Care Requirement – Gentle & regular cleaning 

Cleaning Guide - Soft materials should be cleaned weekly to prevent dust and debris from settling into the fibres. Use a vacuum with a soft upholstery attachment or a gentle brush to remove surface dirt. For minor marks, spot clean using a damp cloth, taking care not to rub the fabric aggressively. For more stubborn stains, use a fabric cleaner specifically designed for the material. When cleaning, avoid over-wetting, as excessive moisture can damage fibres and affect the structure or finish of the material. 

Placement Guide - To maintain the quality and longevity of soft materials, place them in areas with low to medium exposure to sunlight, ideally indirect light only. Prolonged direct sunlight can cause fabrics to fade and fibres to weaken over time. These materials should also be kept away from saltwater exposure and positioned at a moderate distance from heat sources such as heaters or fireplaces. Moderate humidity levels are recommended to help preserve the integrity of the fibres. To ensure even wear and maintain their shape, rotate and fluff cushions or soft elements every 3–6 months. 

Deep Cleaning Guide - Soft materials should undergo deep cleaning every 6–12 months to maintain their appearance and extend their lifespan. For upholstered furniture, professional steam cleaning is recommended to effectively lift embedded dirt while protecting the fabric. For faux leather surfaces, use a mild leather cleaner followed by a conditioner to help restore softness and maintain suppleness. Regular vacuuming between deep cleans will help minimise dirt build-up and reduce the need for intensive cleaning. When caring for soft materials, avoid abrasive tools such as steel wool, and do not expose the material to solvents, oils or petroleum-based products. DIY remedies such as vinegar or baking soda should also be avoided, as they may damage the material. When treating stains, blot gently rather than rubbing, as rubbing can spread the stain and weaken the fibres.
