How To Clean And Preserve Vinyl Back Coir Matting?

Coir matting is both attractive and eco-chic. It imparts a warm tropical charm and antique sophistication to business interiors. In addition, coir matting is adaptable, so you are not limited to utilizing it only in your entryway! Use it as an entry mat, of course, but you can also use it as a wall-to-wall area mat, in recessed wells, and as stair runners; they lend themselves well to all of these applications. Additionally, you can have custom logo rugs, which is another incentive to use them in your commercial locations.

The majority of coir matting for commercial areas is backed with vinyl, which helps to preserve its shape, increases its durability, and makes it simple to clean. As with any other type of matting, coco matting needs proper maintenance to survive for a long time and maintain its attractive appearance. This article discusses the care and maintenance of coco mats with a vinyl backing.

 

Regularly

Remove all dirt and debris from the mat by vacuuming it with a commercial-grade vacuum (recommended: motorized head with brushes). This is the most effective technique to preserve the beauty and performance of the mats over time, and it must be done frequently.

A slow vacuum pass, as opposed to many fast runs, will yield the best results since the brushes will have ample time to spin through the surface of the coir fiber, allowing them to properly remove dirt and debris.

 

Regular Sanitization

For intermediate cleaning, an absorbent powder is suggested. The powder has a carrier that contains a solvent and detergent so that oil and water residues may be absorbed by the powder.

Spread the powder over the mat so that it may absorb any dirt or moisture from the mat.

Vacuum the mat using a commercial-grade vacuum (recommended: motorized head with brushes) to remove any powder that has absorbed dirt and grit.

 

Routine Cleaning

Depending on the volume and nature of the traffic, a thorough cleaning may be necessary. Hot water extraction is the most efficient way for thorough cleaning.

 

Make Preparations

To reveal the mat’s complete surface, any furniture or fittings must be removed. For the extractor to be as efficient as possible, the mat should also be vacuumed to eliminate any loose debris. You will need to place a “Wet Floor” sign and block off the area for safety reasons.

 

Operating The Floor Extraction Equipment

On the market, several brands and models are available. To operate your equipment properly, please consult the handbook. Slowly withdrawing the wand will get the finest results.

Approach you throughout the extraction and wetting operations. It is essential, however, to work swiftly and never leave a part of the backing wet without extraction, since this might cause the backing’s size to fluctuate over time. Allow the carpet to dry completely before vacuuming it again after using the extractor.

 

Various Cleaning

In certain instances, there may be a stubborn stain on a tiny portion of the mat. In these situations, you should employ one of the strategies outlined in the table below. Every technique number relates to a certain type of stain chart.

Caution: no mat fiber resists stains. Hot liquids, bleaches, and goods containing natural colors, such as curry, mustard, herbal tea, etc., have the potential to produce permanent discoloration. These two tables will help you identify which types of stains require which cleaning agents and how they should be applied.
