Avoiding common mistakes when cleaning fine wool carpets is essential to preserving their beauty.
Daily maintenance
Vacuum cleaning: An effective way to remove dust deposited on the surface.
Extraordinary maintenance
Injection-extraction carpet cleaner: The ideal method for optimal cleaning on various textile surfaces.
We recommend consulting a specialist for professional treatment, as the complete removal of every stain cannot
be guaranteed.
Proper maintenance contributes to the long-term preservation of your carpet.
