Description
Sobor
The robustness of Sobor, provides to the user a journey back through time, bringing to the table the classic style where the strength of the pieces was synonymous of quality and simultaneously the elaborate designs were the result of manual work of dedicated engravers.
With a soft touch, ergonomic handle and a balanced swing, every piece of this model was designed based on the typical Portuguese Manueline style, and produced in stainless steel AISI 420 and 430.
MANUAL CLEANING
• After used, each piece of cutlery should be washed as soon as possible to avoid a long contact
with food waste or scraps.
• Use hot water, light detergent and a soft sponge.
Abrasive sponge/clothes should be avoided, as they might promote irreversibly scratches and or
coating lost.
• After washing, always rinse and dry the flatware immediately with a soft cloth.
DISHWASHER
Washing the items immediately after use is highly recommended, removing all the food waste and
as well as rinsing them before placing inside the machine.
• Use only quality proven detergents with a maximum of 10% phosphates.
• Do not load too many pieces of cutlery in each basket, to avoid as much clash between them as
possible during the whole washing cycle.
• Make sure all knives are placed together in the same basket with blades up and separated from
the remaining pieces of cutlery. Spoons and forks should be also placed in the baskets with the
handles facing down.
• Never mix in the dishwasher, cutlery in stainless steel with items from other metals.
• It’s highly recommended that each washing process is made under 60ºC.
• Once the dishwasher has completed the washing cycle, it’s strongly recommended to remove all
the cutlery pieces immediately, cleaning them with a soft cloth, especially the knives.
STORAGE
Cutlery should always be stored in a dry place, and locals that promote as less contact between
them as possible. Storing the pieces without cleaning/drying them, or even in humid places, can
promote the appearance of spots in the products.
STAINS REMOVAL
Stains can be removed from pieces mirror or mat polished placing them immersed for fifteen
minutes in hot water solution with citric acid. This solution should be prepared with a tablespoon
of citric acid per liter of water. Citric acid may be bought at any fine pharmacies or grocery dealer.
PVD
Technology of decorative coating by PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) consists on a thin ceramic high
adhesion coating, with controlled thickness between 0.5 and 1.5 microns, deposited by highly ionized
plasma in a high vacuum chamber under a nonpolluting process.
• Anti allergic: Protection of direct human contact with the substrate, preventing allergic reactions to
different components, such as nickel.
• Biocompatible, significantly reducing bacterial adhesion and proliferation.
• Resistance to wear and corrosion, increasing the lifetime of the items, being expected that usage marks to
appear, as well as the density of the coating/color change according to the care/usage.
All items coated with PVD should be washed by machine and never with a sponge or abrasive cloth.
