Care & Cleaning

Thoughtful handling helps preserve the finish and small printed details of your Poieo piece.

Everyday care

  • Handle from sturdy areas rather than thin tips, small overhangs, or delicate decorative elements.
  • Keep pieces away from unnecessary heat, open flame, and prolonged direct sun unless the specific setup has been evaluated.
  • Store clean and dry, with enough space that parts are not pressed or bent.

Cleaning

  • Begin with a soft, dry cloth or a gentle brush to remove dust.
  • If needed, use a slightly damp cloth and mild soap, then dry thoroughly.
  • Avoid abrasive pads, strong solvents, acetone, harsh chemicals, and high-heat cleaning methods unless compatibility has been confirmed.
  • Do not assume cleaning makes a piece suitable for an animal, aquarium, terrarium, food-contact, or medical environment.

Before specialized placement

Inspect for cracks, loose parts, sharp damage, trapped moisture, or surface changes. Material/design print validation is not habitat-safety validation. For aquariums, terrariums, animal enclosures, or outdoor exposure, read Special Environments & Considerations and consult a qualified specialist.
