Plywood furniture

Wood displays different grain patterns depending 
on which way it is cut. Plywood is made from 
layered sheets and therefore the edges can vary 
in colour and grain pattern. Plywood can have 
small holes within the layers of birch wood due 
to knots falling out. Some knots remain and are 
coloured black. However, all edges are sealed to 
stop moisture getting in. 

All timber surfaces will change colour and mellow 
over time. New furniture will initially vary in shade 
from items that have been previously purchased. 

Laminate can fade over time.  
Not for outdoor use.

How to care for your furniture

Furniture with a laminate should be dusted with a 
slightly-damp, soft cloth and wiped dry to remove 
fingerprints and dirt. 

Spray polishes are best avoided as they contain 
silicones which may spoil the furniture’s surface  
by building up over time.

Make sure all surfaces are protected from heat 
and excessive liquid. Wipe spills dry immediately.

Our furniture will endure most temperatures in 
the home but it is best to avoid placing furniture 
next to heat sources such as radiators or fires. 
Be particularly careful with plywood as the lack 
of humidity caused by central heating can cause 
damage such as warping.

This information is intended only as a general 
guide. For severe scratches or stains, and

General warnings

Never drag furniture when moving it, always lift it.
Periodically check all fixings to ensure none have 
come loose and re-tighten where necessary.
Please take care when handling or moving the 
furniture as careless handling may cause damage 
or injury.  

Furniture can be dangerous if incorrectly installed. 
Assembly should be carried out by a competent 
person. No liability will be accepted for damage  
or injury caused by incorrectly installed or 
assembled furniture.
