What abrasion resistance ratings should commercial rattan planters have?
Commercial rattan planters should have high abrasion resistance ratings to withstand frequent use and outdoor conditions. Ideally, they should meet industry standards such as EN 13594 (for protective gloves, but often referenced for material durability) or ASTM D4060 (for abrasion resistance testing). A rating of at least 10,000 cycles on the Taber Abrasion Test indicates good durability, while premium planters may exceed 20,000 cycles. Look for UV-resistant and weatherproof coatings to enhance longevity. Heavy-duty rattan planters used in high-traffic areas should prioritize reinforced weaves and thick resin coatings for maximum wear resistance. Investing in high-quality abrasion-resistant rattan ensures long-term performance and aesthetic appeal.
