Washing, cleaning, care of fabrics and leather
Maintenance of the most common stains
If your sofa get stained and you have a fabric or leather which can be cleaned, remember to try your cleanser in a not visible place, to make sure that it is not harmful for the fabric.
Ordinary maintenance of fabric coverings – Water washing
As our fabrics are different from those used for clothing, we recommend to let them be washed in specialized laundries. If you wash it at home, follow the instruction on the label, and you will see that everything will be fine.
Ordinary maintenance of fabric coverings – Dry wash
For dry cleaning, you have to use specialized laundries, always providing all the useful information you find both in the manual and on the label of your sofa. We also advise you to cover the rigid parts during washing.
Maintenance of covers in eco-leather
The eco-leather is resistant to stains: in the event of accidental fall of liquids it will be enough to remove them with a sponge, or with a soft cloth. Remember to not use products that contain chemical components, bleaches, solvents.
Maintenance of the covers in leather
Dust your leather sofa periodically with a dry, soft and non-abrasive cloth. You can also use cleansing milk or warm water with the addition of a little neutral soap. Proceed, if you can, with a specific moisturizing treatment every six months.

For the foam pads
For the foam pads we remind you to alternate the most used cushions with those less used. Beat the back and seat cushions with your hands to prevent crushing in the areas of greatest stress.
