Emu low table Tami

The Tami low square table, conceived by renowned designer Patrick Norguet, is the ideal complement to complement the eponymous modular outdoor seating system with functionality and elegance. Its supporting structure is based on cutting-edge engineering in painted aluminum, onto which the slats of the table top are mounted using an exclusive and clean geometric interlocking system. Perfect for placing in the center of an outdoor living area, next to sofas and armchairs, or as a corner element to connect modular seating, this coffee table is designed to withstand the elements over time and to adapt stylishly to gardens, luxury terraces, and commercial outdoor spaces.

Top Configuration Options

The Tami square coffee table top is highly customizable and available in two exclusive, high-quality material options:

• WPC (Wood Plastic Composite) Bamboo Top: A cutting-edge, eco-sustainable composite material obtained from recycled wood and bamboo fibers. It is 100% recyclable, resistant to water, weather, and bacteria, and is extremely easy to clean.
• Heat-Treated Natural Bamboo Top: An organic choice of the highest quality. The bamboo slats are heat-treated at 200°C and then hot-compressed, making them harder, denser, and more resistant than any other wood species, protecting them from fungi and mold.

Material Details and Maintenance Guidelines

1. Coated Aluminum Structure

The supporting frame and special support profiles are made of high-quality aluminum alloy with polyester powder coating, an industrial technology that prevents corrosion.
Use and Maintenance: To keep the product in good condition for a long time, we recommend proper periodic cleaning, especially frequently in locations with high humidity and a marine climate. We recommend cleaning the surfaces with a soft cloth using water or a neutral detergent. Prolonged and continuous exposure to intense UV radiation or very low temperatures may affect the initial characteristics of the colored polyester coating. We recommend cleaning and storing the products in a sheltered place during prolonged periods of non-use and in winter.

2. Bamboo WPC Slats

This composite material does not splinter, is not damaged by insects or bacteria, and does not require periodic protective coatings.
Use and Maintenance: For optimal outdoor maintenance, we recommend cleaning the product periodically:
– for dust and debris: use a vacuum cleaner to remove dirt and debris;
– for dirt stains: clean with a laundry brush using neutral soap and warm water;
– for oil stains: dab promptly with absorbent paper and clean the area with warm water and neutral soap.
It is recommended not to use pressure washers, which could damage the product. It is recommended not to use bleach or chlorine-based detergents. Do not use strongly acidic or strongly alkaline detergents. Use neutral detergents, preferably diluted in water.

3. Solid Bamboo Slats

Because this is a natural, untreated wood, it is subject to stains if exposed outdoors and tends to oxidize due to climatic factors, turning gray.
Use and Maintenance: Since this is a natural, untreated material, it is susceptible to staining and, if exposed outdoors, it is susceptible to oxidation and therefore tends to turn gray. To reduce these two effects, we recommend applying oil at least once a year. Precisely because it is a natural product, stain removal once it has penetrated is not possible; treating the surface before using the materials would slightly increase the possibility of removing them before they are absorbed. While for ordinary cleaning and surface sanitization, it is sufficient to use water and neutral detergents.

Advantages and Design

• Patrick Norguet's Signature: The coffee table faithfully reproducesThe geometric, ethereal design of the entire Tami collection is evident. The clean, industrial lines of the metal frame blend harmoniously with the visual warmth of the slatted top, creating a living room piece with a high stylistic value.
• Modular and Versatile Design: Thanks to its nearly symmetrical dimensions (86 x 89 cm) and its 25 cm lower height, this square coffee table perfectly aligns with the base of the Tami armchairs and sofas. It can be integrated as a central table or as a corner island within an "L" configuration.
• Eco-Friendly, Highly Resistant Materials: The use of 100% recycled WPC demonstrates EMU's strong focus on eco-sustainability, while also offering a table top that is completely waterproof and extremely easy to maintain on a daily basis.
• Excellent Ground Balance (Up to 30.6 kg): The table's structural weight guarantees impeccable static stability on outdoor areas and open terraces, preventing the furniture from shifting or tipping over in strong gusts of wind.

FAQ

Which of the two versions of the Tami table top requires less maintenance?
The version with the Bamboo WPC top does not require any extraordinary maintenance, oiling, or painting, maintaining its original appearance in the Time-consuming cleaning with simple water and neutral soap. The bamboo version, being a natural, living material, requires the application of a protective oil at least once a year to counteract the natural graying and oxidation process caused by sunlight.

Can I use a pressure washer to clean the slats of the coffee table?
No, the use of pressure washers or high-pressure cleaners on WPC slats is strongly discouraged, as the force of the water jet could scratch the composite's finish or damage the fibers. For maintenance, always use a soft laundry brush with warm water and neutral soap.

What does the maximum load of 100 kg mean for this coffee table?
The static load of 100 kg indicates the maximum vertical weight that the aluminum frame and interlocking slats can safely support. This value is strictly guaranteed as long as the weight is distributed evenly and steadily across the surface, preventing the table from being used improperly as a seat or step.
