ColorStar Mats

Description

This top-of-the-line mat was designed for high-traffic areas with heat-set, UltraTwist™, nylon-yarn construction that traps moisture and dirt before they're tracked on the floor or carpet. The hard-working rubber backing minimizes movement on most floor surfaces, including carpeting.

ColorStar mats feature the static dissipative Perma Dye with Stain Stopper dye system that insures the best colorfastness among all yarn-dyed mats on the market today.
Cleaning is easy! Simply hose the mat with water and hang dry; use vacuum and extraction cleaning methods as needed.

ColorStar™ is one of highest quality tufted nylon-on-rubber mats available industry-wide.

Mat Thickness: 1/8"
Backing Options: Please contact us for backing type options

Note: 

Please be advised that, due to normal variations in production, we are unable to guarantee the exact size of mats. A variance of 3% - 5% is to be expected on all mat sizes.

Cleaning Instructions

ColorStar mats can be cleaned in several different ways:

• They can be commercially laundered (see Laundering Instructions)
• Vacuumed regularly (daily in high-traffic areas; weekly in lower-traffic applications)
• Cleaned with an extractor, or hosed off as necessary to remove heavy soil
• Hang mat to dry

Mats should always be dry before they are placed back in service.

Laundering Instructions

ColorStar mats that are backed with nitrile rubber can be commercially laundered.  Proper laundering will prolong the life of the mat by preventing the buildup of soil and soap residue.  ColorStar mats are manufactured using PET Yarn.  PET is a type of polyester that needs to be processed using the proper chemistry to obtain optimal results. When PET products are exposed to oils, the yarn has an affinity to retain these oils.  We would recommend starting with 2 oz. of detergent per cwt., and 1 oz. of alkali per cwt.  The level of chemicals required will depend on the type of accounts you service.  Please consult with your chemical supplier if you have additional questions or concerns.   

1. Flush 2-3 minutes, medium water level, 120 degrees F (49 degrees C)
2. Flush (optional) 2-3 minutes, medium water level, 120 degrees F (49 degrees C)
3. Break 5-10 minutes, high water level, 120 degrees F (49? degrees C)
4. Rinse 2 minutes, high water level, cold
5. Rinse 2 minutes, high water level, cold
6. Extract (low speed) 1-2 minutes
7. Shake out (rotate wheel at wash speed with drain open) 1 minute
8. Extract (high speed max - 250 Gs) 3-5 minutes
9. Dry 5-10 minutes, 180 degrees F (82 degrees C) basket temp.
10. Cool down 5 minutes
11. Lay mats flat following removal from washer or dryer. Allow to cool before rolling.

For heavy soil mats, increase temperature to max 140 degrees F (60 degrees C).Break should not exceed pH of 9.5; use low pH non-ionic detergents. Do not over-dry mats; basket temperature of dryer should not exceed 180 degrees F (82 degrees C).If mats are not dried, final rinse can be increased to 140 degrees F (60 degrees C). This will reduce moisture retention following extraction.
