porotex mesh is an annual cleaning to get rid of dust and environmental debris (oils, damp) that can be trapped in the mesh or braiding. We recommend spraying the furniture with Kettal Universal cleaner, then wiping it gently with a soft sponge and rinsing with water. Rinsing the synthetic fibre with pressurized water provides better results. It is advisable to clean the synthetic fibre before storing it for the winter and at the beginning of its season of regular use.
