Care instructions for Cordura products^®

Dirt and grime is not absent from duty and outdoor and recreational activities, so from time to time the equipment must be cleaned. Most of the ZENTAURON^® products are made of Cordura^®. As robust as the material is, it is worthwhile to promptly remove the dirt that has accumulated before it has worked its way into the material.

We recommend cleaning by hand, as washing machine cleaning is not so gentle to the fabric and can shorten its life.

Please do not use any harsh cleaning agents, as this will damage the fabric.

Cleaning by hand (recommended)

1. Remove the coarse dirt with a soft or medium-soft hand brush.
2. Wash off the dirt with lukewarm water up to 30 °C, using a hand brush if necessary. For heavier dirt, curd soap can improve the result.
3. We recommend that Cordura^® products be allowed to dry slowly and not be placed in the sun or on the heater.
4. When everything is completely dry, the product can still be sealed with textile waterproofing spray (spray should always be used outside).
5. For the zippers, we recommend using a special silicone-based care stick.

Washing machine cleaning

1. Remove all components that can be removed and then put the product in a laundry bag.
2. We recommend using a color liquid fine detergent for washing because, unlike dry powder, it does not form residues.
3. The washing temperature should not exceed 30 °C.
4. The spin cycle should be avoided, as it involves large forces that can damage the product.
5. We recommend that Cordura^® products be allowed to dry slowly and not be placed in the sun or on the heater.
