FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the non-slip backing?

The non-slip latex gel backing provides enhanced safety by preventing the runner from shifting or bunching up, especially important on stairs. It also eliminates the need for separate gripper strips or underlay.

Is this runner suitable for bathrooms or damp areas?

While the gel backing is waterproof and rot-proof, the carpet material itself is not intended for constant exposure to high humidity or water. It is best suited for dry, high-traffic areas like staircases and hallways.

How do I clean spills on the runner?

Blot up spills immediately with a clean, damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution. Avoid using harsh chemicals or excessive water, and allow the area to air dry fully.

Can I cut this runner to a custom size myself?

The runner is professionally finished to exact sizes. While it is durable, cutting it yourself may compromise the edges and the integrity of the backing, potentially leading to fraying.

What does 'heavy domestic' classification mean?

This classification indicates that the carpet is designed and tested to withstand significant wear and tear in a residential setting, making it ideal for areas like staircases, hallways, and busy living rooms.

Is the runner resistant to fading from sunlight?

Yes, the 100% Polyamide material is fade-resistant to UV sunlight, meaning it will maintain its color even when exposed to direct light over time.

What safety standards does this runner comply with?

It has a low radius of ignition and is hot nut tested to comply with BS 4790, ensuring it meets relevant fire safety standards for domestic use.

Troubleshooting

Runner slips after installation

Ensure the floor surface was clean and dry before installation. Reapply adhesive or check the grip of the latex backing. If staples or rods are used, ensure they are properly secured.

Fraying edges

This is uncommon with professionally finished edges. If fraying occurs, check for any snags or damage. Contact customer support if the issue persists.

Stains are difficult to remove

Blot the stain immediately. Use a mild detergent mixed with water and gently clean the area. Avoid excessive moisture and allow to air dry completely. Do not use bleach.

Runner does not lay flat

Allow the runner to acclimatize to room temperature for 24-48 hours. Ensure it is placed on a flat, stable surface. You may need to re-secure the edges if it's lifting.

  • Meets fire safety standards.

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This runner is designed for straightforward installation. The integrated non-slip latex gel backing adheres securely to most floor surfaces, allowing for direct fitting. You can install it using appropriate adhesive, staples, or stair rods. Gripper and underlay are not required, simplifying the process. Ensure the surface beneath the runner is clean and dry before application.

Compatibility: The runner is compatible with most standard staircase and flooring types. The non-slip backing ensures stability on surfaces like wood, laminate, and tile. It can be professionally finished to your exact size requirements.

Care: To maintain its appearance, vacuum regularly. For spills, blot the area immediately with a clean, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the fibers and backing. Due to its stain-resistant properties, most common household spills can be cleaned effectively.
