Veneer furniture should be treated as you would with real wood, always taking care that surfaces are protected from heat and liquid spills by using mats or coasters. Wipe up any liquid spills immediately. Consider also that over time natural light can have a mellowing effect on the colour of real wood veneer, it will withstand most temperatures in the office or home although it is advisable to avoid placing the furniture right next to heat sources such as radiators. Looking after your furniture will reward you with years of good service.
