The life of a carpet depends on the material, the way it is made and the frequency with which it is walked on. Careful consideration of where to lay the carpet and how to use it will extend its life considerably.

The colours of most carpets will remain bright and vivid for years and will not fade under normal lighting. However, in brightly lit rooms the colours may fade slightly.

A quality underlay can extend the life of your carpet for years by protecting it from stains, impacts and cleaning. It also provides extra safety and is even better for acoustics.

During shipment, the pile can be compressed. This may cause the carpet to wrinkle, but the wrinkles and folds disappear after a few days.

Please contact your dealer immediately. He will use his professional knowledge to solve your problem.

Carpets get a lot of dirt, dust, sand, stains and footprints to cope with. Regular vacuuming with a good vacuum cleaner will keep the carpet nice and clean for longer.

Vacuuming once a week is sufficient to remove dust and dirt before it can settle in the piles of the carpet. It is best to empty the dust-bag of the vacuum cleaner when it is half full. Vacuum more often where you walk a lot.

• Place dirt-absorbent mats at the outer doors of your house. Replace or wash them when they become too dirty.
• Regularly change the filters of your heating or air-conditioning system.

• Spilled liquids can best be removed with a paper tissue or an absorbent cloth. Solid substances can be scooped up with the point of a knife or with a spoon.
• Treat stains with a product that can be used on carpets and is pH-neutral (with low acidity). Also make sure that the product does not leave a sticky residue.
• Use a light, colour-fast cotton cloth to remove stains. Always remove stains from the edge towards the middle; This avoids the stain becoming larger. Use only small quantities of the product to remove the stain. It is a good idea to replace the cleaning cloth as soon as it starts to get dirty.
• After polishing, you should moisten the treated strip with clean water, without using too much water. Dry it then as much as possible with a clean towel or a hair dryer. Clean the strips that are walked on a lot and the area for chairs and seats from time to time with an appropriate product.
• Do not use dirt-resistant products that contain silicone, as this will accelerate carpet soiling.
