Faux leather: features and benefits
A faux leather sofa is made from synthetic materials such as polyurethane or PVC, designed to replicate the look of real leather. It is appreciated for its practicality and easy maintenance, although it still requires proper care.
Over time, dust and residues can settle into the micro-pores of the surface. As a result, deeper cleaning becomes necessary to avoid streaks and uneven appearance.

To keep your sofa clean, regular maintenance is essential. At the same time, you should always use methods suitable for faux leather. Most stains come from dust, food, drinks or everyday use.

Can an oak parquet floor stained by moisture and construction residue be restored without sanding? That was the challenge faced by EASY PARKET by Francesco Ghelardi during this project in Prato, Tuscany, Italy. The floor, installed throughout the bedrooms and hallway of a private home, showed dark stains caused by moisture trapped under a nylon covering during masonry work, together with typical post-construction dirt and residue. Thanks to a technical and conservative approach, the surface was restored without sanding. This choice preserved the original micro-bevel of the parquet and brought back the natural beauty of the wood.
