Cadet, Venture, Berkshire and Brookland Vinyl Cleaning Instructions (External surfaces)

These vinyls have high scratch resistance and a colour solid to the base cloth.
Anti-Microbial and Anti-Fungal Protection. Tested to AATCC147.
• Clean and care for the fabric on a regular basis and it will maintain its condition and appearance.

Most stains can be removed by wiping clean.

•  The new generation of microfibre cleaning cloths are extremely effective with or without soap for general care and maintenance.
•  Wipe clean regularly with a damp cloth to remove dust particles and light soiling.
•  Remove spillages promptly (within 15 minutes) with an absorbent dry cloth.
•  For heavier soiling, use a soft brush with care to avoid abrasive damage to surface and tepid soapy water (non-alkaline).

Rinse clean with clear water. Dry with an absorbent cloth.

•  Bodily fluids should be removed promptly (within 15 minutes) with cold water and then cleaned as above.
•  Extreme soiling/infection control use a 5% sodium hypochlorite (bleach) solution.

Dartex Cleaning Instructions (User Contact Surfaces)

General Guidance

• Attention must be paid to the properties of any other materials, which may be combined with Dartex Coatings fabrics in the final

article (e.g. dimensional stability, colour fastness, washing instructions).

• Some surface wrinkling may result from cleaning procedures. This has no adverse effect on the fabric’s properties.
• Abrasive cleaning agents should not be used.

Washing and Disinfection

• Superficial dirt on the coating may be removed by wiping with a soft cloth moistened with water containing a neutral detergent.

More persistent contamination may be treated by wiping with alcohols or turpentine substitute, followed by hot water and

detergent.

• Cleaning and disinfection in situ may be carried out on the coating with hand hot water and a neutral detergent or with a sodium

hypochlorite solution (0.1% or 1000 parts per million available chlorine).

• Proprietary disinfectants may be used provided manufacturer’s instructions are followed.
• All cleaning agents, and disinfectants, must be thoroughly rinsed off and the item dried before storage. Failure to do this may

result in the accumulation of reagent that could damage the polyurethane coating, react with the chair frame, or negate the

biocompatibility results of the Dartex fabric.

Drying

• It is essential that articles be thoroughly dried after all cleaning procedures and before storage.

Storage

• Store in a cool, dry area. Avoid excessive pressure and contact with non-colourfast materials.
