Cleaning, Maintenance & Recycle
Of course you want to enjoy your Tropilex product as long as possible. That's why we advise you to store it dry in
autumn/winter and protect it from extreme weather.
Shorter than specified specifications?
Don't panic: the hammock will stretch. A Colombian
hammock will stretch 5-10% by default.
Your Colombian product is made by hand, small
differences in size are possible anyway.
Leave the hammock outside?
Tropilex products can handle rain. This is partly due
to the mix of polyester and cotton. If the hammock
gets wet once, this is not a problem, but when not in
use, we advise you to store the product dry.
Be aware that the sun will fade the colors of the
canvas. On sunny days, this can happen quickly.
How to storage your hammock?
Make sure the cloth is not damp when you store it.
Always store the hammock in a dry place and make
sure the mice cannot reach it.

Cleaning
We recommend always washing Tropilex hammocks
and hanging chairs by hand.
Tropilex products can be washed in the washing
machine if it has a hand wash programme and a
maximum temperature of 30 degrees. This is on your
own responsibility. We recommend the use of a
laundry bag. It is best to tie the attachment cords
together so that they do not get entangled. A pillow
must be taken out of the cover in advance.
Always let it dry by air: do not use a tumble dryer!
Hammocks with a spreading bar cannot be washed in
the washing machine because of the attached
spreader bar.
Recycle
Please recycle all packaging material. The hammock
can be 100% recycled. Simply bring it to a clothing
collection point. They will turn it into new materials.

them or get loosen.
Inspect the hammock for wear and friction damage to
the surface of the ropes and any connectors. Never use
a damaged hammock.
Always sit in the middle of the hammock before you
slowly lay down. Never sit down at the edges because
the weight must be distributed equally.
You will be most comfortable lying diagonally in a the
