Functional Features
- Hydrophobic Quick-Dry Cushion Architecture
-
Padded with open-cell polyurethane foam enveloped in a heat-sealed waterproof polyester lining. Rainwater drains rapidly through the cushion core rather than trapping moisture, preventing mildew and allowing the seat to dry within hours after heavy rainfall.
- High-Tension Ergonomic Backrest Support
-
The hand-woven outdoor webbing provides flexible, body-conforming back support with natural give. It maintains constant tension without sagging under body weight, eliminating the need for a bulky back cushion.
- Apron-Clearing Armrest Profile
-
Engineered with a 65 cm (25.6 in) armrest height designed to slide cleanly under table aprons of 66 cm or higher. This allows chairs to be pushed close to the table when not in use, preserving walkway clearance on narrow patios.
- UV & Salt-Spray Resistance
-
The technical rope weave and solution-dyed acrylic cushion fabrics are treated against UV degradation, preventing color fading, fiber breakdown, and brittleness under intense solar exposure or harsh coastal salt air.
- Concealed Floor & Surface Protection
-
Fitted with non-marking, high-density nylon foot glides underneath each turned teak leg to shield teak end-grain from standing rainwater, protect delicate outdoor tile/stone, and dampen sliding noise.
- Removable & Cleanable Textile Shell
-
Seat cushion covers feature concealed marine-grade stainless steel zippers for effortless detachment. Fabric covers can be machine-washed or dry-cleaned using mild outdoor fabric detergents.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Does the Eidos 26 armchair need to be brought indoors during winter?
While built to withstand harsh weather, using breathable protective outdoor covers during winter months or storing cushions in a dry area extends upholstery life.
Are the cushion covers fully removable?
Yes, all seat and back cushion covers feature heavy-duty outdoor zippers for easy removal and cleaning.
Will the woven backrest stretch or loosen over time?
No. The backrest utilizes high-tension technical fibers specifically engineered for outdoor furniture, maintaining structural elasticity through years of exposure.
