Product Information

Full details

This hardwearing, anti-slip stair runner is designed for busy, high-traffic homes seeking a durable and low-maintenance flooring solution. Its key benefit is exceptional resilience due to a tight loop-pile construction and a secure gel latex backing. A potential caveat for pet owners is that the loop pile can be susceptible to snagging from pet claws. Key features include its durable polyamide construction, heavy domestic wear rating, waterproof and stain-resistant properties, and anti-slip backing.

FAQs

Is this runner suitable for pets?

While durable, the loop pile construction can be susceptible to snagging from pet claws. If you have pets that frequently scratch or play on the carpet, a cut or twist pile carpet might be a better option to avoid snags.

Do I need underlay or gripper rods?

No, the gel latex backing provides a non-slip grip and can be fitted directly to stairs without underlay or gripper rods. However, you can still use them if preferred for added cushioning or a traditional fit.

How do I clean this stair runner?

Regular vacuuming is recommended. For spills, blot the area immediately with a damp cloth. Its stain-resistant properties help in removing most common household stains. Avoid harsh chemicals.

What does 'Heavy Domestic wear rating' mean?

This rating indicates the runner is designed and tested to withstand high levels of foot traffic in all domestic locations, making it particularly suitable for busy staircases.

Is the runner waterproof?

Yes, the gel latex backing makes the runner 100% waterproof and rot proof, meaning spillages will not cause the product to shrink or degrade.

Can I get this runner in custom sizes?

Yes, this product is professionally finished to the exact size you order, ensuring a precise fit for your stairs.

What is the material of the runner?

The runner is made from 100% Polyamide, a durable man-made fiber known for its strength, stain resistance, and fade resistance.

Troubleshooting

Runner is slipping despite anti-slip backing.

Ensure the stairs are clean and dry before installation. Consider using carpet adhesive or a stronger fixing method if the surface is particularly smooth.

Pile appears flattened in high-traffic areas.

Vacuum the runner regularly. The loop pile is designed to be resilient; persistent flattening might indicate extreme wear beyond its intended Heavy Domestic rating or potential snags.

Snags or pulls in the loop pile.

This is more common with pets. Trim any snagged loops carefully with scissors, being cautious not to cut into the backing. Avoid this type of pile if pets frequently scratch or snag carpets.

Stains are difficult to remove.

Address spills immediately. For stubborn stains, use a mild detergent and water solution, blotting gently. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

This runner can be fitted directly to stairs using adhesive, staples, or stair rods. For maximum security, consider using carpet adhesive or staples. While underlay and gripper rods are not strictly necessary due to the anti-slip backing, they can still be used for additional cushioning or a more traditional installation.

Compatibility:

The gel latex backing ensures secure grip on most standard flooring surfaces. It is designed for use on staircases and is suitable for high-traffic domestic areas.

Care:

To maintain the runner's appearance, vacuum regularly. For spills, blot the affected area immediately with a clean, damp cloth. Due to its stain-resistant properties, most common household stains can be effectively removed. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners. Ensure the runner is kept dry to benefit from its waterproof properties.
