Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this runner suitable for outdoor use?

This runner is primarily designed for indoor events. While it is durable, prolonged exposure to outdoor elements like rain and direct sunlight can degrade the material and backing.

How thick is the pile?

The runner features a plush 9mm pile, offering a soft and comfortable feel underfoot.

Can I cut this runner to a custom size?

While the material can be cut, doing so may affect the integrity of the edges and the backing. It is not recommended to cut the runner, as this can cause fraying and potential loss of warranty. Custom sizes are available from the manufacturer.

What does 'Heavy Domestic' classification mean?

This classification indicates that the carpet runner is designed and tested to withstand regular foot traffic in a home environment, making it suitable for areas like hallways, landings, and kitchens, and by extension, event spaces.

How do I prevent the runner from moving?

For added security, especially on smooth surfaces or in high-traffic areas, consider using double-sided carpet tape along the edges of the runner to secure it to the floor.

Is the black color prone to showing dust easily?

While any dark color can show dust more readily than lighter shades, the plush pile helps to trap dust. Regular vacuuming will keep it looking its best.

What is the backing made of?

The runner has a natural jute hessian backing, which provides strength and stability.

Troubleshooting

Runner won't lay flat

Ensure the runner has been fully unrolled and allowed to rest for at least 24 hours in a warm room to relax the fibers. Use heavy objects on the edges temporarily, or consider using double-sided carpet tape along the edges.

Visible stains that won't lift

Use a mild bleach solution (diluted according to product instructions) applied carefully with a cloth to the stained area. Test in an inconspicuous spot first. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and blot dry immediately.

Runner appears worn in high-traffic areas

Rotate the runner if possible for events of longer duration. Regular vacuuming without harsh brushes and prompt stain removal will help maintain its appearance.

Jute backing feels damp

Ensure the environment where the runner is placed is well-ventilated and dry. Remove the runner and allow both the runner and the floor beneath it to dry completely before re-laying. Avoid using in excessively humid conditions without proper airflow.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Offers a simple, elegant aesthetic for weddings and events.
  • Durable construction suitable for high-traffic areas.
  • Easy to clean, including being bleach cleanable for tough stains.
  • Resistant to fading, static, and moths, ensuring longevity.
  • Provides a comfortable and plush feel underfoot.

Cons

  • Primarily designed for event use, not everyday flooring.
  • Width of 200cm may be too wide for some narrower aisles.
  • Requires specific cleaning methods for stains; general care still needed.
  • Jute backing may not be suitable for very damp environments without protection.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Unroll the runner carefully, allowing it to lay flat in the desired location.
  2. Ensure the area is clean and dry before placement.
  3. Position the runner to align with the aisle edges. For very long aisles, consider using double-sided carpet tape sparingly on the underside edges to secure it, especially in high-traffic areas or if there's a risk of tripping.

Compatibility:

  • This runner is best suited for indoor event spaces.
  • It is compatible with most hard floor surfaces such as wood, tile, and concrete.
  • While it can be used in conservatories and some kitchens due to its stain resistance, it is not designed as a permanent flooring solution for these areas.
  • Ensure the surface underneath is level and dry to prevent the runner from shifting or damaging the underlying floor.

Care:

  • Regular Cleaning: Vacuum regularly using a standard vacuum cleaner without a rotating brush on the highest setting to avoid damaging the pile.
  • Spot Cleaning: For spills, immediately blot the area with a clean, dry cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild detergent solution or a bleach-based cleaner, testing on an inconspicuous area first. Rinse the spot with clean water and blot dry.
  • Deep Cleaning: For overall cleaning, professional carpet cleaning is recommended. Avoid steam cleaning or excessive moisture, as this can affect the jute backing.
  • Storage: Store rolled up in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading and damage.
