Care and cleaning info can be found here, it takes a while to load so be patient.
Alcantara
From Wiki.
Alcantara is composed of about 68% polyester and 32% polyurethane giving increased durability and stain resistance. The appearance and tactile feel of the material is similar to that of suede, and it may be incorrectly identified as such.
Some versions are designated as flame retardent in order to meet certain fire standards for both furnishings and automobile applications.The material is virtually identical on both sides, making it somewhat reversible.
Alcantara has applications including furniture,clothing, jewelry, helmets and automotive (such as in seating, dash trimming and headliners in many high-end OEM automotive suppliers). Alcantara is being used currently as a flame retardant driver seat covering material for Formula One race cars, including the Williams Formula One 2011 FW33 car.
