Alcantara is an exclusive material that offers a unique sense of luxury. To preserve its soft texture and elegant look over time, it’s important to know how to care for it properly. The good news is you can do this with simple products you already have at home.
Daily cleaning – use a dry microfiber cloth
A soft microfiber cloth is perfect for removing dust, fingerprints, and light dirt from the surface. Wipe gently in circular motions to refresh the material.
Light stain removal – lukewarm water and mild soap
For small stains, dampen a cloth with lukewarm water and add a drop of mild soap (like hand soap or dish soap without harsh chemicals). Gently rub the stain, then wipe with a clean damp cloth to remove any soap residue.
Tougher stains – use a soft brush
For more stubborn marks, a soft toothbrush or clothing brush can help. Dip it in lukewarm soapy water and carefully brush the area in small motions. This lifts dirt from the fibers without damaging the material.
Avoid harsh cleaners
Skip products with alcohol, bleach, or strong chemicals, as they can dry out or damage Alcantara’s microfibers. Stick to mild household products.
Refresh the material regularly
Over time, Alcantara may appear slightly flat in areas of heavy use. To restore its look, gently brush with a dry soft brush or go over it with a dry microfiber cloth. This brings back its signature suede-like appearance.
