General Safety Instructions

  • Highly Flammable
    Our fabrics are not flame retardant and are therefore flammable. Always keep them away from open flames, sparks, ignition sources, and hot surfaces. Not suitable for safety or protective clothing.
  • Risk of Injury
    When cutting and sewing, there is a risk of injury from sharp cutting tools, needles, or sewing machines. Use tools carefully.
  • Choking Hazard
    Small fabric scraps, threads, or fibers can be swallowed. Keep these strictly away from the mouth and nose – especially for children under 3 years old.
  • Strangulation Hazard
    Never let children play unsupervised with fabric panels or ribbons to avoid the risk of strangulation.
  • Color Variations
    Please note that colors may vary slightly from the original due to screen display or printing technology.

Processing instructions

  • Use appropriate tools
    Use sharp fabric shears or rotary cutters and suitable sewing machine needles for clean cuts and optimal results.
  • Avoid tensile stress
    Excessive tensile force can lead to permanent deformation, tears, or fabric damage.
  • Prevent creasing
    Store fabrics flat or rolled and not under pressure for extended periods to avoid permanent creases or waves.
  • Be aware of color transfer
    Strong colors may bleed onto lighter fabrics during the first few washes. Wash separately.
  • Safety requirements for baby and toy products
    When used for toys or crib accessories, the requirements of the Toy Directive 2009/48/EC must be observed and checked.

    Wash the fabric before the first use to remove excess dyes or production residues.

    Use mild detergents, gentle wash cycles, and avoid harsh chemicals.
  • Lint & pilling
    Slight lint or pilling is material-related and can be reduced with gentle care.
