Aqua-clean technology treatment
AquaClean is a patented treatment that ensures a furniture with limited maintenance. The treatment covers every single fibre with an invisible molecular coating keeping dirt from penetrating into the fibres.
The AquaClean technology allows you to clean the majority of household stains and general soiling without having to resort to the washing machine.
This treatment can last throughout the lifetime of the fabric, and it does not degrade with time. Note that every type of fabric has different cleaning instructions. Also, consumers can use different types of detergent or washing machine programs.
Presuming one yearly machine wash of the sofa fabric, the AquaClean fabrics endure our 10 washing machine cycles, giving them a life expectancy of 10 years.
So far the only aqua clean treatment we have is Frisco.
FRISCO has a unique and patented AquaClean technology treatment. This treatment can last throughout the lifetime of the fabric, and it does not degrade with time. The AquaClean technology allows you to clean the majority of household stains and general soiling without having to resort to the washing machine. Simply remove as much of the spilled substance as possible without rubbing it further into the fabric. Next, pour a small amount of water onto the stain — enough to dissolve the stain without soaking the fabric. Some stains may also require a dab of soap. If needed, wash FRISCO at 30°.
Cleaning recommendations:
Immediately remove as much of the spilled substance as you can without rubbing the substance further into the fabric. Then pour a small amount of water onto the stain. Enough to dissolve the stain but it should not soak the fabric entirely!
Rub the stain softly in circles with a clean, uncoloured paper towel. Continue to change the paper towel for a new, clean paper towel as often as required otherwise the stain will smudge. Add more water if necessary and repeat the treatment until the stain has disappeared.
It may be necessary to repeat the treatment several times. Let the fabric dry to see if the stain has gone. If not, repeat the treatment. We cannot guarantee that the toughest household stains can be removed entirely.
Some stains may require that you add water and a dab of soap. This may also be necessary for light fabrics which are more difficult to clean than dark fabrics. If possible, we recommend removing the cover to protect the upholstery from becoming wet.
General care instructions for fabrics with aquaclean:
Clean stains with water
DO NOT use the BoConcept Textile Protection for aquaclean, as it may damage the fabric.

Afterwards, pour a small amount of water onto the stain. Enough to dissolve the stain, but it should not soak the fabric entirely!

Regularly vacuum the fabric. Dust will increase the wear on a product.
Avoid placing furniture in high-humidity areas as it may result in mould, discolouration and quality deterioration.
Contact with alcohol, thinner and benzene/benzole will cause colour and quality deterioration. Also avoid contact with chemical materials such as paints, nail polish or nail polish remover. Jeans and colourful clothes may discolour light fabric surfaces.
