This stair runner is made using a needlepunch technique, involving short staple fibres stuck together and punched with a barbed needle. Typically used in offices, schools, and airports, this carpet runner is very durable, won't pull or snag, and won't tread down or flatten. The pile is extremely durable and resistant to flattening, making it suitable for high-traffic areas like staircases. It features a latex, gel backing that provides a non-slip surface on hard flooring like wood, vinyl, or ceramic tiles. While anti-slip on carpet, its effectiveness depends on the carpet's thickness. The 100% waterproof and rot-proof backing ensures the carpet won't shrink or wrinkle when wet. The texture is fairly coarse and firm, prioritizing durability and low maintenance over luxury. Made from 100% Polypropylene, this carpet is bleach proof, stain resistant, UV fade resistant, anti-static, and moth proof. It has a low radius of ignition and is hot nut tested to comply with British standards (BS 4790).
