Care & cleaning
As a natural material, leather requires looking after. If you care for the leather in the right way, it will become even more beautiful over time. Here are a few tips:
Our leather is ready for you to use as soon as it arrives, so there is no initial need to treat it or clean it. Over time if you see the need for cleaning, use a vacuum cleaner once or twice a month with a soft brush to remove any dust. Once or twice a year for thorough cleaning, use the foam from soap flakes stirred in warm water. Apply the foam with a dry soft cloth, minimizing any contact with water. With the exception of the hospital and care sector, avoid bar soap, saddle soap, leather cleaners, household detergents or chemical products. Regardless of the application area,TRIUMPH CRIB5® should be protected from direct sunlight, excessive heat and sharp objects

For the hospital and care sector
To accommodate typical cleaning products and protocols in this sector, please note that TRIUMPH CRIB5® can only withstand products with the same specifications as it was tested for. Namely Ethanol wipes with 70% ethanol and chlorine wipes with 1000 ppm sodium hypochlorite.

The care and maintenance of leather will always depend on the specific way in which it is used, the conditions of use and how often it is used.
