The pile and fibres in a Belgotex Carpets floorcovering trap dust until the next vacuum cleaning. So the quantity of airborne dust in carpeted rooms is much lower than in bare rooms, where dust is constantly disturbed by draughts and sweeping.
As airborne dust is a carrier of germs and allergens, these are reduced by the dust-trapping properties of a Belgotex Carpets Floorcovering. Home carpeting will not cause allergic reactions if regularly vacuumed, and is therefore an excellent choice for people with allergies to house - dust mites.
Many people mistakenly believe that carpets are less hygienic than other flooring. The reality is bacteria and allergens recur on ALL floors despite regular cleaning.
The truth is carpeted rooms have up to 12 times less dust than smooth-surfaced areas. Studies show that carpeted rooms have less airborne dust and allergens than other surfaces. The fact is that it’s the spores and allergens IN THE AIR whisked up off hard, smooth surfaces that cause allergic reactions such as asthma. Carpets actually improve the indoor air quality by trapping dust and allergens in their fibres, removing these culprits from our breathing space, for later vacuuming.
Not only does your carpet improve the air you breathe by trapping these irritants in their fibres, removing them from your breathing space, but the SilverCare anti-microbial treatment eliminates dust mites, bacteria and reduces unpleasant odours too!
SilverCare is a safe and natural protective shield of silver ions scientifically proven to eliminate dust mites, bacteria and unpleasant odours from your carpet.
Applied during the manufacturing process, SilverCare deeply penetrates the carpet and coats each fibre, slowly releasing disinfecting silver ions into the air which combat bacteria and reduce allergens, enhancing the hygiene of your home
SilverCare’s natural antiseptic properties are hypo-allergenic and non-toxic and have been used for centuries to sterilise drinking water, dress wounds and protect against infection in common household goods from plasters to cosmetics and more recently, in mattresses and fridges.
Did you know? Almost 30% of the population today is affected by allergic rhinitis as compared to 3.8% in 1968.
The appearance of new allergens (for example exotic plants and fruits and increased air pollution), poorly ventilated buildings (aka ‘Sick building’ syndrome), as well as decreased carpet sales are major causes. The filtering effect of carpets directly alleviate allergic reactions as proven by research in Sweden which showed the direct relationship between carpet sales and asthma – the incidences of asthma actually INCREASED as more people mistakenly replaced their carpets with other flooring in a misguided attempt to ease symptoms. SilverCare has proven anti-bacterial properties that fight against dust mites, mould or spores commonly thought to occur in carpets.
SilverCare from Belgotex Carpets is the natural way to bring relief to allergy sufferers and protect small children and your family from respiratory problems.
