FAQs

Is this runner suitable for outdoor use?

While the runner is UV-resistant and waterproof, it is designed for indoor use, particularly in high-traffic areas within the home. Prolonged exposure to direct outdoor elements may affect its longevity.

Can I cut this runner to a custom size?

The runner is not designed to be cut. Cutting may fray the edges and compromise the integrity of the backing, potentially affecting its anti-slip properties.

How often should I vacuum the runner?

For best results and to maintain its appearance, vacuum the runner regularly, ideally once or twice a week, depending on foot traffic.

What is the thickness of the runner?

The runner has a thickness of 7.2mm, providing a comfortable yet durable surface.

Will the backing leave marks on my floor?

The latex gel backing is designed to be safe for hard floors and is waterproof and rot-proof. However, it is always recommended to test on an inconspicuous area if you have concerns about your specific flooring type.

Is this runner suitable for a bathroom?

The runner is waterproof and rot-proof, making it suitable for areas prone to moisture like kitchens. However, for bathrooms, ensure adequate ventilation and that the runner is placed on a non-slip surface as recommended.

What does 'heavy domestic' classification mean?

The 'heavy domestic' classification indicates that the runner is suitable for all domestic locations, including areas with very high foot traffic such as hallways, stairs, and landings.

Troubleshooting

Runner moves slightly on hard floor

Ensure the hard floor surface is clean and dry before laying the runner. The latex gel backing may require occasional cleaning (damp cloth) to restore maximum grip.

Runner has creases from packaging

Lay the runner flat in a warm room for several hours. Gentle warming with a hairdryer on a low setting from a distance may help, followed by pressing it flat.

Spills have stained the runner

Blot the spill immediately with a clean, absorbent cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild detergent mixed with water and a soft brush, then rinse thoroughly with a damp cloth and allow to dry completely.

Reduced grip on carpet underlay

This is expected as the underlay's texture can interfere with the latex backing. Ensure the runner is placed as flat as possible and consider using furniture or heavy items to keep edges in place if significant movement occurs.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely durable and resistant to damage, even with pets and children.
  • Anti-slip backing provides excellent stability on hard floors.
  • Waterproof and rot-proof backing protects flooring underneath.
  • Low maintenance, stain-resistant, and easy to clean.
  • Resistant to UV fading, static, and moths.
  • Suitable for various high-traffic domestic areas.

Cons

  • Anti-slip effectiveness on carpet underlay may decrease with thicker underlay.
  • Primarily designed for hard floors; performance on carpet is less guaranteed.
  • Limited aesthetic variety due to its functional construction.
  • Available widths are limited to 60cm and 80cm.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Unroll the runner and lay it flat in your desired location. Allow it a short period to settle, especially if it has been rolled for shipping.

Compatibility: The anti-slip latex gel backing is designed to work best on hard flooring surfaces such as wood, vinyl, laminate, or ceramic tiles. It can provide some grip on carpet, but its effectiveness may be reduced on very thick carpets.

Care: This runner is low-maintenance. For regular cleaning, vacuum thoroughly. For spills, blot immediately with a clean, damp cloth and mild detergent if necessary. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning tools, as these can damage the material and backing.
