  • Craftsmanship Uniqueness: Each part reflects the uniqueness of craftsmanship, ensuring a distinctive, high-quality surface.

Care and Maintenance of RiFRA's Cement Finish:

For proper maintenance of your hand troweled concrete kitchen, carefully follow these guidelines:

  1. Circular Movements: For cleaning and surface restoration operations, always act by making circular movements over the entire surface to avoid the formation of patches or stains.

  2. Soft Cloth with Water: For normal maintenance, use a soft cloth moistened with water.

  3. Neutral Glass Cleaner: For more thorough cleaning, use a soft cloth dampened with a neutral, non-colored glass cleaner.

  4. Consistent Dirt: If there is substantial dirt, use a soft sponge dampened with non-abrasive neutral detergent. Then, wash the surface with water on a well-wrung soft cloth and dry it completely with a dry soft cloth.

To Absolutely Avoid:

  • Retention of Liquids, Dirt and Stains: Avoid prolonged stagnation of liquids, dirt and stains to prevent the formation of persistent stains.

  • Bumps and Etches: Avoid blows and etches with blunt elements that could scratch the surface and remove the protective part.

  • Hot Objects: Do not place objects that are particularly hot and/or emit concentrated heat (pots, braziers, grills, etc.) on it.

  • Violent Cooking: Take special care in case of violent cooking methods, such as dropping hot liquids such as boiling oil on the top. It is advisable to protect the top with a cloth near the cooktop beforehand.

By carefully following these guidelines, you can maintain the beauty and durability of your RiFRA hand troweled concrete kitchen for many years to come. Our passion for craftsmanship is reflected not only in our production in Milan, but also in the care we take with every single detail of our furniture.

Best wishes,
