Keep carpets clean

'Strategem' is an overall maintenance strategy from Host von Schrader that recognises the performance characteristics of carpet relative to soiling and cleaning and then applies targeted solutions.

"Strategem consists of five simple steps using Host's Dry Extraction Cleaning System, which allows carpet to be kept looking its best, even in areas of heavy footfall," explains Mike Egerton, MD.

1. Strategem suggests that walk-off entrance mats/inserts are used to keep the dirt out.

Then use the Host ExtractorVac daily to remove the dirt from the mats. 2. Vacuum the dirt that accumulates in the carpet every day to keep the soil from spreading. 3. Remove spots and spills every day using Host Dry Carpet Cleaner or Spot Remover.

4. Clean where people walk as needed. 5. Monitor and assesses the results regularly, as there may be need to alter the schedule.
