Remove dust once a week using a vacuum cleaner and/or a damp cloth. Clean the leather at least twice a year using a mild cleaning agent and then impregnate the leather using a leather care cream. This protects the leather against stains, provides it with nutrients and ensures it remains smooth. Attempt to remove any emer-gent stains and fresh blemishes immediately using a leather-cleaning agent. The PURO Vintage leathers may only be treated with the care products from LCK that have been specially developed for these leathers.

Leather strength
1,8 - 2 mmThe leathers in our range are available in thicknesses between 1.0 and 2.5 millimetres. That sounds like just a fine difference, but the effect of this wafer-thin difference actually has an enormous impact. Thicker leather gives furniture a more solid, tougher, more heavier impression. We therefore recommend it above all for models with large leather surfaces. Thinner leather is recommended for fine furniture and furniture with distinct seams.

Tanning
Mineral tanning (chrome)Mineral tanning (chrome tanning) is the most common method of tanning leather. About 80 per cent of all the leather tanned worldwide is tanned using chrome, which is obtained from chromium ore. Only trivalent chromium salts are used for tannage that are of no risk to health and that pollute as little as the vegetal tannage.

Lightfastness
3Lightfastness is the ability of a cover to withstand solar radiation. The scale ranges from 1 to 8, with 8 being the highest and best light fastness. The higher the lightfastness, the better the leather will withstand the sun's rays without losing colour. As a rule of thumb, however, you should not place your furniture in direct sunlight. Some leather fade faster than others, which can be seen from the light fastness.
