The compound is made of natural biodegradable ingredients like wood and maize that are transformed into small sponge-like particles that will be brushed into the carpet to absorb dirt and stain residues. The soiled compounds will then be removed by the cleaning equipments together with dirt and stains. Carpet can be safely stepped on anytime when cleaning is in progress. The above steps will be repeated until carpet is thoroughly cleaned and refreshed. This carpet cleaning method has proven to clean efficiently even on heavily soiled carpet.
