GFRC (glass fiber reinforced concrete) is a durable and resistant material,
which is often used for Elementi fireplaces and concrete furniture.
To ensure that your product remains beautiful and functional for many years, you should observe the following care instructions
.
General information
Clean your furniture regularly to prevent soiling and extend the
service life. For white GFRC surfaces, a water-based
paint coating is used, which is best used indoors or under a canopy
to prevent premature ageing.
Cleaning the surface
Please follow the steps below for correct cleaning:
1. wipe up spilled liquids such as coffee, juice or wine immediately.
2. dry the surface with a clean, dry cloth.
3. use warm water with a mild detergent for basic cleaning.
4 Remove dirt with a soft cloth or sponge.
5. wipe with clean water and dry thoroughly to avoid water stains.
6. regular cleaning extends the service life of the material.
Important warnings
To avoid damage, please observe the following instructions:
– Do not use oily or polishing cleaning agents.
– Do not use coarse brushes, abrasive sponges or sharp objects.
– Do not place food directly on the surface, always use plates or coasters.
– Do not place hot pots, pans or glasses directly on the stove.
– Do not push heavy objects over the surface.
Protection and storage
Cover the furniture with a protective cover when not in use to protect it from rain,
sun and dirt. In winter, we recommend storing it indoors.
Extreme cold should be avoided as this can lead to cracks.
Care with sealant
Treat the surface with a water-based sealant approximately every six months.
Clean the furniture thoroughly beforehand and apply the sealant evenly with a
soft cloth. Excess material should be removed after drying
.
With these care instructions for GFRC, your Elementi furniture will remain
stable, weatherproof and visually appealing for a long time.
