How do composite outdoor chairs handle exposure to sap or tree resin?

Composite outdoor chairs are designed to withstand various outdoor elements, including exposure to tree sap or resin. Made from a blend of wood fibers and recycled plastics, these chairs offer superior resistance to sticky substances compared to traditional wood or metal furniture.

When sap or resin comes into contact with composite chairs, it typically doesn’t penetrate deeply due to the non-porous surface. To remove sap, gently scrape off excess residue with a plastic scraper, then clean the area with warm, soapy water or a mild solvent like rubbing alcohol. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the composite material.

For long-term care, regularly wipe down your chairs to prevent sap buildup. Composite chairs’ resin-resistant properties make them a low-maintenance choice for outdoor settings near trees. With proper cleaning, they maintain their appearance and durability despite occasional sap exposure.
