Care and maintenance

METAL PARTS (STRUCTURE)
This product has been made with resistant materials of the
highest quality. With correct care and maintenance you will
be able to enjoy it for many years. However, dirt or other
contaminants and bad use could damage it.
For the optimal conservation of pieces manufactured in
steel and stainless steel, especially if they are exposed to
the elements, periodic maintenance is advised.
For maximum resistance to corrosion, stainless steel
surfaces must always be kept clean. This maintenance
must be tailored to the conditions to which your product is
exposed (dust, dirt, humidity in combination with heat, salty
or potentially corrosive environments, etc.). This can vary
from one to four times a month, in normal settings, or up to
once a day in cases of unhygienic or very rough conditions.
You must be the one who adjusts and evaluates the
periodicity of the maintenance according to how the
material reacts, increasing or reducing it depending on
what is necessary for proper product care. In any case, we
recommend cleaning it at least once a week, as a starting
point.
Therefore, it's important to keep the product clean.
Please follow these simple instructions to keep the product
in good condition:
• For cleaning both steel and stainless steel, use only
a cloth dipped in warm water and mild soap. Never use
abrasive soaps or detergents, as they can leave scratches
and produce discoloration.
• Rub gently with a damp cloth. Rinse and wring the cloth
frequently, to keep it moist. Make sure to rinse well and dry
with another cloth.
• If the surface is glossy, you must wash it along the grain,
to avoid scratching the surface. On polished surfaces, you
must previously remove dust to avoid scratching the surface.
• If the event of a spill, clean the stain as quickly as possible.
• If you are unable to remove the stains with a damp cloth,
apply a metal cleaner (INOX-version stainless steel cleaner)
to the surface with a cloth. Read the instructions for the
cleaner carefully, and test it first on an inconspicuous spot.
Make sure to rinse well and dry with another cloth.
• In the INOX version, to eliminate possible rust stains that
may appear due to a porosity defect, humidity, or misuse, it
is best to use a product directly to remove rust spots.
When the product is extremely dirty, with stains,
incrustations, or signs of surface discoloration due to long
periods of neglect, or poor maintenance, we recommend
contacting professionals to restore the surface's initial
appearance.

HPL PARTS (TOP)
HPL does not require special care.
• Clean with a cloth dampened in warm water and mild soap.
• Never use abrasive soap or detergent, sandpaper or steel
wool since they could scratch the surface or make colours
fade.
• Never use furniture polish which contains wax, since these
kinds of products tend to leave a sticky layer on the surface
which attracts dust and dirt.
IROKO WOOD
As a natural material, iroko can vary in colour, or even
crack due to humidity and sudden changes in temperature.
Exposed to the elements, iroko undergoes a natural oxidation
process that affects its colour, taking on an attractive silver-
grey tone.
Iroko pieces should be treated with a waterproof sealer
to protect them from moisture and stains (provided they
are cleaned immediately). However, this sealant naturally
vanishes over time.
We recommend treating the wood with sealant every
three months, or more frequently at dining and hospitality
establishments. To restore iroko's original appearance,
sand the entire surface and apply the sealant, following the
manufacturer's instructions.
Never use soaps or abrasive detergents, or furniture
cleaning products containing wax, as these types of products
form a sticky layer on the surface that attracts dirt.
WALNUT, OAK, BEECH OR PINE WOOD
Walnut, oak, beech and pine are woods only for indoor use.
Avoid giving hard blows and if you deposit some glass that
can leave marks, dry it quickly with a cloth.
• Clean with a cloth dampened in warm water and mild soap
and dry it fast with another cloth.
• Never use abrasive soap or detergent, sandpaper or steel
wool since they could scratch the surface or make colours
fade.
• Never use furniture polish which contains wax, since these
kinds of products tend to leave a sticky layer on the surface
which attracts dust and dirt.
