15.1 Leather is a product after cowhide tanning. Leather products have the natural attributes of the skin. Sunlight and heat sources will make it dry after a period of time and cannot renew and repair itself.

Ultraviolet rays and daily light will gradually lighten the color of the sofa (especially aniline leather/oil wax leather).

In daily use and the friction of our clothes under the combined action of air humidity, a kind of “fine dust” will be generated to block leather pores. 

Contamination in daily use, such as traces of food and beverages, etc.

Therefore, when leather products are sold, buyers should provide customers with professional cleaning and maintenance guidelines and recommended professional products that have been tested and suitable for the leather.

15.2 Sunlight and other light sources can cause the leather to change color. Avoid exposing the furniture to the sun, other light sources or strong halogen light sources.

15.3 Avoid pets claws or other sharp objects from damaging the leather sofa.

15.4 The best storage temperature of indoor leather sofas is 10-30 degrees, and the humidity is 45-55%. Excessive temperature and humidity may cause damage to leather products, regardless of the quality of the leather.

15.6 For domestic furniture, professional cleaning and maintenance 2-4 times a year can maintain the appearance and service life of leather products and avoid premature fading. For contract furniture, a suitable cleaning and maintenance program should be put in place.

15.1 真皮为牛皮鞣制后的产品，真皮制品拥有皮肤的自然属性，阳光和热源会使其在一段时间后变得干燥，且无法自我更新修复，

紫外线和日常光照会使得沙发上的颜色逐渐变浅（特别是苯胺革/油蜡皮革）。

在日常使用以及我们的衣物的摩擦在空气湿度的一并作用下，会生成一种“微尘土”阻塞皮革毛孔。

日常使用中的污染，如：食物饮料的痕迹等。

因此，真皮产品在销售时必须为客户提供专业的清洁保养指南和建议使用的经过测试的适合本皮革的专业产品，如果客户没有遵守专业的清洁保养指南或只用自己选择的未经过专业测试的产品，出现的问题，与我方皮革品质无关。，每年2-4次专业的清洁与养护可以维持皮革产品的外观和使用寿命以及避免提前褪色。

15.4室内皮革沙发的存放温度为21-28度，湿度为45-55%， 过高的温度和湿度都可能引起皮革产品的损坏，与皮革品质无关。

15.5 皮革产品的存放要远离热源，至少30 厘米以上，并保存空气流通。
