Use Style accessories for a perfect result.
To allow the floating floor the necessary contraction and expansion we advise against
fixing any accessory on the floor. Never attach skirting boards directly onto the installed
floor. Permanent sealing products (silicone) should never be used to seal up the
gap between the floor covering and skirting boards/profiles. Joints on fixed building
elements (door frames, heating pipes, etc.) should never be completely sealed with
elastic filler. You should use filler twine as a basis for filling expansion joints. Another
option is to make use of end profiles to seal of expansion joints. Profiles, doorstops and
suchlike should not be screwed through the floor covering into the subfloor.
To keep your floor in good condition, it is important to place non-rubber backed
doormats at all entrances, to prevent dirt or grit on your floor. Placing doormats will
eliminate abrasive particles driven by footwear and will reduce damage. Do not use
rubber-backed mats, as long-lasting contact with rubber can cause permanent
discolouration. Never place doormats on a wet floor.
Consider saving a few planks for any potential future repairs.

Rolling office chairs, furniture legs, fitness appliances, etc. should be fitted with soft, non-rubber casters, to avoid
permanent damage to your floor. Use a suitable desk mat.
You should use felt pads or protective feet for items that contain rubber, such as chair legs, furniture legs, fitness
appliances, etc.

CLEANING
Initial cleaning
First remove all dirt and dust from the flooring with a brush or vacuum cleaner. Then
clean with water and a neutral appropriate cleaning agent, at least twice and until the
water stays clean. We strongly recommend using BERRYALLOC Vinyl Planks cleaning
products. Any other cleaning product may contain agents that damage resilient floor
surfaces. The coating of the top-layer makes a specific treatment after installation
unnecessary.
Regular cleaning instructions
Vacuum or wet mop. When required, use a solution of clean water and mild, pH-neutral
detergent or domestic floor cleaning emulsion.
We strongly recommend using BERRYALLOC Vinyl Planks cleaning products, as other
products may damage your flooring surface. Rinse thoroughly and soak up residual
water.
NB: the floor can feel more slippery when it becomes wet. Spots, marks and spillages
should be wiped up as soon as possible.
Do not use chlorinated solvents. Never use wax or varnish coating.
Never use maintenance products that contain wax or oil. Never use a steam mop.
