Take off removable details and do up Velcro and zip fastenings before washing. Wash nylon tights and delicate garments with details in a laundry bag.

Chunky-knits should be reshaped and dried flat to maintain the original shape, which is why these garments are additionally labelled “Dry flat”.

Linen is a natural material and can easily get mis-shapen when wet. To restore the garment to its original shape, iron it with a hot steam iron. To keep its sheen, iron the garment on the reverse side.

Viscose is an artificial fiber from cellulose and can easily get mis-shapen when wet. To restore the garment easily to its original shape, iron it with a steam iron.

Silk is a very delicate material and should be treated with care. Use a detergent for delicates when washing silk and do not stretch the garment while wet.

Often, airing woollen garments is enough. Use a detergent for delicates when you do wash them. Use the wool or hand wash cycle on your washing machine or wash by hand. Iron after washing to restore the natural sheen.

Wash jeans inside out to reduce fade. Remove them from the washing machine as soon as possible after the programme has ended to avoid creasing. Denim’s characteristic appearance is the result of a special dyeing method. As a result, small pigment particles may remain on the surface and can rub off.

Leather and suede garments should be taken to a leather specialist for cleaning. Follow the care instructions.
Shoe polish and/or waterproofing spray should be applied to leather shoes and bags. This simple measure will improve their protection against water, extending the life of your shoes/bag and making them more capable of withstanding dirt. Just use waterproofing spray for suede and nubuck, not polish. Try not to wear your suede/nubuck shoes or carry your suede/nubuck bag if it is raining or very damp out, because this could cause staining on the product and the dye in the product could rub off onto your belongings more easily. Insert shoe trees to keep your shoes in shape, and use a shoe horn to protect the highbacks/heels of your shoes when you put them on. Undo your laces and buckles when taking your shoes off and putting them on.

Place tennis balls in the tumble dryer when drying down garments to distribute the down evenly. The down must be dried completely.

Rainwear should drip-dry. If you dry them in a drying cabinet, do so at a low temperature. Follow the care instructions.

 <li>Don't wash clothes unnecessary Don’t wash clothes that are not dirty. Often, airing and brushing clothes is enough.</li> 
 <li>Lower the washing temperature H&amp;M always labels its garments with the highest permitted temperature. But you can select a lower washing temperature to save energy. Most detergents wash just as well at lower temperatures. Washing at 40°C uses around half as much energy as washing at 60°C. H&amp;M recommends that heavily soiled clothes and underwear are always washed at the highest temperature allowed. Do not wash your clothes at temperatures hotter than those stated in the care instructions.</li> 
 <li>Fill your washing machine Sort the clothes by colour and washing temperature. Fill up your washing machine, but don’t stuff too much in. A washing machine is full when you can place a clenched fist on top of the washing without compressing the clothes. Use an energy saving programme – most modern washing machines have one.</li> 
 <li>Choose a more eco-friendly laundry detergent Use a more environmentally friendly detergent that is free from optical whiteners and phosphates, since these have a negative environmental impact when released into nature. Dose the detergent as stated on the packaging. Overdosing detergent will not make your clothes cleaner. To get the dose right, you need to know whether you have hard or soft water. Avoid fabric conditioners, although H&amp;M recommends that acrylic garments are washed with fabric conditioner to counter static electricity in the garment after washing.</li> 
 <li>Avoid dry cleaning Dry cleaning is a process in which the clothes are cleaned using an organic solvent. Dry cleaning has a negative environmental impact when the solvent is released into nature. A small proportion of H&amp;M’s garments are dry clean only, because they contain details or materials than could change colour or become misshapen by washing at home. Today, there are also greener methods of dry cleaning that clean the clothes using only carbon dioxide reclaimed from industry. This type of dry cleaning.</li> 
 <li>Leave your washing out to dry It is preferable to leave your washing out to dry since tumble drying and drying cabinets use a lot of energy. To reduce drying time, gentle cycle the clothes well before taking them out of the washing machine.</li>

One rule goes for every stain: the quicker removal the better. ​Read more about how to remove stains on textiles, leather, metal and wood under each category in the menu. Always try out the cleaning method on a non-visible spot of your furniture before using it on the stain.&nbsp;

​Textiles are widely used as upholstery on seating products. A bit of love and care will keep them fresh and make them last longer.&nbsp;
Always follow the care instructions on the label. Remove any spillage or spots immediately.
We suggest vacuum cleaning your furniture regularly to avoid dust and dirt building up. Use a clean vacuum cleaner nozzle and the lowest setting.
Removable covers can be washed with a detergent suitable for the fabric and colour of your upholstery.
Non-removable textile covers need to be cleaned with a clean and dry cloth or brush if nothing else is stated. Make sure that the brush or cloth does not leave colour or fibres on the surface. Always use low pressure.&nbsp;
Textiles with pile and raised surfaces, like velour and chenille, are extra sensitive to pressure. Run the brush or cloth very gently over the surface, making sure you move in the direction of the pile. You can find the pile direction by running your hand over the fabric; the smoothest direction is the pile direction. Work through all surfaces of your piece to create an even look of the pile after the procedure.

