MAINTENANCE TIPS

WMF DESIGN – WINNER OF MULTIPLE AWARDS

WMF cutlery items made of Cromargan® or Cromargan protect® are particularly easy to clean and, unlike most conventional cutlery items, are dishwasher-safe in accordance with RAL-RG 604. Only cutlery items that have undergone a uniform, standardised test procedure and withstood 1,000 washing cycles undamaged are permitted to bear this label. We recommend always using a brand name detergent. Use the following maintenance tips for your cutlery to ensure it retains its flaw- less appearance for as long as possible. Rinse your cutlery after use to remove most food remains and do not wait too long before washing. Cutlery should not be left to soak or in a damp environment. When cleaning the items in the dish- washer, place them unsorted in the basket with the handles downwards. Remove your cutlery from the dishwasher as soon as possible after the rinse cycle has fin- ished and dry by hand if necessary. If this isn’t possible, leave the dishwasher door open so that the steam can escape and no moisture accumulates. In rare cases, signs of rust may appear on the cutlery. This is generally extraneous rust, which is transferred from other non-stainless surfaces. If caught early, it can be easily removed with WMF Purargan® polish. If it is not treated, pitting may occur.

It is the design that makes WMF cutlery so special. WMF offers a wide range of different styles and wants every customer to find the right model to fit their tastes and personal lifestyle. This is why WMF is continuously developing its cutlery range. The product development team keeps a close eye on lifestyle trends in various cultures around the world and works together with international designers. This way, it can recognise changes in people’s tastes early on and design cut- lery models to fit the times. That is the secret behind our success, which is repeatedly confirmed by the various international design awards.

WMF Kineo With the new WMF Kineo cutlery, every meal is transformed into a visual experience.

Thanks to the patented Cromargan protect® surface finish, WMF Kineo is also extremely resist- ant to scratches and signs of everyday use and retains its immaculate beauty for years.

HOW MUCH CUTLERY DOES A PERSON NEED?

A person’s cutlery requirements depend on their individual lifestyle, how many people live in the household, how often they eat at home and how frequently they entertain guests. Households that enjoy cooking and eating together find that the cutlery drawer quickly becomes empty! Cutlery is sold in sets for 6 or 12 people, which contain either 6 or 12 sets of cutlery pieces as well as teaspoons and cake forks. You need more than just a knife, fork and spoon when serving a menu with several courses. For some models, WMF not only offers place settings but also specific cutlery pieces for starters, fish, dessert, coffee or espresso. And if you value fine dining, you can add matching serving pieces. The 66-piece cutlery set also includes salad servers, serving spoons, soup ladles, serving forks and cake servers.

WMF Sentic Enjoyment with all your senses: The new WMF Sentic cutlery creates unforgettable moments of indulgence with its visual sophistication and sensual feel. This cutlery is an absolute eye-catcher on every laid table and provides great accents with its special, diamond-shaped surface structure. Featuring the patented Cromargan protect® surface finishing for outstanding resistance to scratches and signs of daily use, WMF Sentic stays a permanently beautiful, durable piece of jewellery and becomes a glamorous companion for special occasions and in everyday life.

Service programme Cutlery models that are no longer in the current range continue to be produced for a certain time and can still be ordered for up to two years.
