Easy Care for Your Broadloom Carpet
Thanks to the special Berclon® fibre, dirt and dust do not easily penetrate the carpet. With proper care, your carpet will stay clean and last for many years.
Prevention
Use doormats at entrances to reduce dirt. Darker carpets also tend to hide stains better than lighter shades.
Regular Maintenance
Vacuum your carpet from the first day of use. A vacuum with rotating brushes gives better cleaning results. Remove surface stains as soon as possible with a suitable carpet cleaner, and always follow the product instructions.
Deep Cleaning
To maintain the appearance and durability of your carpet, professional cleaning is recommended on a regular basis.

Important: Never pour cleaning liquid directly onto the carpet.

Remove as much of the stain as possible first. Then use the correct cleaning method with a clean cloth and blot gently until the stain lifts. Rinse with clean water where needed, and allow the area to dry fully before walking on it.
Additional Treatment
If a mark still remains, a mild bleach solution of 50% water and 50% bleach may be used with care. Rinse thoroughly with clean water after treatment. Once the area is fully dry, vacuum the carpet again.
