Frequently asked questions
How wide is Arrowroot and how is it sold?
Arrowroot is 122 cm wide and sold by the lineal metre from rolls of approximately 50 m.
What cleaning agents can be used on Arrowroot?
Clean with clear warm water first, then a mild liquid detergent solution if needed, or isopropyl alcohol for more persistent marks. A 10 per cent household bleach solution can be used for difficult stains; rinse thoroughly and pat dry. Avoid solvent-based cleaners, lacquer thinners, and concentrated abrasives, as these may cause discolouration over time. Always test in an inconspicuous area first.
What does the abrasion rating of 60,000+ double rubs indicate?
The 60,000+ double rub rating is an estimated figure from Wyzenbeek testing. This exceeds the general commercial upholstery threshold and indicates the fabric is suitable for moderate to high-use seating in commercial environments.
