Flock / Microvelour- non-woven material (substitute for velvet). This is an upholstery furniture fabric with a polyester and cotton backing (usually 35% cotton, 65% synthetic), on which the pile is applied electrostatically. This gives the flock a velvety surface. Flock meets all the basic requirements that apply to furniture fabrics. Appearance is very decent. Flocks withstand any load, treated with dirt and water-repellent impregnation.
Jacquard - the common name is artificial silk. Dozens of brushes running in different directions and at different angles create a carefully selected pattern. No wonder the jacquard loom is called an outstanding human invention. It was invented by Joseph Marie Jacquard in 1801. The basic principles of the jacquard loom remained virtually unchanged, with the exception of an increase in the speed of work. The fabric is thick and tough. The loops are twisted, do not open when tightened. Jacquards "breathe", they are hypoallergenic. If a chenille thread is used in jacquard fabrics, then such fabrics are called jacquard chenille. Usually chenille thread is woven into the weft.
Chenille ("chenille")- French for caterpillar. Chenille yarn is created by weaving the villi between two strong threads, which are then twisted in a spiral. Outwardly, it looks like a furry caterpillar, hence the name. Due to the fleecy structure of the fabric, a pleasant effect of color play is created. Fabric with pile, soft, warm, creating comfort in the house. The composition of the raw material can be monophonic, say viscose, or mixed: for example, polyester with viscose, cotton or acrylic. Chenille is a very dense, durable, fashionable and relatively expensive fabric. In terms of consumer qualities, it has high wear resistance, since it contains synthetic fibers. In terms of environmental properties, it is close to tapestry, as it contains natural fibers.
Velours- A variety of pile fabrics. There are different ways to create these fabrics. The main, most common way, when a fleecy thread is intertwined with two warp threads. This can be represented as a very densely overlapping letter "W". Thus, the increased strength of velor and the density of its pile are achieved. A wide range of colors and a unique design of the fabric allow it to be used in a wide range of upholstered furniture.
microfiber— has a high resistance to abrasion, it has a rich palette of bright colors. The qualities of microfiber are the best suited for furniture coverings. It is not surprising that microfiber is called the fabric of the third millennium: high mechanical strength (breaking force), high resistance to abrasive wear ( abrasion), resistance to peeling (formation of " pellets"), unpretentious care (the fabric is well cleaned by available means), the appearance is close to natural suede.
Furniture suede- fabric imitation of a natural analogue. Furniture suede looks slightly different from natural suede, but it is much more durable and easier to care for, easy to clean. It combines the elegance, style and characteristic effects of natural suede with the strength, durability and high performance of modern materials. The fabric is 23% cotton, 70% polyester and 7% PVA glue. The fabric does not form pellets, is fire resistant, resistant to light, moisture and friction. The fabric is protected with a Teflon coating.
Scotchguards- these are simple jacquards, in the production of which a special oil-, dust- and water-repellent impregnation is used - a water-based protector that does not contain solvents. The use of this impregnation makes the fabric more resistant to various kinds of pollution and moisture.
Arpatek. The creation of Arpatek began with the development of fabrics for the automotive industry, where materials must meet particularly high requirements for performance and comfort. After many years of research and laboratory testing, we managed to create a product that fully meets the requirements for use in the manufacture of furniture, clothing, footwear, etc. Due to its unique properties and inimitable structure, this material has no analogues. Arpatek is soft, thin and noble. Looks like a natural material and feels like leather of the highest quality. Arpatek is easy to clean, tear resistant, resistant to mechanical and light effects, retains color well and does not lose its appearance. Composition: 42% viscose, 33% polyurethane, 25% cotton.
Relax The fabric is not subject to mechanical damage (scratches, puffs, etc.), has a dense pile (100% polyamide) and an elastic layer. It has the ability to stretch and instantly restore shape. The fabric is protected by a special coating against stains and dirt. Relax base is 65% polyester and 35% cotton.

Leather is a hygroscopic capillary-porous material, so the relative humidity of the room should not be less than 65-70%. To maintain the elasticity of the skin, it is necessary to lubricate (grease) the coating 1-2 times a year; for this, it is most optimal to use sponges soaked in stearin grease. To prevent premature fading and fading of the dye, it is advisable not to place the furniture in direct sunlight and intense light bulbs.
To remove dust deposits and dirt from the surface of the skin, an ordinary soft flannel rag soaked in ordinary water is used. If the dirt cannot be removed immediately, a mild soap solution (neutral soap) can be used.
Stains from medicinal tinctures, wine, various traces of felt-tip pens are removed with medical alcohol and a piece of cotton wool, followed by treatment with a stearin sponge. Various organic fatty spots are not terrible for the skin, as they eventually pass through the entire thickness of the skin.
After transporting furniture at low temperatures, it must be left packed in a warm room for at least 24 hours in order for the skin to restore its elasticity.
Strictly follow the rules for unloading furniture!
When exposed to low temperatures, the following occurs:
- Crystallization of moisture, which leads to loss of elasticity.
- Removal of moisture - the skin is "dry" and what is very important, this process is accompanied by "compression", i.e., a decrease in size.
If you act on “roughened”, frozen skin, then cracks may form at the points of impact (there is a violation of the integrity of the surface layer).

