What is the Best Way of Cleaning Different Office Upholstery?

It doesn’t matter if you have a bigger office or a smaller intimate one because the state and condition of your upholstery pieces will always affect how people will perceive the cleanliness and quality of your business as a whole. Unkempt upholstery can easily break or damage your overall brand image and reputation.

While it is already a given that you need to vacuum and brush off any debris or dirt from your upholstery, it is important to carry out proper cleaning measures all the time.

But first, you need to know the specific type of material that the upholstery is made of so you can meet their care requirements.

Read on below to learn about some of the most popular types of fabric and the cleaning methods applicable to them:

Fabric

If you are dealing with fabric upholstery, run a vacuum over the material and see to it you clean cracks in between the cushions. Spot-check the cleaner then apply this to the fabric afterwards. Use a piece of dry microfiber cloth to remove the cleaner using a circular pattern.

You can also spray and wipe with isopropyl alcohol to get rid of stains. Tougher soil might need the service of expert commercial cleaning service since different stains will need steam extraction and specific commercial cleaning products.

Frames

Most of the time, upholstered furniture features made of wood, aluminum, or metal. These may seem trivial but even the smallest details could make the biggest difference.

You can clean wood using a simple wood cleaner spray. A dry microfiber cloth can also be used for removing dirt or dust.

There are times when aluminum and metal may need a cloth and water although a soft brush can be used for getting rid of any stuck-on substances.

Leather           

Leather is a material with the tendency to dry and crack as it is exposed to sunlight and wear and tear. To stop this from happening, you can use a soft cloth to dust its surface and apply a moisturizer afterwards like a saddle soap. You need to apply the moisturizer gently with no need to buff the material.

You can use a specialty leather cleaner or gentle soap to spot clean your leather upholstery. You can mix it with water and lather on. There is no need for drying because leather can absorb these substances.

Suede

Suede has the tendency to stain easily so it is important that you know of its specific care requirements. You can use suede brushes to maintain the texture of the fabric. It is also recommended to apply stain repellent because it can lengthen the fabric’s lifespan and make the cleaning process easier. If there is a stain on the material, you should gently blot the spot right away. A suede brush, a suede eraser, and baking soda can also be used for set-in stains.

Office upholstery is one of the significant investments you make to spruce up your workspace. If you want to make cleaning your upholstery easier, you can entrust this task to the hands of the experts at Courtesy Building Services Inc.
