FAQs
Are these tiles suitable for a bathroom?
These tiles are designed for dry internal environments and are not recommended for wet areas like bathrooms where they would be exposed to excessive moisture.
Can I use these tiles in a commercial kitchen?
While they have good stain and bacteria resistance, they are rated for light commercial use. Heavy commercial kitchens with constant spills and intense foot traffic may require more specialized flooring.
How do I clean deep-set dirt?
For deep-set dirt, a professional carpet cleaning service using appropriate methods for loop pile carpets is recommended. Alternatively, a carpet cleaning machine with a mild detergent can be used, ensuring not to oversaturate the tiles.
What is the expected lifespan of these tiles?
In busy domestic areas, these tiles are expected to last many years due to their durable construction and resistance properties. Lifespan in light commercial settings will vary based on traffic levels.
Can I mix and match these tiles with other carpet tiles?
It is generally recommended to use tiles from the same batch and product line to ensure color and texture consistency. Mixing can lead to noticeable differences.
Are these tiles easy to cut?
Yes, the tiles can be cut with a sharp utility knife. Ensure you use a straight edge and measure carefully for precise cuts.
Troubleshooting
Tiles appear uneven after installation
Ensure the subfloor was perfectly level and clean before laying. Re-adhere any loose edges or use a heavier roller to press down the tiles if adhesive is still wet.
Stains are difficult to remove
Blot spills immediately. For persistent stains, use a small amount of mild detergent mixed with water and a clean cloth. Avoid harsh scrubbing that could damage the fibers.
Fraying edges observed
This tile is designed to be non-fraying. If fraying occurs, it may indicate the tile was cut incorrectly or subjected to excessive force. Trim any loose fibers carefully with sharp scissors.
Color variation between tiles
Ensure tiles were laid in the same direction and sourced from the same batch. If significant variation exists, contact the retailer.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
These carpet tiles are designed for straightforward installation. Ensure the subfloor is clean, dry, and level before laying. Tiles can be cut to fit around obstacles or edges using a sharp utility knife. It is recommended to lay tiles in a consistent direction for a uniform appearance. For best results, adhere to manufacturer guidelines regarding adhesive or tape usage, especially in high-traffic areas.
Compatibility:
Suitable for use with underfloor heating systems (check specific temperature limits). Compatible with most standard flooring adhesives. Designed for dry internal environments.
Care:
Regular vacuuming is recommended to remove surface dust and debris. For spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild detergent solution and a damp cloth, working from the outside of the stain inwards. Avoid excessive moisture. Due to bleach resistance, minor spills can be tackled, but prolonged or concentrated exposure should still be avoided.
