Woven rattan offers superior design flexibility through intricate patterns and lightweight construction, while solid rattan provides exceptional structural strength and longevity. Both materials demonstrate distinct maintenance requirements, with woven rattan requiring more attention to weave integrity and solid rattan focusing on core preservation. Their applications differ primarily in load-bearing capacity and aesthetic versatility. At Lighting … Read more

Rattan’s strength and durability derive from its unique fiber structure, high tensile strength (30-58 MPa), and natural resilience. The material exhibits exceptional compressive strength (24.93-27.75 MPa) and benefits from advanced preservation techniques. Its sustainability and versatility make it an increasingly important resource for eco-friendly construction and design applications. Nature never fails to amaze me with … Read more

Natural rattan maintains organic properties with unique grain patterns and ages naturally, while dyed rattan offers consistent coloring and often requires different maintenance approaches. The key distinctions lie in sustainability impact, durability factors, and aesthetic versatility. Processing methods significantly affect their respective lifespans, with natural rattan lasting 10+ years under proper care and dyed variants … Read more
