On & On

Care + Maintenance

Emeco_group of On and On chairs and stools in recycled plastic

Frames and seats in recycled PET
Slight variations in color are natural to this recycled material. Emeco’s lightly textured finish will reduce the appearance of scratches.

Daily cleaning:
Use Windex® or similar spray cleaner, with or without bleach followed by a soft, lint free towel. Wash any film or residue with hot water. Rinse with clean water, using a clean, nonabrasive cotton cloth. Dry the surface with a soft, clean, non-abrasive cotton cloth. Hydrogen peroxide-based cleaners may also be used, dilution level 1:10. Wash any film or residue with hot water.

Normal maintenance and light scratches:
Lemon Pledge or Armorall® (generically: spray wax with silicone) or Isopropyl Alcohol. Rinse with clean water, using a clean, non-abrasive cotton cloth. Dry the surface with a soft, clean, non-abrasive cotton cloth.

Abrasive pads, scouring powders or cleaners may permanently dull and scratch the rPET surface making it susceptible to staining. Never use cleaners containing acid, alkali, or concentrated sodium hypochlorite. These cleaners may mar, etch, corrode, and permanently discolor the surface.

Seats in plywood:
Clean with mild soap and water and dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners.

Take care not to expose the wood to extremes in temperature or humidity. Wet surfaces should be dried immediately. Wood changes color over time under normal conditions of light exposure, but do not expose directly to sunlight and heat.

Upholstered seats:
For seats with upholstery, please refer to the fabric/material supplier's care advice. Emeco's standard upholstery offering for the On & On collection is:

Leather: Spinneybeck Acqua or Volo (depending on color)
Leather alternative: Maharam Ledger
Wool fabric: Kvadrat Steelcut Trio


Glides:
Glides are the small "feet" at the bottom of each chair leg. Adding new glides - and making sure you have the right type of glides for your floor - can make the world of difference and breathe new life into your product. Learn more
