December begins, and we all start thinking about how this year’s festivities are going to be. Where are we going to celebrate? What are we going to give as gifts? Will my house be perfect to host my guests? 
While we can’t solve these almost existential questions, we can help you keep the heart of the holiday season in perfect condition: the sofa.we know that the sofa is the heart of your home, the place where you relax after a long day and create unforgettable memories. That’s why we want to share some secrets on how to keep your sofa spotless using our innovative technology. Act fast, act rightFirst of all, the most important thing is to choose the right fabric for the heart of your home. With us you will have it easy, because all our Aquaclean fabrics have the technology that gives them their name, the Aquaclean technology, which prevents stains from penetrating the fabric, and allows us to clean these accidental stains with water only. Cleaning with waterAs we mentioned before, one of the main characteristics of our fabrics is that they are easy to clean, since we can remove stains with just water. But how does it work exactly?
Unlike other more aggressive and invasive technologies that contain PFCs, our fabrics, or rather the fibers of our fabrics, have an invisible molecular layer that prevents dirt from penetrating the fabric, which means that it can be removed with a cloth and water. If you want to see our stain cleaning video gallery, you can access with the QR below, or click here. 
But, what is the method that our expert stain cleaner follows to leave the sofa as good as this after all those catastrophic stains? Very simple, we leave you the steps here:Remove excess residue poured on the upholstery.Apply water on the stain, either directly or with a wet absorbent cloth Press on the stain with the cloth and rub gently on the fabric with circular movements. If the stain does not completely disappear, repeat the process as many times as necessary. Another type of “cleaning”, Safe FrontOn the other hand, although this other technology of all our fabrics, does not help you as such to keep the sofa visually clean, it helps you to keep it “clean” inside.Safe Front is a type of treatment that the fabrics receive during their manufacture, which limits the bacterial and viral proliferation in our fabrics. 
Sofas, as the centerpiece and heart of the home, as well as particularly large pieces of furniture, are major attractors of bacteria, viruses, and other elements that can be harmful to health. But not with Safe Front. This technology reduces the population of bacteria on the sofa by 99.9% after 24 hours on the sofa, and viruses by 91% after 2 hours of contact with the sofa.Also, for a more thorough maintenance, although not necessary with Aquaclean, you can use disinfecting agents on your sofa following the following procedure recommended directly by us:Spray a 70º alcohol solution on the sofa surface from about 30 cm away. Any sanitary alcohol will do.wipe the sofa with a dry cloth, spreading and absorbing the excess.avoid soaking the fabric with alcohol.also avoid rubbing the surface aggressively. Aquaclean Extreme, perfect for petsFor proper sofa maintenance, in homes with especially beloved pets (especially if they are allowed on the sofa), we recommend a fabric that, in addition to our previous technologies, has features recommended for the furry members of the household.Aquaclean Extreme are a series of additional collections, created to be more resistant to these homes. As additional features, they have greater durability due to a physical barrier between the fabric loops and the fabric, which helps prevent accidental snagging caused by their nails, or even rivets from pants, zippers or rings; and easier maintenance, because the collections are completely smooth so they help us to make hair removal much easier and simpler.
In addition, Safe Front especially shines on these fabrics, as it is easy for pets, who love outdoor walks so much, to bring in any bacterial or viral agents and get them on the sofa.In short, keeping your sofa in pristine condition doesn’t have to be a chore. With our fabrics, easy cleaning with water is a reality, making your life easier and allowing you to enjoy your sofa to the fullest without worries.
