Entrance mats are used to capture dirt, not to disperse it throughout the building. When storing them in the spring, it is essential to clean them properly. Adequate maintenance allows the carpets to be preserved and reused the following winter.
Here are the 5 steps for a thorough cleaning
2. CLEAN THE CARPET
Using an extractor, clean the carpet using one of the following two cleaners:
- Neutrac HC (3438) : 8 mL per litre of water
- Neutrac Auto (3439) : 12 to 25 mL per litre of water
Rinse well.

4. CLEAN THE GLUE
To hold mats in place, sometimes they need to be secured with tape.
To remove traces of glue, spray TAG-OUT ready-to-use cleaner directly on the glue residue, let the product work and rinse thoroughly.
5. PREVENTION OF BAD ODORS
To prevent unpleasant odours, spray BIO-DOR undiluted over the entire surface of the carpet. Allow drying before storing.
