Melimeli material guide

Not sure which material fits your décor best? Here comes a guide where you can read about our different materials.

We are proud to present our various materials that are developed in a sustainable way, in factories where the staff are well disposed of and who are supposed to last a lifetime if the material is treated correctly.

In the tanks of velvet: 

Melimeli's Velvet is a soft and luxurious material in 100% cotton from Italy. The velvet measures a Martindale on 100.000 in unity and is thereby incredibly durable. Important to remember, however, is that velvet is sensitive to water, so avoid washing the fabric with a wet cloth. If liquid is spilled on the velvet, it will not sink into the fabric directly, but fold on top of it as a film. Velvet can absorb dust and the best way to remove this is by vacuuming the fabric with a soft brush at regular intervals. A roller or a clothes brush can also be used to easily spruce up the velvet fabric. If a pressure mark has arisen on your product, the steam from a steam iron or a steamer can be used to smooth the fabric.

In the thoughts of linen
MeliMeli's linen is a linen mix from Italy consisting of 28% cotton 21% flax and 51% viscose. The linen is made of natural fiber and is thus a living material that changes and becomes more beautiful over time. To maintain the quality of the linen, we only recommend dry cleaning on our linen furniture. If liquid is spilled on your linen furniture, wipe it up with a dry cloth. If a stain occurs, use a wet wipe to remove the dirt.

In the mind of viscose
MeliMelis rug NICO rug is made of 100% viscose. To maintain the quality of the rug, we recommend that you vacuum it from time to time to remove dust, excess material and dirt. When the rug is new, it may shed, but this will disappear over time.

If liquid is spilled on the carpet, wipe it up with a dry cloth and then strike the carpet in the direction of the pile. If a stain occurs, use a stain remover suitable for viscose rugs. In case of severe stains are recommended dry cleaning, then our viscose rugs do not tear water wash. We also recommend that you use carpet mats and rotate the carpet sometimes for even wear.

In the mind of teddy
Our teddy material has a material composition of 80% acrylic and 20% polyester which together form a soft and fine off-white fabric. To maintain the quality of the teddy material, we only recommend dry cleaning our teddy products. If liquid is spilled on the product, wipe it up with a dry cloth. If there is a stain, use a wet wipe to remove the dirt.
