MATERIALS – MANTAINANCE AND CLEANING
RESPECT FOR NATURE
Morelato uses for the production of its furniture only wood coming from plantations thus avoiding deforesta-
tion. As Morelato furniture lasts over the years also the problem of the recycling of wood , typical for low
quality furniture is avoided.
WOOD
Wood is a natural material. Each piece of wood has its own colour and vain pattern. Differences in the
vain pattern are no reason for complaint as their outcome is a different colour shade. Articles which
have been purchased at different moments may reveal differences in colour and shades. Never use
thinners, alcohol, chemical abrasives or solvents for the maintenance and cleaning.
For all frame parts Morelato uses solid wood, which guarantees the functionality (endurance, stability, aesthe-
tics) of the product over the years. For some of the surfaces veneered panels of multilayered wood are used.
Each layer of wood is pressed in a 180° position upon the other so that the different layers support each
other and deformation due to changes in temperature and humidity are avoided. Also other panels composed
of lists of wood are used for the surfaces. They have a double counter-pressed external veneer. For the large
surfaces such as the wardrobe doors, Morelato uses hollow wood panels. The frames are made of solid wood
while inside a honey-bee structure reduces the weight of these panels. Morelato does not use any chipboard
panels in its production.
CONSTRUCTION TECHNIQUES
For the assembly of its furniture Morelato uses a joint technique. The pieces of each item are joined thanks
to the mill cutting and counter cutting so that they fit perfectly. This artisan technique increases the value of
the furniture. Other peculiarities are the adjustable wooden shelf supports, the dovetail and the comb joint,
which enforce the seats of the chairs.
THE POLISHING
For the finishing Morelato uses the best products available on the market. Surfaces are polished with highly
resistant ecological varnish able to guarantee the colour over the years. Samples of the different colours of
finishing can be found in our fabric and wood sample folder. For customized finishing a colour sample or
another furniture component as a reference is required.
Pieces of furniture purchased at different moments may present differences colour and shades. Never
use thinners, alcohol, chemical abrasives or solvents for the maintenance and cleaning.
THE FABRICS
The upholstery of chairs and sofas is still a artisan craft. For the upholstered items it is possible to select a
fabric from the sample folder or the customer can send us his fabric for the upholstery.
Leather: Morelato uses exclusively high quality materials and leather for a production which still respects
the best Italian artisan tradition. As leather is a natural product its colour and structure will never be uni-
form: the small differences guarantee the total quality of the material used. A wrinkled surface is not a
defect as leather cannot be uniform, thus each small wrinkle is a sign of authenticity. For the cleaning of the
leather surfaces specific leather cleaning products must be used. We inform our customers that leather is
not water proof.
Fabric: The colours of the fabric in the sample folder are approximate: it is in fact impossible in the
course of time to maintain the colour shade. We decline any responsibility for the colour-matching of
articles upholstered with fabric acquired at different moments.
To clean items with fixed fabric: use a dry foam spray for upholstery and brush with care but not too
energetically.
To clean items with removable lining: dry-wash the fabric or wash at low temperature (max. 30°) using
a short programme and soft soap. Do not wring or centrifuge and let the fabric dry in the shadow. If
necessary iron with a steam iron at low temperature.
WARRANTY CERTIFICATE
Each piece of furniture is supplied with a warranty certificate and guarantees the customer when the fur-
niture arrives in case of production defects. The customer also receives simple instructions how to use the
piece of furniture, its maintenance and protection from eventual damaged caused by unsuitable environ-
mental conditions
