Care instructions for Polku carpet

Regular vacuum cleaning and airing is sufficient for keeping the carpet free from dust and dirt. In the beginning it is possible that some fluff peels off the rug. This can be removed by vacuum cleaning or brushing.

Possible stains or fluid spilt on the carpet should be immediately removed by try cloth or tissue paper, before absorbed into the carpet. Thereafter the stains can be wiped off by a damp cloth (do not rub). Use water rather than stain removers. Firm dirt can be rubbed out delicately using a knife to remove most of the stain. Blot immediately with a cloth.

Use professional carpet cleaners. Professional dry cleaning or flat wash with subsequent pressing through cylinders. Only flat drying.
