Care & Maintenance of a Pinatex - Pineapple leather product

Piñatex is a leather alternative made from cellulose fibres extracted from pineapple leaves, PLA (polylactic acid), and petroleum-based resin.

How to keep your Piñatex-product in optimal shape?

/ 1 Clean your product thoroughly and effectively using a cloth soaked in warm soapy water. If your item is heavily soiled, you can rinse with lukewarm ater but never fully submerge the product as this may cause irreversible damage.

/ 2 Let your item dry before any application is made and refrain from using a heat source to dry more quickly, as this could cause damage.

/ 3 We recommend using a natural colourless wax for your #MadeFromPiñatex products. Apply a small amount to a dry, soft cloth and rub sparingly over the textile in a circular motion until fully absorbed. Do not use too much wax as it may not fully absorb.

/ 4 Leave your item to try naturally for 24 hours after application.

/ 5 You can also buff the way off with a dry cloth or soft brush.
