Material Details and Maintenance Guidelines

1. Painted Die-Cast Aluminum Frame

The supporting frame and distinctive geometric joints are forged from high-quality die-cast aluminum alloy, polyester powder-coated. Aluminum is the material of choice for outdoor furniture because it is structurally resistant to rust and weather.
Use and Maintenance: For ordinary cleaning, use a soft cloth dampened with fresh water and neutral liquid detergents. We recommend more frequent cleaning in high-humidity or marine climates to remove salt deposits. During the winter months or if the chairs will not be used for extended periods, it is best to clean them and store them in a covered, sheltered area.

2. Wraparound Backrest in Eco-Leather (Outdoor Leather)

The iconic backrest shell is made of outdoor eco-leather, a technical material specially treated to withstand sun exposure and weather without losing its elasticity or color intensity.
Use and Maintenance: Clean the eco-leather sides with a soft, damp cloth and neutral soap. Absolutely avoid the use of aggressive degreasers, solvents, alcohol, bleach, or abrasive sponges, which could scratch or dry out the upholstery, compromising its water-repellent softness.

3. Seat in Patented EMU-TEX Technical Fabric

The high-tension seat is made of EMU-TEX technical fabric, an exclusive patent that is washable, stain-resistant, breathable, and UV-resistant.
Use and Maintenance: Avoid prolonged contact with greasy substances or dyes to prevent permanent stains. For frequent washing, use water (max 30°C) and neutral, colorless, non-abrasive detergents. When performing intensive washing with pressure washers, it is essential to keep the nozzle tip at least 60/70 cm away from the yarn to avoid fraying the weave.

Benefits and Design

• The Innovation of Outdoor Leather: The introduction of the eco-leather backrest represents a true revolution in garden design. This material gives the chair the same luxurious texture and tactile softness typical of high-end interior furnishings, while ensuring complete outdoor durability.
• Surprising Lightness (Only 4.8 kg): Despite its large dimensions and impressive, solid visual impact, the strategic use of aluminum keeps the weight under 5 kg, making the chair extremely easy to move, even when placed in a corner.tidy up or tidy up.
• Enveloping Ergonomic Comfort: The continuous backrest and integrated armrests at a height of 66 cm offer impeccable ergonomic posture. The chair comfortably supports the body during long dinners on the terrace, serving as the perfect hybrid between a dining chair and a lounge chair.
• Record-Breaking Static Load Capacity (Up to 200 kg): The die-cast joint, inspired by the joints between cane trunks, is not only an aesthetic feat but also a cutting-edge structural core. It gives the chair exceptional mechanical rigidity, capable of withstanding heavy static loads over time without any frame flexing.

FAQ

Is the eco-leather backrest at risk of damage or cracking if the chair is left in the rain?
No. The eco-leather used by Emu for the Terramare collection is a synthetic material engineered specifically for outdoor use. It is waterproof, resistant to humidity and drying cycles, and includes special UV protection filters, preventing the risk of cracking or fading typical of natural leather used for indoor use.

Are the Terramare dining chairs stackable? No, the Terramare chair with armrests is not stackable. The structural complexity of the enveloping eco-leather shell and the fixed geometry of the armrests and aluminum joint are designed as a non-stackable, single-piece structure, focused on maximum comfort and the aesthetic solidity of the furniture.

Can I use these chairs alongside a table made of a different material? Absolutely yes. Thanks to the refined material mix (aluminum, leather, and technical fabric), the Terramare chairs are extremely versatile. They pair beautifully with both aluminum tables from the same line and tables with porcelain stoneware or teak tops, enriching the dining area with an elegant textural contrast.
