Cleaning and Care:
- Laminate flooring is easy to maintain. The first prerequisite for care and preservation of the flooring is a well-balanced room climate (55-65% relative humidity at 20° C / 68° F). These values ensure a healthy room climate.
- The laminate flooring is very resilient. The surface consists of high quality melamine resins, not of wood.
- Cleaning your laminate floor is simple – dirt and dust can be removed with a vacuum featuring a hard-surface attachment or a broom.
- For more difficult-to-remove soil, use a cloth moistened very lightly with plain water. Then wipe the surface with a clean dry cloth.
- Under no circumstances should the floor be wet- mopped!
- Heavier stains such as paint, glue, asphalt, oil, etc. can be removed easily, quickly and thoroughly with a basic laminate cleaner.
- You should carefully observe the manufacturer’s instructions.
- Robina Laminate Flooring needs no special treatment – never use soap solutions, waxes sealers, polishes or any abrasive materials. Warning! Under no circumstances should any type of vapour cleaning equipment be used !
Warning! Under no circumstances should any type of vapour cleaning equipment be used!
Preventive measures:
- Protect flooring surface with felt pads under furniture legs.
- You should use chair rollers with soft rollers and ones which are suitable for laminate floorings.
- With under floor heating, the laminate surface temperature should be 28° C (82° F). This applies particularly in the case of laid-out carpets.
