Kinetex FAQs

Installing Kinetex is as easy to install as traditional modular carpet, however special attention should be applied until installers gain experience with module placement. Installers should perform site and material conditioning, surface preparation, concrete pH and moisture testing as if the were installing carpet modules. Because it is such a light-weight material, the modules cut very easily, reducing installation time.

Kinetex is cleaned using the same vacuum cleaners and hot water extraction equipment used to clean carpets. The schedules and cleaning supplies for preventative, daily, interim and restorative maintenance are similar to that of carpet. Kinetex dries 75% faster than carpet, rendering it suitable for cleaning while occupied. Please consult the Kinetex maintenance instructions for complete maintenance.
