Bartisch Illum aluminum - Wenge

TRIBÙ ILLUM ALUMINUM BAR TABLE

The Scandinavian living style is currently one of the most popular furnishing styles in this country. Reduced, minimalist, modern and flexible, it fits perfectly into the current urban lifestyle. The design is inspired by nature at every turn - be it through shapes or materials. The form follows function and is therefore based entirely on the principles of the Bauhaus.

The Illum collection - designed by Belgian designer duo Merckx & Maes - is a translation of classic Scandinavian design. The materials used can withstand any weather condition and become an absolute eye-catcher in your outdoor area. Functionality is the top priority with the Illum table – comfort paired with pure elegance and lightness.

The bar table is available in the following colors:

Wenge with a table top made of teak wood, but also in wenge with a table top made of ceramic - optionally in the colors: Piombo and black. The table top combination is also available with frames in white or linen. Choose the most beautiful combination.

The frame made of die-cast aluminum is double powder-coated - this ensures optimal scratch resistance and UV resistance. By using teak or ceramic for the table top, the rectangular table is not only particularly delicate, but also extremely durable.

The high-quality, weatherproof materials are ideal for outdoor use - Illum requires little maintenance and is designed for year-round use in the garden. Protect your table with a suitable protective cover to enjoy it even longer.

The bar table is available in different sizes and offers space for at least four (100x100cm) and up to six people (212x100cm) - whether it's a hearty breakfast or a cozy dinner with friends - Illum offers plenty of space for pleasant hours outdoors.

Optimal use and maintenance

All furniture in the Illum collection is extremely easy to maintain thanks to its aluminum frame and teak or ceramic table tops and is also suitable for use in harsh, salty climates such as by the sea or by the swimming pool.

The teak used comes from plantations on the Indonesian Java Island and is hand-picked during the tree cutting process.

Ceramic is one of the most stable materials on the garden table market - the reason for this is its high density. This property also means that the surface of the material is smooth, preventing the formation of mold or bacteria. This makes ceramic a hygienic surface that can be cleaned quickly and easily thanks to its unique feel. Ceramic is very heat-resistant and can withstand both frost and strong sunlight. It is also shock, impact and scratch resistant. Even acids from food cannot harm the table top.

You can also optionally order protective covers for your Tribù furniture. The gray covers are made of PU-coated polyester and are water-repellent and UV-resistant. Thanks to their excellent breathability, the covers reduce condensation and heat build-up - thus preventing the formation of mold. However, they are not 100% waterproof. Always ensure furniture, cushions and covers are completely dry before covering furniture.

Cleaning and maintenance

Aluminum: Clean the aluminum frame (and also the aluminum table top) with water and a PH-neutral soap. Use Tribù’s “Aluminium Cleaner” for all stubborn dirt. We also recommend impregnating the aluminum parts with “Teflon Protector” twice a year to particularly protect the material from dirt.

Teak wood: Treat new teak wood with Tribù's “Teak Protector” 4 to 6 weeks after first use. This leaves an invisible layer, which prevents stains and green deposits. Dirty teak can be cleaned with the “Teak Super Cleaner” from Tribù. Allow the furniture to dry completely and then apply the “Teak Protector” again. To avoid labor-intensive cleaning, you can also treat the wood with Tribù’s “Teak Sealer”. Simply cleaning with water and a pH-neutral soap will last for many years. Teak Sealer contains UV protection to slow graying and a fungicide to prevent mold from forming.

Ceramic: Clean the table top with water and a pH-neutral soap. Stubborn stains can be removed with the “Glass & Ceramic Cleaner” from Tribù. The “Ceramic Protector” from Tribù can also be used to protect the table top - this provides a highly water- and dirt-repellent coating on the ceramic top. This makes it brighter, smoother and even easier to clean.
