Care Tips
How to Clean & Maintain Laminate Surfaces
Today, laminates are a preferred choice for furniture, flooring, and wall panelling across living rooms, bedrooms, kitchens, and even bathrooms. Available in a wide variety of colours and finishes. Laminates are affordable, durable, and more resistant to heat, impact, and stains compared to many traditional materials. However, regular care is essential to prevent wear and tear caused by daily use.
From furniture to flooring, laminates are among the most widely used materials in modern interior décor. To help you maintain their beauty and extend their lifespan, here are some essential care and cleaning tips for laminate surfaces.
General Care & Cleaning Tips
Protect the Surface
- Although laminates are durable, they can get scratched by sharp objects. Avoid using knives, sharp tools, or abrasive materials such as steel scrubbers on laminate surfaces.
- Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight may cause fading. Keep laminate furniture away from continuous sunlight to prevent discolouration.
- Excess moisture and dampness can damage laminates and lead to warping. Always protect laminate floors and furniture from standing water, even during cleaning.
Cleaning Laminate Floors
- Laminate floors should be cleaned regularly, as dirt and grit from footwear can make them look dull over time.
- Use a damp (not wet) microfiber mop for cleaning. Microfiber mops effectively remove dust while using minimal water, reducing the risk of warping.
- Avoid string mops and sponge mops, as they leave streaks and use excess water that can seep into joints and damage the flooring.
- Do not polish or wax laminate floors, as laminates are not natural wood and polishing can leave residue.
- Avoid strong chemical cleaners, bleach, steel wool, or scouring pads, as these can cause discolouration or scratches.
Cleaning Laminate Furniture & Panels
- Regular dusting with a soft, dry cloth is the best way to keep laminate furniture clean. A microfiber cloth or a vacuum cleaner with a soft-bristle attachment works well.
- Avoid wet wiping, as excess moisture can leave marks and cause the laminate to swell or warp.
- Fingerprints can usually be removed with a dry, soft cloth. For greasy marks, lightly dampen the cloth and dry the surface immediately after cleaning.
- For stubborn marks, use a soft sponge slightly dampened with water. Avoid varnish, wax, or polish on laminate furniture.
- When using any mild cleaning solution, never apply it directly to the surface. Spray the solution onto a cloth or mop and then wipe gently.
- Detergent-based cleaners may leave a dull film. Ensure that no water or cleaning solution is left on the surface for extended periods, as this can cause peeling.
Preventive Care
- Always use mats, coasters, and heat-resistant pads to protect laminate surfaces from stains, spills, and excess heat.
