FAQs
What material is the tent carpet made of?
The tent carpet is made from 100% high-density polyethylene (HDPE).
Can I cut the carpet to a specific size?
Yes, the carpet has a cuttable design and can be easily cut to any desired size using sharp scissors or a utility knife.
Do I need anything else to secure the carpet?
Yes, the product requires compatible hooks for attachment, which are not included with the carpet.
How do I clean the carpet?
The carpet is easy to clean with water. You can rinse it off or use a mild soap and water solution for tougher stains, then rinse thoroughly.
Is the carpet suitable for outdoor use in the sun?
Yes, the HDPE material is UV resistant, making it safe from damage and discoloration caused by the sun.
What are the dimensions of the carpet?
The carpet measures 400 cm in width and 800 cm in length (W x L).
Is the carpet waterproof?
The material is weather-resistant and breathable. While it repels water effectively, its breathability means it's not entirely waterproof but designed to manage moisture.
Troubleshooting
Carpet won't lay flat
Ensure the carpet is fully unfolded and allowed to acclimatize to the ambient temperature for a while. Heavy objects or weights placed on the edges can also help flatten it.
Difficulty securing the carpet
Verify you are using appropriate and strong enough hooks for the surface. Ensure the eyelets are not obstructed and the hooks are properly inserted or attached.
Water pooling on the surface
While breathable, extreme downpours can lead to temporary pooling. Ensure the ground underneath is slightly sloped for drainage if possible. Periodically lifting edges can help water drain.
Carpet smells damp after use
Ensure the carpet is completely dry before storing. If stored damp, unfold and air dry thoroughly outdoors for at least 24 hours before re-storing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: To set up the carpet, first unfold it in the desired location. If necessary, cut the carpet to the required size using sharp scissors or a utility knife. For securing the carpet, use compatible hooks (not included) through the integrated eyelets. Ensure the hooks are suitable for the surface you are attaching them to (e.g., ground pegs for grass, clips for awning poles).
Compatibility: This product requires separate purchase of compatible hooks for secure attachment. The effectiveness of securing the carpet depends on the type and quality of the hooks used. Consider the combined length of the hooks and the carpet when determining coverage and stability needs.
Care: Cleaning the tent carpet is straightforward. Use a hose or bucket of water to rinse off dirt and debris. For tougher stains, a mild soap and water solution can be used, followed by a thorough rinse. Allow the carpet to air dry completely before folding or storing to prevent mildew.
