Care Guide

HAY’s 13Eighty chair designed by Dutch designers Scholten
& Baijings is aptly named after the number of tiny holes in
the moulded polypropylene shell. These perforations create
a characteristic aesthetic, where transparency and a play of
light and shadows add to the chair’s expression, while the
variations in the sizes of the holes bring a sense of movement
to the visual appearance. They also have a functional use in
draining rainwater off when the chairs are used outdoors.
Available with or without armrests in a stackable design that
features steel legs with a weather-resistant coating to make it
suitable for outdoor use.

CAUTION
With a little care you can prolong
the life of your furniture. Follow
the instructions for the materials
of your specific product to make
sure that it stays in the best shape
for as long as possible.*
− Always remove stains quickly before they can do any
permanent damage to the furniture.
− When you move your furniture, make sure you lift it
rather than pulling or pushing it to avoid damaging the
floor, legs and mountings.
− Avoid improper use such as sitting on the back or
armrests, tilting the seats on their back legs, putting
your feet on the furniture or standing on it.
*The information below is only intended as a general guideline. For
more information on how to remove specific stains, please enquire
where you bought the furniture.

− Be careful not to scratch or damage the surface with
sharp objects.
− Check the status of the gliders frequently and if worn
down, contact your local retailer to buy replacements.
The durability of the gliders will depend on the surface
the chair is placed on.
− Minor spots of rust on the steel base are considered a
natural result of general use.
− Direct placement on a seafront can lead to corrosion.
− Wipe off bird droppings quickly as they may lead to
permanent corrosion or staining.
− Wipe off the furniture if it is dirty or wet as this will
damage the surface over time.
− Take care not to scratch the chairs against each other
when stacking them. Do not move or drag the chairs
around when stacked as the weight will damage the
legs.

CARE GUIDE
Plastic / polypropylene
Wipe with a clean cloth wrung in water or in a solution of water
and a neutral detergent. Remove soap residue immediately
using a clean, dry cloth. Avoid using scouring cream or
scouring pads, as they may scratch the surface. Do not use
cleaning products containing alcohol, as they may damage
the surface.
Powder coated outdoor steel
Wipe with a clean cloth wrung in water or in a solution of water
and a neutral detergent. Remove soap residue immediately
using a clean, dry cloth. Avoid using scouring cream or
scouring pads, as they may scratch the surface. In the event
of lime deposits on the surface, use a clean, damp cloth
wrung in lukewarm water with one part vinegar to nine parts
water and avoid scrubbing as this may scratch the surface.
Storage
The life expectancy of your furniture will vary depending on
the weather and type of use. We recommend that you store it
in a dry, ventilated place during winter and keep it protected
from scratches and bumps.
