Leave them outside: weather-resistant textiles

When summer turns the garden and balcony into a living room, you're certainly no stranger to the urge to leave everything outside - from the garden table to the seat cushions. Waterproof, windproof and weatherproof materials, combined with the comfort of textiles and indoor furniture, make this possible. To make sure you're well equipped, we've put together a selection of items suitable for outdoor use.

Outdoor cushions:

Whether for the next pillow fight at a garden party or as relaxing accessories, cushions bring a lounge atmosphere outdoors. As well as classic decorative cushions, you'll also find cushions for seating, pallets and garden furniture. As many outdoor textiles are made from water-repellent synthetic fibres such as polyester, they wipe off easily after a shower, dry quickly and last for several seasons.

Outdoor rugs are mainly made of PVC, because the material cleans well, keeps its shape, is anti-static and anti-allergic. In addition to their many areas of use, they are just as versatile as their design. Carpets are available in Scandinavian and modern looks. Some prints even give the impression that the rug is made from real ceramic tiles. A beautiful focal point that also feels great underfoot.

Other garden furniture and accessories that won't let you down in the rain:

Hammocks and large seat cushions can also stand up to wind and weather when their outer material is made from water-repellent plastic. So make sure you look carefully at whether the fabric and coating repel dirt and water before making your choice.

Protective accessories in case of doubt:

If you already have suitable textiles and garden furniture, you can also use storage, protective film and shelters to protect your items from the weather and winter. [[product:5340279,6145140,6353646]]
