FAQ – Everything You Need to Know About the Care and Use of Nappatech Eco-Leather in the Food Service and Hospitality Industries
1. What is the proper procedure for cleaning furniture upholstered with Nappatech fabric?
Maintaining impeccable cleanliness in a restaurant is crucial for upholding the highest hygiene standards. Nappatech fabric should be cleaned exclusively with mild products designed for the proper care of modern eco-leather upholstery. It is absolutely essential to follow the manufacturer’s strict guidelines: the material must not be bleached (with chlorine), pressed with a hot iron, dried in mechanical dryers, or dry-cleaned using aggressive solvents, as this could irreversibly damage the unique structure of the protective coating.
2. What products are officially recommended for waterproofing and cleaning this material?
For daily cleaning and the long-term waterproofing treatment that Nappatech fabric should undergo in a hotel setting, we fully recommend OA products that are biodegradable and safe for the surfaces they are used on, which are always available in the LUMO product line. These products remove tough stains extremely gently, ensuring that this advanced Nappatech fabric retains its unique elasticity, matte finish, and factory-applied barrier that limits the absorption of liquids and moisture.
3. What does a result of 800,000 cycles in the Martindale test mean in practice?
For a HoReCa facility manager, this incredible result is a guarantee that Nappatech fabric is virtually indestructible under normal operating conditions. Standard home furnishings have an abrasion resistance of 20,000–30,000 cycles, while high-quality contract fabrics last about 100,000 cycles. The performance of Nappatech fabric means that it will withstand, without cracking, dulling, or fraying, even under intense pressure, friction from rough clothing, and rigorous daily cleaning procedures throughout decades of intensive use in a facility.
4. Can the lighting in presentation rooms have a negative impact on the visual perception of the furniture?
No, the professional-grade Nappatech fabric is characterized by high structural stability and resistance to external factors. However, it’s important to keep technical aspects in mind when reviewing samples—as the manufacturer, we’ve made every effort to ensure that the Nappatech fabric shown in the photos fully matches the natural product. However, individual monitor settings and color saturation may affect how the fabric appears, so please verify the properties and shades on physical samples before placing a wholesale order.
