Ecolene is a polyethylene synthetic wicker that has been developed to meet all standard specifications for outdoor furniture. The latest extrusion technology has been designed to create a synthetic wicker that is more durable, insensitive to temperature differences, free from cracking, splintering and corrosion yet still retain a natural look and feel. Ecolene is the only synthetic wicker which can withstand UV radiation (300-340 nm wavelength), extreme heat, oxidation, high moisture, mold and mildew, as well as being heavy metal free. Ecolene can truly be considered a new generation of synthetic wicker.
Unlike natural rattan and other synthetic wickers, Ecolene has been specially formulated to give the following distinguishing characteristics:
It has a textured surface that looks and feels like the natural rattan, wood, abaca & LD Series.
It is fabricated to endure rigorous outdoor conditions such as sunlight UV exposure, extreme temperature variances, mold and mildew.
It is resistant to moisture, sea water and chlorinated water.
It is strong and durable.
It does not contain polyvinyl chloride (PVC).
It has colourants and preservatives that are free of heavy metals.
It is washable and requires little maintenance.
It is 100% recyclable.
It has been certified by Oeko-Tex Standard 100.
MAINTENANCE
Ecolene has been designed to be as low maintenance as possible. We recommend a quick wash with a non-foaming, mild detergent every three months. If the fibre needs to be cleaned, simply wipe the surface with a clean, damp cloth. A soft nylon brush or a low-pressure air hose can also be used to clean between the weaving.
