How do humidity levels during construction affect the assembly of rattan installations?

Humidity levels during construction play a crucial role in the assembly and long-term durability of rattan installations. Rattan, a natural fiber, is highly sensitive to moisture, which can cause expansion, warping, or even mold growth if not properly managed. High humidity can make rattan overly pliable, leading to misalignment or loose weaving, while low humidity may cause brittleness and cracking.

To ensure optimal results, maintain a controlled environment with moderate humidity (40-60%) during installation. Pre-conditioning rattan materials to the worksite’s humidity levels before assembly can prevent post-installation issues. Additionally, using sealants or moisture-resistant coatings can enhance stability. Proper humidity management ensures rattan installations remain structurally sound and aesthetically pleasing for years.
