What is the backing material?

Troubleshooting
Runner feels uneven or is not lying flat
Check the adhesive or carpet tape securing the runner. Ensure it is applied evenly and is making firm contact with both the runner and the stair. Reapply adhesive if necessary.
Stains are difficult to remove
For stubborn stains, use a specific carpet stain remover suitable for polypropylene or consult the manufacturer's cleaning guide. Bleach can be used on designated areas, but test on an inconspicuous spot first and rinse thoroughly.
Fraying edges
This runner is professionally finished to prevent fraying. If fraying occurs, it may indicate damage from snagging or improper installation. Contact customer support for advice.
Runner feels rough or less plush over time
Regular vacuuming helps maintain the pile's loft. Avoid using vacuum cleaners with a beater bar on high settings, as this can damage the fibers. Ensure no abrasive dirt is left embedded in the pile.