Use a method and product suitable for the fabric quality and type of stain. Always test your product on a non-visible area and let it dry to see the result before moving on with the actual stain removal.

Leather comes in various qualities and treatments, all with specific aesthetics and needs for care. Some have been treated to become more robust and suitable for daily use, while others are left untreated to allow the beautiful material variations to show. Good care will help the leather remain in good condition for years to come. Being a natural material, it will get a unique patina from use.
Always follow the care instruction enclosed with the product.&nbsp;
Avoid leaving leather in direct sunlight and close to sources of heat as it is sensitive to heat and light.
Vacuum clean with a soft and clean brush regularly to keep dust and dirt from building up.&nbsp;
Cleaning with a dry cloth: Use a soft, clean and dry cloth that will not leave stains or fibres, and gently clean the leather surface.
Cleaning with a damp cloth: If your care instruction recommends cleaning the leather with a damp cloth, use lukewarm water and remove all excess water from the cloth before you start.&nbsp;
Leather scratches easily. Keeping sharp objects and metals away from the surface will help your product stay neat and nice for many years.

Immediately remove spillage or spots — the quicker removal, the easier to get a good result. Water left on leather may leave watermarks, so it’s always good to swiftly wipe off the surface with a soft and dry, white and clean cloth after an accident.
Adjust cleaning method based on the type of leather and stain. For more severe stains, please turn to a leather specialist for guidance.

Many leather qualities benefit from regular treatment. Use a product well suited for the intended use and leather in your product. Follow the manufacturer’s recommendation on how to apply and dry the treatment.&nbsp;
Regular care will protect the leather from water and stains.&nbsp;

&nbsp;​We use various metals with different surface coatings and finishes to build our collection, each having its own characteristics. They all benefit from some love and care. Keeping metal surfaces dry and clean will extend the lifespan of your furniture.&nbsp;
Always follow the care instruction given on the product.
Use protective pads under legs, stands or base to lessen tear on floors and furniture.
Sharp and rough materials and edges will likely leave marks or scratches on your metal surface. Using good protection pads under items placed on the metal will keep your furniture in much better shape over time.&nbsp;
Add a soft brush to your vacuum cleaner and give the metal surface a gentle cleaning now and then to avoid dust and dirt building up.&nbsp;
Using a soft cloth or brush that does not leave colour, marks or fibres on the surface will also work well.
Cleaning with a dry cloth: Use a dry, clean and soft cloth and wipe gently to avoid leaving marks on the surface.&nbsp;
Cleaning with a damp cloth: Some of our metal products may be cleaned with a damp cloth. Avoid strong cleaning agents and go for lukewarm, soapy water when needed. Always remove excess water from the cloth before use, and gently dry the surface with a soft cloth afterwards.

Remove any spillage or stains immediately with a gentle motion. Rubbing or using sharp objects to remove spots might leave marks. ​

Our furniture collection is designed using different wood species, all with distinct characteristics. To further enhance the look and durability of the product, oil, dye, wax, lacquer and other surface treatments are often applied.
The colour of many wood species will alter somewhat from daily use and light exposure. This adds patina over the years and will give your wooden product a specific charm when taken care of properly.
Always follow the care instruction given for your individual piece and remove spillage immediately to prevent staining.&nbsp;
Use protective pads under legs, stands or base to lessen tear on floors and furniture.
Regular and gentle vacuum cleaning with a soft brush nozzle will keep the product in better shape and prevent dust and dirt from building up.
Cleaning with a dry cloth: Use a dry, clean and soft cloth or sponge that leaves no colour or fibre, and wipe gently to avoid leaving marks on the surface.&nbsp;
Cleaning with a damp cloth: Avoid strong cleaning agents and go for lukewarm water only. Always remove excess water from the cloth before use, and gently dry the surface with a soft cloth afterwards.
Regular care will enhance the look of your piece and allow the surface to become more stain-proof and water-resistant. Remember to treat all surfaces of the product to keep the different parts looking the same throughout the years.&nbsp;

When applying surface treatments for care or refresh, choose a product that matches the wood species and colour wanted. Only apply surface treatments that are intended for the finish and material used in your furniture. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions on how to apply and dry. Remember to keep any surface clean and free from dust before applying the treatment. We recommend using solvent-free products.
If light sanding or polishing is recommended for stain removal purposes or before adding treatment, always try the method in a non-visible area first. Polish only with a fine-grade sanding sponge or fine-grit sandpaper. Please consult your local supplier for help.

Choose a treatment designed to meet the requirements for indoor or outdoor use, depending on what the product is designed for. ​We recommend wood for outdoor use to get at least one or two treatments every season to enhance the durability against sun and weather.&nbsp;
