Proper cleaning is paramount to the life and appearance of carpet whether you are in a home, office, or commercial facility. The CRI Commercial (204) and Residential (205) Standards for Maintenance and Cleaning were created to outline the proper protocols for maintaining carpet in any and all environments.<\/p>

Developed by manufacturer representatives with technical backgrounds and input from the cleaning industry, CRI Commercial (204) and Residential (205) standards represent the most comprehensive guide for commercial and residential cleaning. These standards are also the only carpet cleaning standards created and supported by the industry.<\/p>

CRI offers the standards for viewing online and as a free download.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
