One of the many advantages of Kährs Luxury Tiles floors is that they are durable and easy to care for. We’ve gathered some valuable tips and advice for simple care and maintenance to help you keep your new floor looking as beautiful and fresh as possible for years to come.
85% of all dirt comes from outside. Preventing it from getting inside by using, for example, a quality doormat, extends the lifetime of your floor. Vacuum often so that gravel and other potentially damaging materials don’t remain.
Dragging furniture can scrape even the toughest of floors. Using furniture pads and similar protectors for chair-, sofa- and table legs is an effective way to prevent scrapes and wear.
Naturally, vinyl floors in light colours will show dirt sooner compared with dark floors. We therefore advise that you clean them more often in order to maintain that fresh look.
For daily cleaning, both dry and slightly damp mops are effective, while gentle on the floor’s protective layer. Remember to first vacuum up the larger dirt particles before mopping to avoid unnecessary wear on your floor. For tougher grime, a pH-neutral cleaning solution may be added.
