- Timber & Finishes | Ethan Outdoor
Ethan's commitment to excellence is reflected in selecting sustainably harvested Iroko and premium timber finishes, prioritising both aesthetics and functional longevity. Whether you prefer to maintain the wood's original lustre or let it naturally age to a distinguished silver-grey, our finishes ensure your furniture remains a testament to enduring quality and care. Iroko is the premium hardwood we have chosen for the Ethan Outdoor Furniture range, and have been using for over 35 years. Our furniture ends up in some of the most extreme outdoor environments, both here in New Zealand and around the world. This hard wearing, solid and stable hardwood is highly proven and has stood the test of time. It has been used for years internationally in a wide range of industries such as boat building and exterior construction. The Heritage of Iroko Timber Ethan Timber Elegant Durability Sustainability Benefits & Quality Earth-Friendly Durability Meets Elegance Timber, unlike other alternative man-made materials, is a beautiful natural material, providing great warmth and feel, making it perfect for Ethan Outdoor Furniture. Iroko's appeal lies not just in its resilience but in its natural elegance. With a stunning timber grain and a spectrum of tones, it can naturally weather to a beautiful silver-grey patina or showcased with our premium Woodstain options. Sustainability at Heart Our commitment extends beyond craftsmanship to include the careful selection of sustainably sourced Iroko. Choosing sustainably harvested Iroko reflects Ethan’s role in a larger story of conservation and care. Achieving FSC ® (FSC-C005827) certification early on, we lead with actions that speak to a deep respect for our forests and the health of our planet. Benefits and Quality Iroko hardwood offers durability without the heaviness of Jarrah or Kwila, facilitating easier movement of furniture like benches and chairs. Preferred for its wide boards, it contributes to a premium, luxurious table surface. At Ethan, strict timber grading standards ensure only the best pieces are selected, focusing on long-term durability and performance in New Zealand's environment, thanks to our experienced grading team's expertise in selecting timber that excels in local conditions. Proudly FSC ® Certified Ethan is proud to be one of the first furniture companies in New Zealand to obtain FSC ® (FSC-C005827) certification: SGSHK-COC-001501 For more information please visit: https://fsc.org/en Our commitment to excellence is reflected in the careful selection of Ethan timber finishes, prioritising both aesthetics and functional longevity.

Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the finish. This simple care routine will preserve the natural beauty of the wood for years to come. Fabric Care Ethan’s customisable Sunbrella fabrics combine sophisticated style with durability, making them perfect for outdoor living. To keep them in top condition, clean any spills promptly using mild soap and water to prevent stains from setting. For long-term protection, use 303 Fabric Guard , a Sunbrella-recommended product that restores water and stain repellence to factory-new levels. This protective spray helps fabrics resist soiling while safeguarding against oil-based and water-based stains, all without altering the colour, breathability, or feel of the fabric.
