The main component of this product is cane, also known as rattan palm, which grows on the ground and climbs trees in shady, humid rainforests. It is characterized by the lack of a canopy, and its leaves are scattered. Beneath its tough outer bark, its stem can grow longitudinally to an exceptional length, even up to 200–300 meters. Its material is both very strong and flexible. The inner, softer portion—pedig—is mainly used for rattan for weaving, craft ideas, as well as rattan for furniture repairs. As a renewable material, we gladly recommend our rattan material UK to our environmentally conscious customers!
