Travel bags are indispensable companions, whether for an impromptu weekend away or for longer journeys. But with time and frequent travel, your travel bags can suffer visible damage: dirt, wear and tear, loss of shine... Regular maintenance of these accessories is essential to keep them looking good and working well.
At Tilli, our Makers specialise in the cleaning and care of leather, fabric and synthetic bags. Thanks to their expertise, your bags not only look good again, but also last longer, so you don't have to replace them prematurely. When you call on our services, you can be sure of meticulous, high-quality work, carried out by passionate artisans with an eye for detail.
Travel bags are subject to a great deal of wear and tear: knocks, rubbing, dust and other residues from travelling. While basic care can sometimes be enough for small everyday tasks, professional cleaning by our Makers guarantees in-depth treatment that respects the specific characteristics of each bag.
Protecting and restoring the material
Travel bags, whether made of leather, fabric or synthetic materials, require specific care to prevent premature wear and maintain their shine. Our Makers know how to adapt techniques and products to each type of material, using gentle cleaners and tailor-made treatments.
For leather bags, for example, simply removing surface stains is not enough. Unkempt leather quickly becomes stiff and can crack. The experts at Tilli take care to moisturise the leather to keep it supple, while restoring it to its original shine. For fabric bags, too aggressive a cleaning could damage the fibres. That's why our Makers use gentle techniques that respect the structure of the fabric while removing deep-seated dirt.
A Deep Clean, Tailored to Each Bag
Every bag is unique and has specific needs. That's why at Tilli we don't offer a standard solution, but rather a personalised cleaning that takes into account the particularities of each accessory. Our Makers assess the overall condition of the bag and choose the most suitable products and methods.
In the case of synthetic travel bags, regular cleaning is often essential to prevent the formation of stains. Our experts know how to handle these materials to remove residues without compromising the integrity of the bag. Our Makers also focus on details such as zips, handles and stitching to ensure that every part of your bag is optimally cared for.
Preventing wear and tear and extending life.
There's more to our services than just surface cleaning. At Tilli, we take a preventative approach by anticipating wear and tear on your bag. Using their expertise, our Makers carefully examine areas that are likely to become damaged over time (such as corners, handles, or zips) and apply treatments to help protect them.
Travel bags are often subjected to heavy loads, repeated rubbing and intensive handling. Our treatments reinforce sensitive areas to ensure that your bag remains strong and functional even after many trips.
Restore and Repair
As well as cleaning, our Makers are also able to carry out repairs on your travel bags. Whether it's a broken zip, a damaged handle, or a fraying seam, we restore every element of your bag so it's as functional as it was on day one. This also includes repairing any holes or tears that may appear over time.
By entrusting your bags to Tilli, you benefit from the expertise of our Makers who can repair, nourish and restore your travel accessories, while guaranteeing quality workmanship.
At Tilli, we work with all types of materials, whether leather, canvas or synthetics. Each material requires special attention, and it's this expertise that our Makers put to good use to achieve the best possible result.
Leather Bag Care
Leather bags require special care to prevent cracking and preserve their suppleness. Leather is a living material that will deteriorate if not properly cared for. Tilli artisans apply leather nourishing products and use polishing techniques that revive the shine while strengthening its resistance to water and stains.
We also carry out anti-stain treatments to preserve your bag for future trips and apply nourishing oils or creams to ensure that the leather loses neither suppleness nor durability.
Care for Fabric Bags
Fabric travel bags, while often lighter, are also more prone to getting dirty quickly. Our Makers use techniques adapted to different types of fabric: cotton, linen, or technical materials. After a thorough cleaning, they also apply a waterproofing treatment to ensure that your bag remains protected from the elements on your next trip.
Care for Synthetic Bags
Bags made from synthetic materials, such as nylon or polyester, are generally more resistant but can suffer from gradual wear and tear. Our Makers ensure that dirt is effectively removed, while applying a treatment that protects against future aggressions such as rain or accidental stains.
Travel bag cleaning requires specific knowledge and professional expertise to ensure that the materials are respected and the results last. When you call on Tilli Makers, you choose a personalised service, tailored to each bag, for impeccable results.
