Floor Care
Intro
Floor coverings are selected for many reasons including their colour, design, and sometimes specialist properties, such as static control or slip resistance. Without regular maintenance, dust and soiling would soon build up, making the colour and design indistinguishable and the specialist properties practically useless.
Dirt and soiling can also harbour bacteria, making the floor covering a health hazard e.g. in hospitals or food processing areas. Dust and grit underfoot can also act as an abrasive, which, if left uncontrolled, would shorten the life of a floor covering, resulting in premature replacement.
Regular and well planned maintenance keeps the floor covering in pristine condition and can enhance the original appearance. Maintenance can also reduce wear and ultimately improve the life expectancy of the floor covering.
