Textile care

With the right products for textile care, you can keep your furniture, cushions and other fabric surfaces fresh, clean and well cared for for longer. In this collection, you'll find practical solutions for cleaning, protecting and refreshing textiles in your home.

Textile care for furniture and home textiles

Fabric upholstery deals every day with dust, stains, skin oils and odours. Regular care helps keep the colour, texture and appearance of the material in good condition. Think of sofas, dining chairs, decorative cushions, curtains and other upholstered furniture you use often.

Proper care helps prevent dirt from penetrating deep into the fibres. That way, textiles not only stay tidier, but they often last longer too. If you're mainly looking for a product to remove dirt, also take a look at products for cleaning textiles. If you want to help prevent new stains, then protecting textiles is a logical next step.

What should you look for when choosing care products?

Not every textile needs the same approach. So pay close attention to the material, the use and the type of dirt or stain.

1. Choose based on the material

Cotton, polyester, microfiber and velvet all react differently to cleaning and protection. So preferably use a product that suits the type of upholstery. Always test a new product first on a small, inconspicuous area.

2. Choose based on the problem

• For everyday care, choose a mild cleaner or refresher.
• For a spilled drink or grease stain, a targeted stain treatment is more convenient.
• For heavily used furniture, a protective product is often a smart addition.

3. Consider where you'll use it

A sofa in the living room often needs something different from dining chairs or a rug. For floor textiles, you can also look at a carpet cleaner. If you're looking more broadly for care for fabrics in the home, you'll find more options in the textiles collection.

Practical tips for good textile care

• Remove loose dust and crumbs first with a vacuum cleaner and upholstery attachment.
• Treat stains as soon as possible. Dabbing usually works better than rubbing.
• Don't use too much product. A light, even treatment often gives the best result.
• Let textiles dry thoroughly after cleaning before using them again.
• Repeat protection regularly for furniture that gets a lot of use.

Selection guide: which product suits your situation?

• You want to freshen up a sofa: choose a mild textile cleaner for regular use.
• You have children or pets: combine cleaning with a protective spray against new stains.
• You want to keep dining chairs looking neat: choose a product that works quickly and is easy to apply locally.
• You want to tackle a rug: use a solution suitable for larger textile surfaces.

Use and combine in the home

Well-maintained textiles instantly make your interior look more polished. Especially with light fabrics, you'll quickly see a difference when upholstery stays clean and fresh. Alternate maintenance with regular airing, vacuuming and turning loose cushions. That way, you keep colour and structure in better balance for longer and materials stay pleasant to the touch.

Frequently asked questions about textile care

How often should I care for fabric furniture?

That depends on how much it's used. A sofa or chair you use every day is best vacuumed regularly and cleaned more thoroughly or reprotected a few times a year.

Can I use every care product on all fabrics?

No. Always check whether the product is suitable for your material. For delicate fabrics, testing first on an inconspicuous area is important.

What should I do with a fresh stain?

Gently blot the stain dry immediately with a clean cloth. Don't rub, because that often pushes the stain deeper into the fibres. Then use a suitable cleaning product.

Is protection after cleaning necessary?

It's not required, but it is useful. A protective layer helps prevent new stains from soaking into the fabric as quickly, especially on furniture that gets heavy use.

Do these products also work for cushions and curtains?

Often yes, as long as the material is suitable for the chosen product. Always read the instructions on the packaging and check the type of fabric carefully.
