FAQs
What material is the carpet runner made from?
The carpet runner is made from 70% Polypropylene (PP) and 30% Polyester (PES).
How do I clean the dirt trapper mat?
For coarse dirt, you can knock it off or vacuum it. For deeper soiling, use a damp sponge or cloth to clean the affected area.
Will the runner stay in place?
Yes, it features a non-slip gel backing that ensures good traction and prevents slipping on clean, dry surfaces.
Why is my new runner not perfectly flat?
The rug is roll-packed for shipping. Please allow 24-48 hours for it to become perfectly straight and flat after unrolling.
Is this runner suitable for outdoor use?
While it is designed to trap dirt and moisture from shoes, it is best used as an indoor entrance mat to prolong its lifespan and maintain its effectiveness.
What are the dimensions of this runner?
The dimensions are 100 cm in width and 100 cm in length.
What is the colour of the runner?
The colour of this specific model is Anthracite (Grey family).
Troubleshooting
Carpet runner is not lying flat.
The runner is shipped rolled. Unroll it completely and allow it to rest in a warm area for 24-48 hours to naturally flatten. You can also try placing heavy objects along the edges to help weigh it down.
Dirt is not being fully trapped.
Ensure the needle felt surface is not oversaturated with dirt or debris. Regular vacuuming or knocking off loose dirt will maintain its trapping efficiency.
Runner slips on the floor.
Verify that the floor beneath the runner is clean and dry. The gel backing provides traction on clean surfaces. If the backing appears dirty, wipe it gently with a damp cloth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup:
This carpet runner is roll-packed for convenient transportation. Upon receiving the product, unroll it completely and allow it to lie flat for a period (typically 24-48 hours) in a warm environment to help it regain its shape and lie perfectly flat. Ensure the area where the runner will be placed is clean and dry.
Compatibility:
Suitable for use on most indoor flooring types, including tile, laminate, wood, and carpet, thanks to its non-slip gel backing. It is designed for private and commercial use.
Care:
- Light Cleaning: For everyday dirt and dust, simply knock the mat outdoors or vacuum it thoroughly.
- Deeper Cleaning: For more significant soiling, use a damp sponge or cloth to gently clean the affected area. Avoid excessive water.
- Drying: Allow the runner to air dry completely before placing it back on the floor.
