General advice

Protect newly laid floors
All newly laid floors should be covered and protected from all other trades during the contract with a suitable non-staining protective covering. Use protective feet on chairs and tables to reduce scratching. Castor wheels should be of soft material suitable for resilient floor coverings (according to EN425)

Use Entrance Systems
As much as 80% of dirt entering a building is brought in by foot traffic. Entrance flooring systems of an appropriate size (ideally more than 6lm) and quality should be used.

Forbo Coral or Nuway entrance flooring systems, are independently proven to remove and retain up to 94% of all dirt and moisture entering a building by foot traffic; reducing maintenance costs and maximising appearance retention of adjacent flooring products as well as reducing slip risk.

As with any dirt removal system all entrance flooring systems should be regularly cleaned to release the dirt which has been removed.

Cleaning
• Regular cleaning is more beneficial and cost effective than occasional deep cleaning.
• Use recommended cleaning products. High quality cleaning products and equipment ensure efficient maintenance and represent only a small proportion of maintenance costs.
• Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for cleaning products.
• Always follow the Health and Safety guidance provided.

Proper use of Floor Care Chemicals
The improper use of cleaning chemicals may cause damage and/or discolouration. Overuse or inadequate rinsing of cleaning chemicals may compromise the performance of the floor.
Abrasive powders or cleansers should not be used.

Recommended Floor care products
It is impractical for us to monitor all cleaning solutions and there are many suppliers available. For more information on Cleaning & Maintenance products please contact our UK partner Wrennalls T: 01772 435 739. Other floor care products may be used on Forbo resilient floor coverings. If alternative products are to be used, consult with your regular supplier for more information and guidance.
