Broadcaster and writer David Domoney, brand ambassador on the Hartman stand at SOLEX today and tomorrow, demonstrates the company’s latest all-weather cushions, which have been rolled out across the company’s garden furniture ranges.

“It wasn’t that long ago that you couldn’t leave any garden furniture out all year round,” David (below) said, “Now you can even leave the cushions out in a downpour.”

Hartman Weatheready permeable cushions are made from a water-resistant fabric that allows water to bead and run off. In heavier persistent rain, water penetrates the sewing seams but flows through the permeable fabric and out through the mesh base beneath.
