An ode to maintenance
A little maintenance can prevent a lot of repair, refurbishment, and recycling. Discover how easy it is to keep your sofa like new.
An ode to maintenance: the forgotten step in sustainability
The R-ladder is a widely used tool in the circular economy. Among all those R-terms, there's never that one M-term: Maintenance. Yet it could hold an important place. Because with a little maintenance, a lot of Repair, Refurbish, Remanufacture, and Recycle can be prevented.
Cleaning your washing machine, oiling your bike chain, or descaling your kettle. Simple actions, instant satisfaction and you're being super sustainable. The same goes for furniture.
Vacuuming: the simplest way to protect your sofa
Did you know that your sofa's upholstery wears much more slowly when you vacuum it regularly? Sand, dust, and other small particles aren't always visible, but they grind against the fabric while you sit and unnecessarily wear down your precious upholstery.
Vacuuming weekly is therefore recommended. Use a soft brush attachment and set your vacuum to low suction.
Designed for easy maintenance: no glue, no staples
Kairos is a fan of good, accessible maintenance. Our sofas have been developed from day one with the idea that maintenance is an important pillar in a sustainable world. That's why we use velcro and zippers instead of glue and staples.