Everyone should rest, and at the same time, the opportunity to relax should be accompanied by appropriate conditions and convenience. Good beds should be not only comfortable, but also individual, depending on the characteristics of each individual person. It is on how the night's rest goes that the amount of energy and strength for the coming day depends.
Despite the many designs and style solutions, all beds have the same structure. The main components are the body and the mattress. Advantageously, the convenience depends on the second component. The mattress is divided into several specific parts. The outer shell is fabric upholstery, then the inner layers that give softness, and the last component is the springs necessary for the density of the structure. All of the factors described determine whether a person will feel comfortable in bed? Will he be able to fully rest?
There are many design options. The size varies depending on the number of places: single, one and a half and double. There are options for three beds. The frame material also varies, ranging from the most common chipboard to real wood or metal. The style, color shade, decorative elements and structure of the structure vary. All beds are different. No two options are identical. There are a huge number of options so that each person can choose their own individual model.
Everyone has the right to choose the option that he liked. However, regardless of which bed is preferred, it is very important to be able to properly care for this piece of furniture. Proper care can not only extend the service life, but also allows you to maintain the original appearance for quite a long time. Before you study the list of recommendations, it is worth starting with the instructions for use. It is included with every bed. No matter how trite it sounds, but there you can find a lot of practical advice that can be useful in life.
- After the furniture is delivered home, it must be freed from the film protection. If stored for a long time, condensation may form in the packaging. Polyethylene packaging leads to the fact that the surface of the bed and bed is covered with dampness, mold and may even begin to rot.
- As for the mattress, it must be constantly turned over. From the moment of purchase, this should be done at least once every two weeks, and over time, once a month will be enough. This will allow you to distribute the filler as evenly as possible, and at the same time the comfort of the bed will not be lost. Foam-based mattresses can not be turned over.
- It is strictly forbidden for children to play on the bed. Jumping and strong pressure risk not only deforming the structure of the mattress, but also leading to breakage of the frame structure. Of course, this will not happen immediately, but the result is inevitable.
- Furniture should always be kept clean. Wash stains on the mattress with soap and water as needed. It is necessary to wipe the frame from dust, vacuum the bottom of the bed from debris and never eat on it.
The most important thing is to remember that this piece of furniture, whatever it may be, is not just a functional detail. It is an investment on which everyone spends at least one-third of their lives. And it is important that the rest of life depends on it. With proper care and respect, the bed will serve you well, and for more than one year.
The quality of sleep depends not only on the correct selection of the necessary paraphernalia for a night's rest, but also on cleaning and caring for your bed. How to properly care for the bed? There are a number of useful tips that will help you avoid the extra expenses associated with buying a new bed. There is nothing complicated in them, so everyone can properly care for their bed.
How to take care of your bed
- Mattresses. When you plan your next bed linen wash, take care of the mattress as well. It must be knocked out and vacuumed well from all sides. It is better to use a special nozzle for upholstered furniture. Seams and edges can be brushed. The bottom of the mattress after vacuuming, wipe with a damp cloth. Be sure to let the mattress dry before placing it on the bed base.
- Feathers. If you are used to sleeping on a soft bed and prefer feather beds to orthopedic mattresses, get ready for the fact that they need to be aired outdoors for several hours on the balcony. It is strictly forbidden to vacuum the feather beds. They are cowardly and cleaned with a soft brush. If you haven't used a feather bed for a while, store it with your moth repellant, otherwise you'll have to buy a new one soon.
- Pillows. Today, the service "restoration of pillows" is quite popular. It is inexpensive and even home visits are possible. However, you can clean the feathers yourself. To do this, open the cover, put the feathers in a laundry bag and soak them for one hour in soapy water. It is done like this: 60% laundry soap (200 grams) is dissolved in warm water (5 liters), one teaspoon of ammonia is added.
- Blankets. Blanket cleaning is similar to feather bed cleaning. They must be shaken, cleaned with a soft brush and ventilated. In case of heavy soiling, it is better to take the blanket to dry cleaning.

Caring for a patient's bed is a very difficult task.
Below we describe some aspects of such care that can help health care workers in their daily work.
How to take care of the sick bed
It is worth remembering that oilcloth should be used in the patient's bed only in extreme cases: it contributes to the appearance of bedsores, being an obstacle to the evaporation of sweat. It is better to use other, so to speak, "breathing" products for bedridden patients. Nevertheless, in many cases it cannot be dispensed with, for example, when dealing with small children, with paralytics, with epileptics, or with patients who need complete immobility. In cases where the patient cannot be lifted frequently, the sheet and oilcloth should be attached to the mattress with large pins or in other ways: this eliminates folds and humps. The bottom and top sheets must be well stretched and tucked in, otherwise the bed will never be in order; if the blanket is too long, fold it under the mattress at the feet, or fold it in half at the feet, but never fold it in half at the patient's shoulders. The covered bed should present a level surface and, as far as possible, all beds in the room should have the same appearance. Under the patient's pillow there should be nothing but a handkerchief.
Adjusting pillows is an art, and it takes a lot of experience to put the patient comfortably on them and give him the opportunity to really rest. To do this, it is necessary to remove them all to one from the bed, fluff them up, put the least tight of them directly under the back of the patient and hold it firmly while the tighter pillows fit behind it. A down pillow is placed under the head. Care must be taken to ensure that there are no gaps anywhere, do not spare an extra pillow or remove one if it interferes: these patients are provided with the opportunity to spend a good night. It is advisable to have a sufficient number of spare pillows in order to be able to provide a quiet position for the big one. Make sure that children have pillows appropriate for their age and height.
Do not cover the legs of sick people, and especially children, with heavy blankets.
