Materials & Construction
Teak Frame & Reclining Mechanism
Natural Finish Teak: Saranac uses a natural finish teak frame, with Gloster selecting teak for its close grain, natural oil content, and suitability for long‑term outdoor use.
Gas Strut Recline: The integrated gas strut mechanism supports smooth, incremental recline adjustment, allowing the backrest to be positioned for upright reading or laid‑back lounging.
Outdoor Cushion Technology
Solution‑Dyed Acrylic Fabrics: Gloster notes that its upholstery fabrics use Sunbrella solution‑dyed acrylic yarns, where colour runs through the fibre, improving UV fade resistance.
Performance Fabric Groups: Outdoor Performance, Water Resistant, and Soft Touch fabrics combine different balances of softness, water resistance, and tactile texture while maintaining suitability for outdoor cushions.
Usage & Care
Lounger Applications
Poolside & Terrace Lounger: With its adjustable backrest and 202cm length, Saranac is suitable for pool decks, roof terraces, and garden lounging areas where flexible reclining comfort is needed.
Protective Cover: A dedicated protective cover is available to help minimise soiling and weathering when the lounger is not in regular use.
Teak, Fabric & Cover Care
Teak Maintenance: Gloster recommends allowing teak to weather naturally with periodic cleaning, avoiding power washing and traditional teak oils, and using Teak & Upholstery Cleaner and Protector where enhanced stain resistance is desired.
Fabric & Cover Care: Outdoor cushions benefit from prompt cleaning of spills and periodic maintenance, while Weathermax protective covers should be fitted to dry furniture and kept free of standing water to optimise performance.

Combined with Gloster’s performance‑driven approach to teak, fabrics, and protective covers, Saranac is a durable and comfortable choice for contemporary outdoor lounging.

Gloster’s 2026 warranty terms state that outdoor furniture is warranted to the original purchaser against defective materials and workmanship under intended reasonable use, with teak frames, reclining mechanisms and cushions covered when maintained according to Gloster’s aftercare instructions.
