maintenance and properties
Do you wish to enjoy your De Ploeg fabrics for a long time? Then take this advice to heart so that you can enjoy your De Ploeg curtain and upholstery fabrics for as long as possible.
curtain fabrics
Do not allow curtains to become too dirty. Washing or dry-cleaning gives a better result when they are not too dirty and the curtains remain in a good condition for longer. Remove the hooks before cleaning, because they may damage the fabric, the washing machine or the cleaning equipment.
Larger curtains can generally not be washed in a washing machine. If the washing machine’s drum is too full, then the curtains will be subjected to too much friction and creasing. Furthermore, woollen curtains may only be dry-cleaned.
upholstery fabrics
- Do not cut off any pulls. Pull them back through the fabric.
- Vacuum with a smooth nozzle. If necessary, brush with a soft furniture brush.
- Avoid direct sunlight.
- Remove dust with a moist shammy leather which has been soaked in water and wrung dry.
- Regularly clean your furniture.
Every covering material must be treated differently when maintaining it and removing stains. De Ploeg recommends always following the instructions given at www.james.eu. Never use a dirt-repelling agent. It may invalidate the warranty. We have good experience with the use of James cleaning agents. The James products are available from good furniture stores and speciality stores. Further tips for removing stains from De Ploeg fabrics can be found at www.james.eu.
