After vacuuming debris away from leather, take the time to wipe the surface down and treat the material with a leather cream or oil. This simple step will help the leather to last longer.
Vacuum
Fix Loose Parts
Chairs can end up collecting a lot of grime, dirt and dust over time, which can damage a chair’s upholstery. Regularly vacuum-cleaning the chair will keep it feeling clean and fresh and increase its lifespan too.
Over time, some office chairs can have parts that start breaking or becoming loose, such as screws, bolts and levers. Make sure that parts do not go missing, and that any damage is fixed quickly.
Look After the Wheels
Take Care of Leather
The wheels of an office chair bear the brunt of the pressure that the chair faces and are also prone to collecting hair and dust. Keeping the wheels clean will stop them breaking or becoming loose. Lubricating the wheels every six months or so will also go a long way towards extending the life of the chair.
