Are polyethylene loungers prone to static buildup in low humidity?
Polyethylene loungers, like many plastic materials, can indeed accumulate static electricity in low-humidity environments. This occurs because dry air lacks moisture to dissipate electrical charges, allowing them to build up on the surface of the lounger. While not harmful, static buildup can cause minor discomfort when touching the furniture. To reduce static, consider using anti-static sprays, humidifiers, or fabric covers. Regular cleaning with a damp cloth can also help minimize static accumulation on polyethylene surfaces.
