The children’s rugs do not have adhesive on the back. The design of these rugs allows customers to bring them to the usage location and return them to storage afterward.

Some customers choose to leave the rugs always available in a certain area of a classroom or a daycare, giving the kids a comfortable place to sit while reading.

Cleaning and Maintenance Requirements

Vacuum the rugs and carpet tiles as needed. For a more thorough cleaning process, you can use a carpet cleaning machine or a hot water extraction machine. Then allow the carpeting to air dry for a few hours.

If you choose to make use of a spot cleaning substance to treat certain areas of the rugs or carpet squares after a spill, the manufacturer recommends testing the cleaning solution on a small, unnoticeable area of the carpet to ensure it won’t damage the colors or fibers.
