Our eyes are limited to a specific range of the electromagnetic spectrum, known as visible light. Anything outside this range is invisible to us, even though it may exist in reality. When it comes to upholstery, there are several things that our eyes can’t see due to their nature or size

Microorganisms: Upholstery can harbor various microscopic organisms, such as bacteria, fungi, and dust mites. These tiny creatures are invisible to the naked eye, but they can have an impact on indoor air quality and may cause allergic reactions in some individuals. Upholstery can trap allergens like pet dander, pollen, and dust particles. While we may see larger dust particles settling on the surface, the smaller allergens remain invisible. Chemicals and Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs): Some chemicals and VOCs from cleaning agents, fabrics, and other sources can be present in upholstery.

These compounds are often odorless and invisible, but they can affect indoor air quality and potentially have health implications. Residues: Stains and residues from spills or cleaning products may be present on upholstery but might not be immediately visible to the naked eye, especially if they are deeply embedded.
