However, they can still trap fine dirt in the fibres close to the surface. This may not be immediately apparent but, over time, this fine dirt could damage the fibres or, if mixed with water, cause a stain.
Regular vacuum cleaning is the most important step in preserving the fine appearance of your floor covering. Vacuum cleaners with power brush heads are the most effective at removing dirt from within the fibres.
Never steam clean your natural floor covering, in particular sisal or coir. Steam cleaning, or any other overall cleaning method that uses water, will saturate the natural fibres in your floor covering, causing sisal to shrink and coir to expand. Natural fibre floor coverings are not generally suitable for damp areas.
Over time, heavy furniture will create indentations in any carpet material. These indentations are superficial and do not affect wear. Using furniture caps and regularly moving heavy furniture can assist.
