RATTAN NATURAL CORE Rattan is a type of climbing palm that is very long with a slender stem which maintains an almost uniform diameter throughout its length. It grows in a manner similar to a vine, but has an inner core and is not hollow like bamboo. The outer portion of the stem is extremely hard and durable, while the inner portion of the stem is softer and porous. The shade in the rain forests is very dense and climbing on tree limbs is the most practical way for the rattan vines to reach the light above the forest canopy. This makes Rattan ideal for continuous strips of reed and it is considered to be one of the strongest woods available ideal for weaving. The straight rattan is usually steamed and then bent into the desired shape through the use of specialized shapers. Once the rattan has dried, it will retain its shape forever. These rattan poles are often used to form the frames of what will become rattan/ wicker/ woven conservatory furniture such as chairs, tables and sofas. Rattan is incredibly durable and can withstand extreme heat without splitting or drying out so is the ideal solution in conservatories.
