Care and use of the SPC panels

1.

Place doormats at the entrances to the apartment to effectively prevent sand, earth and water from being brought in on the shoe soles. Protect your floor by placing protective mats in front of and/or behind each entrance. Protective mats will collect dirt, sand, pebbles and other solid particles and absorb moisture. Keep protective mats clean. Do not use latex or rubber backed mats on the SPC floors as some compounds in latex and rubber can permanently stain or damage the panels. Protective mats for laying on the SPC panels should be marked as “non-staining”.

2.

All furniture and other devices that are in contact with the floor should be equipped with protective pads, e.g. felt pads, which should be replaced regularly.

3.

Place armchairs and other furniture equipped with hard plastic casters on plastic protective mats. If the protective mats are not used, replace the castors with W-type hard floor castors.

4.

The floor exposed to sunlight (UV light) will change its original colour.

5.

The floor is factory finished and ready for use immediately after installation. Floor care should only be carried out using products designed for this purpose. The SPC floor care instructions can be found at  barlinek.com

  • Never use vacuum cleaners with a brush that can damage the floor.
  • Immediately remove any water spills.
  • Vacuum or sweep the floor to remove any particles that can scratch it.
  • You can use a damp cloth with or without a recommended floor care product. Do not leave wet marks on the floor after cleaning.
  • Do not use high-pressure or steam washers to clean the floor.
  • Trim pets’ claws to prevent damage to the floor.
  • Do not move heavy furniture or equipment across the floor.
  • Floor care products other than those recommended by Barlinek may damage the varnish layer, change the colour and gloss of the floor and stain the floor.
  • Do not use wax, paraffin or silicone-based floor care products.
  • For daily care, we recommend dry cleaning (vacuuming, sweeping).

Clean the floor with a mop, along the panels.
