Frequently Asked Questions - FAQs
Clarify your doubts about Fabric Waterproofing
Service
Does the protection treatment change the color or texture of the product?
No. The product does not alter the touch, color, shine or original finish of the product.
Can the protection treatment be applied to old fabrics?

Is the protection treatment toxic?
No. The formula is non-toxic, free from PFOS and PFOA, and safe for children, adults and pets.
A impermeabilização pode ser aplicada em tecidos danificados?
Não é recomendada. Rasgos, desgaste extremo ou fibras partidas não são corrigidos pelo tratamento.
Time and Drying
How long does the treatment take?
The process is quick and usually completed within 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the size of the item.
Can I use the sofa on the same day?
Yes, as long as the fabric is dry to the touch. However, it is recommended to avoid spills during the first 72 hours.
How long does it take to dry?
Initial drying occurs within a few hours, but full effectiveness is only reached after 72 hours.
Logistics
Is the protection treatment carried out at home?
Yes. The service is performed directly at your home.
Which areas do you cover?
We provide services across Mainland Portugal and also operate in several Spanish cities, including Madrid, Toledo, Valencia, Murcia and Vigo.
Do I need to prepare the space?
Only ensure access to the item and remove personal belongings. The team protects the surrounding area.
How long does the protection last?
Durability depends on use, friction and cleaning. On average, the treatment remains effective between 6 and 12 months.
Does the service come with a guarantee?
If any issue arises after cleaning, the situation will be assessed to find the best solution.
How can I schedule a home cleaning?
You can schedule your home cleaning directly through our website or, if you prefer, contact Biomex to arrange the most convenient date and time with our team.

Result
Does the protection treatment protect against difficult stains?
Yes. It provides maximum protection against stains, except for substances excluded from the warranty (acids, urine, inks, corrosive products).
Does the protection treatment help prevent yellowing caused by sunlight?
Yes. The treatment helps protect fabrics against yellowing caused by UV rays.
Does the protection treatment improve resistance to wear?
Yes. The treatment reinforces the fibers, making the fabric more resistant to daily wear.
Does the protection treatment make cleaning easier?
Yes. Since liquids no longer penetrate the fabric easily, cleaning becomes much easier and more effective.
Does the protection treatment help fabrics maintain their appearance for longer?
Yes. The fabric keeps its original appearance for longer, helping to prevent stains and premature wear.
Does the treatment remove odors?
No. Its purpose is to prevent liquid and dirt absorption, not to remove existing smells.
Does it protect against mold?
It helps prevent superficial moisture absorption but does not solve structural humidity problems.
What happens if a liquid stays on the fabric for too long?
The treatment delays absorption but does not completely prevent it. The faster the spill is cleaned, the better the result.
Does the treatment prevent all stains?
No. It does not guarantee 100% protection, but it drastically reduces the chance of permanent stains, especially if spills are cleaned immediately.
Does it protect against ink or pen stains?
No. Ink and markers penetrate fibers quickly and are not blocked by the treatment.
Price
Is the quote free?
Yes, we provide a free, no‑obligation quote.
Is cleaning included with the protection treatment?
No. Cleaning is a separate complementary service.
Are there travel costs?
No. Travel is included in the final price.
How much does sofa or chair protection cost?
