Natural Fibres (Cotton, Viscose, Wool, Virgin Wool, Linen)
What It Is:
Natural fibres like cotton, viscose, wool, virgin wool, and linen are derived from plant or animal sources and are known for their breathability and comfort.
Care Instructions:
– For regular cleaning, vacuum upholstery with a soft brush attachment to remove dust and debris.
– Spot clean stains with a mild detergent and a damp cloth. Avoid soaking the fabric to prevent water damage.
– If removable, machine wash covers according to the care label. Use cold water and a gentle detergent.
– Air dry completely before reusing. For non-removable covers, blot excess moisture and let air dry.
– Iron removable covers on a low to medium heat setting while slightly damp. Use a pressing cloth.
– Store in a dry, cool place and avoid direct sunlight to prevent fading. Use protective covers for long-term storage.
Why It Matters:
Proper care helps maintain the fabric’s natural properties, ensuring longevity and appearance while preventing damage from improper cleaning or storage.
Boucle
What It Is:
Boucle is a textured fabric characterised by its looped yarns, creating a unique, bumpy texture. It adds visual interest and dimension to upholstery.
Care Instructions:
– Vacuum regularly to remove dust and debris.
– Spot clean with a mild detergent and a damp cloth.
– For stains, gently blot with a clean cloth. Avoid rubbing to prevent damage.
Why It Matters:
Proper maintenance preserves boucle’s distinctive texture and appearance, keeping it looking fresh and stylish.
Powder-Coated & Chrome-Plated Steel
What It Is:
Powder-coated and chrome-plated steel are durable metal finishes commonly used for furniture legs and bases. Powder coating provides a hard-wearing coloured finish, while chrome plating creates a smooth, reflective surface that resists corrosion.
Care Instructions:
– Dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth.
– Wipe with a damp cloth and a mild soap solution when needed, then dry thoroughly.
– Avoid abrasive cleaners, scouring pads and harsh chemicals that may damage the finish.
– Clean spills promptly to help prevent staining or water marks.
– Avoid prolonged exposure to excessive moisture or humid environments.
Why It Matters:
Regular cleaning helps preserve the finish and appearance of powder-coated and chrome-plated steel, protecting it from scratches, corrosion and everyday wear.
