Sisu Ash Standing Desk | Quick Ship – 1200 x 800 x 25mm

Desktop Care

Real wood desktops, unlike MDF core veneered and laminate, will build character over time, which is often one of the reasons customers, opt for solid wood.

Our desktops are completely sealed including on the underside and inside the grommet drilling which helps reduce susceptibility to humidity change.

As with any natural wood product, twisting and warping can occur in conditions with extreme temperature variations. Please bear this in mind if installing in air conditioned environments and adjust accordingly. The same consideration should be given to positioning, for example away from active radiators and direct sunlight.

Please also be aware that considerable heat can be generated from the underside of laptops. Precautions should be taken to avoid any heat related damage.

Although the lacquers used are the most robust available even these materials can be damaged. To ensure that your desktop provides years of great service please follow the product care guidance:

• Always use a mouse mat – wear and tear such as constant contact with moving items is not covered under the warranty.
• Do not use any cleaning agent that contains an abrasive, ammonia, bleach, spirit or other aggressive constituents like sanitiser sprays.
• Use a warm, damp and slightly soapy cloth to wipe over.
• Don’t use any spray cleaners as they can damage the protection of the lacquer finish or use wax, as a build-up can spoil the finish.
• Special care should be taken not to damage the lacquer finish during the first two weeks of installation.
• Lacquer can take several days to be heat-proof and up to two weeks to fully cure.
• We strongly advise placing hot objects on mats rather than the bare top particularly during this time and as a general rule to avoid damage.
• Oiled finishes don’t provide as much protection as lacquer finishes, and they aren’t as durable either.
• Particular care should be taken to wipe up spills immediately. If they are not cleaned immediately, a permanent stain can result.
