Taking care of your TOLIX pieces, simply
TOLIX pieces are designed to stand the test of time and accompany everyday use. Simple maintenance, adapted to the materials, helps preserve their appearance, finish and durability without any particular constraints. This page guides you through the right practices according to the materials that make up your furniture.
Simple gestures, designed to last
Caring for TOLIX furniture is based on a few essential principles: favor gentle and regular cleaning, use simple and non-aggressive products, adapt your gestures to each material, and accompany the natural aging of surfaces. These recommendations help preserve the quality of the pieces while respecting their material.
Steel
Steel is at the heart of TOLIX craftsmanship. Each finish has specific properties that require adapted care.
L’acier peint bénéficie d’un traitement protecteur et décoratif par peinture poudre polymérisée à chaud.
Entretien recommandé
- chiffon doux sec ou humide
- eau et savon neutre pour les taches
- séchage soigneux après nettoyage
Précautions
- éviter les objets anguleux ou abrasifs (clés, bagues, vaisselle, etc.)
- éviter les produits agressifs ou abrasifs
En cas de rayure ou d’impact, une retouche rapide permet de limiter l’altération de la surface. Nous recommandons d’intervenir prioritairement sur les zones peu visibles.
Wood
Wood is a natural and living material. Its appearance can evolve over time depending on environment, light and humidity. These variations are part of its character.
Solid wood is characterised by its density, durability and uniform grain.
Recommended care
- dust regularly with a soft cloth
- clean with a slightly damp cloth if necessary
- dry immediately after cleaning
Precautions
- avoid prolonged exposure to moisture or heat
- avoid harsh products (alcohol, solvents, ammonia, chlorine, abrasives)
- remove stains quickly to prevent them from penetrating the wood
The colour and appearance of the wood may naturally evolve over time, particularly when exposed to light.
The open-pore stained finish protects the wood while allowing its natural grain to remain visible.
Recommended care
- dry or slightly damp cloth
- promptly remove liquids and fine dust
Precautions
-avoid excessive rubbing
- use only neutral detergents suitable for wood.
The finish may be slightly absorbent: regular care is recommended to preserve the surface appearance.
Other advice
Outdoor use and winter storage
TOLIX pieces intended for outdoor use are designed to withstand common weather conditions.
However, regular maintenance and a few simple precautions help extend their lifespan: cleaning before a period of non-use, drying after washing, storing in a dry and ventilated space whenever possible, using breathable covers.
Time is part of the object
Light scratches, color variations, signs of use: these changes bear witness to the life of the object. They are part of its authenticity and do not alter its solidity or functionality.
TOLIX pieces are designed to be used, maintained and, when necessary, repaired in order to extend their lifespan.
