Here to improve your bottom line
March 09th 2006

You’ve made a significant investment in your business.You’ve bought a quality carpet.However, as you are well aware, good quality carpeting needs to be looked after to get the most from it, so regular cleaning and maintenance is essential

Awell thought out, regular cleaning programme - if rigidly adhered to - can prolong the life of the carpet considerably, saving money in the process, as well as providing a pleasant, healthy environment for staff and clientele. A professional cleaning technician will be able to work out a suitable cleaning programme to suit the requirements of your own particular establishment.

Of course, businesses can go it alone and attempt the cleaning process in house, although we all know someone who’s done this in the hope of saving money, but ended up having it cost more! They’ve either suffered carpet shrinkage or mouldy, smelly carpet backing and underlay as a result of over-wetting the carpet. They also didn’t manage to fully extract the cleaning detergent or powder.This meant the residues attracted dirt like a magnet, which then caused the clean area to quickly re-soil and look worse than before they started. In fact, the more they are cleaned this way, the worse the problem became.

Having your carpet cleaned properly by professionals can actually SAVE you money Chem-Dry®, as the carpet and upholstery cleaning specialists are also the largest carpet and upholstery cleaning company in the world, with over 630 operations in the UK alone. Their patented, non-allergenic, solvent free cleaning process, which uses a combination of heat and carbonation to help break down dirt embedded within carpets and fabrics, is only used by Chem-Dry technicians.

This method deep cleans carpets without the need for high-pressure water treatments and soapy detergents. Using a low-pressure applicator, millions of tiny bubbles penetrate deep into the base of the carpet and then lift the dirt particles to the surface where they are extracted. Independent research shows that carpets cleaned by Chem-Dry stay cleaner for longer and actually resoil less than a new carpet, so even though regular cleaning is necessary to extend the life of any carpet or fabric, you’ll actually need to clean these less frequently than you would do with other processes.

“One of our greatest achievements has been the reduction in the cleaning cycle of one of our clients from four times to twice a year, over a two-year period.Carpets staying cleaner for longer reduces the need to clean and so also lengthens the life of the carpet, which can save a company thousands of pounds in both cleaning and replacement floor covering costs.Chem-Dry is able to do this because of the unique way it cleans and the naturally based cleaning solution the method employs.” Lee Grant, Corporate Services Director, Chem-Dry.
