To clean it, it is enough to use a soft cloth dampened with water and
neutral detergent like the one used to clear fences, or in general
neutral detergent. Only in case of persistent dirt, use a colourless
universal degreaser on a soft cloth, and rinse thoroughly.
Attention: avoid letting any liquid penetrate between top and
structure.

Keramik (laminated ceramic)
Cement
For a proper maintenance, please follow our instructions below:
surface cleaning and/or repairing operations, use only the
detergents and procedures as described below making little round
movements all over the surface.
PLEASE AVOID
• leaving uids in contact too long on the surface to prevent
permanent stains;
• blows or cuts with sharp objects on the surface, which could
damage the protective layer;
• placing particularly hot objects directly on the surface (pots,
braziers or grills etc.).
DO NOT USE
• alcohol, spot removers, thinners, acetone, trichloroethylene,
ammonia, bleach, limestone cleaner or any uid containing
these substances;
• abrasive products.
MAINTENANCE
To avoid spots and stains, the whole surface must be treated as
described below:
• for everyday cleaning, use a soft cloth damp with water;
• for a thorougher cleaning, use a soft cloth damp with a
colourless neutral glass cleanser;
• with persistent dirt, use a limestone-free non-abrasive neutral
detergent on a damp soft sponge. After cleaning, rinse the
entire surface with water with a well-wrung out cloth and dry it
with a dry soft cloth thoroughly.
SHARP AND/OR CUTTING OBJECTS
To prevent the surface from irreparable cuts or scratches, avoid
dragging any sharp object on the surface.
To clean it, it is enough to use a soft cloth dampened with water and
neutral detergent like the one used to clear fences, or in general
neutral detergent. Only in case of persistent dirt, use a colourless
universal degreaser on a soft cloth, and rinse thoroughly.
Attention: avoid letting any liquid penetrate between top and
structure.
Ceramic (porcelainized grès)
Diamond
Warning: extremely delicate surface. Carry out regular cleaning
using only a soft cloth and a little neutral detergent.
Only with persistent dirt, use a colourless ammonia-free liquid
detergent (like the ones for glass) and remove immediately the
traces with a dry cloth to avoid tarnishing or streaks.
PLEASE AVOID
• the use of granule detergents or similar, abrasive scourers,
aggressive products like ammonia, acetone and acidic
detergents;
• the use of scourers made of steel or other abrasive materials
that could scratch the surface;
• using sharp objects, that could scratch the surface and remove
the protective layer;
• dragging objects across the surface and do not concentrate
on one particular area when cleaning the top (this may alter its
matt effect);
• leaving liquids on the surface for a long time.
DO NOT USE
• any abrasive powder cleaner or detergent, that could alter the
surface;
• alcohol, stain removers, thinners, acetone, trichloroethylene,
ammonia, bleach, anti-limescale cleaners or any other uid
containing these substances;
• do not place any hot object, portable oven or stove on the
surface as these could cause deformations and yellowing.
MAINTENANCE
• use water with a little neutral soap and dry with a soft clean
cloth;
• use any neutral detergent that does not contain chlorine or
chlorine derivatives or compounds, like bleach or hydrochloric
acid.
