NEST XOREL
Description
Xorel is a technologically advanced and environmentally sound problem-solving woven textile which enables a wide range of design possibilities to be realized. All the high-performance characteristics of Xorel emanate from the yarn. Simply put, nothing is added to the woven product to enhance performance, no finishes, no coatings.
A unique design approach that marries technology, craft, and textile experimentation, Xorel delivers beautiful performance for workplaces, hospitals, hotels, schools, and beyond. Made from the rapidly renewable sugarcane plant, Biobased Xorel generates a significantly reduced carbon footprint compared to fossil-fuel-based products.

Care Instructions
- Xorel yarns are non-absorbent; dust and stains cannot penetrate them.
- Regular maintenance will keep the fabric looking new for many years. Periodic vacuuming will remove dust that may settle between the yarns.
- Most stains that dry between the yarns or on the surface can be eliminated by wiping the fabric with a cloth moistened with hot tap water. Some stains may require additional treatment. These stains can be cleaned with a variety of water or solvent-based cleaners.
- When using solvent-based cleaners on paperbacked Xorel fabric, test on a small area first. Residue from these cleaners must be removed with hot water and a clean sponge. After cleaning, towel dry.
- Hardened solids can be removed with a stiff brush or a sharp-edged instrument without damaging the fabric. However, the brush or sharp instrument should not be used close to seams.
- Hospital-grade disinfectant cleaners can be safely used on Xorel fabrics. Always follow the directions for the specific brand being used as contact times may vary depending on the product. Diluted bleach solution (up to 40%) can also be used on Xorel for disinfecting purposes.
- Always test in an inconspicuous area first. If care instructions don't deliver the expected results, cease cleaning method immediately and contact Baresque for assistance.
