Features And Benefits of Chevron Floor Runners

These mats have durable polypropylene fibers that will maintain their height. They will also resist crushing, even when exposed to regular foot traffic and extensive soils. They work well in any space where visitors may be tracking in rain and snow from outdoors, as the bi-level poly fibers will catch the moisture from the soles of shoes and pull it to the base level of the mat.
These mats feature a vinyl backing layer on the underside of the mat. When moisture falls through, the vinyl layer catches it and prevents it from leaking onto the subfloor. This design feature protects the subfloor, and it reduces the chances of a potential slip and fall accident.
The back side of the vinyl provides anti-slip properties, meaning the mat will maintain its grip on the subfloor, no matter what size of mat is in use.
Regardless of the length and size selected, the mat will have a flat safety edge around all four sides. This reduces the possibility of a tripping hazard on the 3/8-inch thick mat, making it safer for visitors.

Maintenance & Care
Regular cleaning of these chevron mats will ensure their longevity and integrity. They can certainly endure a lot of abuse in busy foot traffic areas, and they should continue to look as close to new as possible with regular cleaning.Because the rugs’ bi-level design in the surface of the fibers works to catch dry soils and debris, a powerful vacuum will be required to lift and capture the soils from deep in the mat. Vacuuming once or twice per day should work well in high traffic areas, and in a home setting, vacuuming a door scraper mat once or twice per week should be adequate.
For thoroughly cleaning the carpet mat, a commercial carpet cleaning service could be employed to wash on a regular basis. The rugs have water resistant materials, so they can stand up to regular cleaning processes successfully.
Or, the mats can be cleaned at home or onsite by running a wet extractor over the top. Regular cleanings like this should help the mat maintain its original color better over time.
Whenever moving the ribbed entrance hall carpet mat for cleaning, be sure to clean the subfloor under the mat at the same time. The vinyl anti-slip backing should maintain its grip on the subfloor better if the subfloor is kept clean.
