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 fabric is characterised by its looped yarns, creating a soft, textured surface with excellent visual depth and comfort.

Care Instructions:
– Vacuum regularly using a soft brush attachment to remove dust without disturbing the loops.
– Blot spills immediately with a clean, absorbent cloth. Avoid rubbing, as this may damage the textured weave.
– Spot clean with a mild upholstery cleaner following the manufacturer’s instructions.
– Avoid sharp objects or rough clothing that may snag the looped fibres.
– Keep out of prolonged direct sunlight to minimise fading.

Why It Matters:
Gentle care helps preserve the distinctive looped texture and appearance of boucle upholstery while reducing wear and preventing snagging.
