Bodenbelag pflegen – so bleibt dein Boden lange schön und werterhaltend
Why regular care is so important
Your floor is subjected to wear and tear every day: shoes bring in dust, sand, or small stones—and these act like fine sandpaper. If you remove them regularly, you will avoid scratches and preserve the beautiful surface of your floor.
With the right care, you will not only extend the life of your floor, but also contribute to a hygienic and well-maintained home. A clean floor looks better, feels more pleasant, and is simply more enjoyable.
Proper cleaning – step by step
Caring for your floor doesn't have to be complicated. With a few simple routines, it will stay beautiful for a long time:
Vacuum or sweep regularly
Use a soft broom or vacuum cleaner. This will prevent scratches caused by fine dirt.Wipe with a damp cloth, but not wet
Only wipe with a damp cloth or mop. Too much water can damage joints and edges if the floor is not water-resistant.Use gentle cleaning agents
Use mild, pH-neutral cleaners. Strong household chemicals or steam cleaners are not necessary.Schedule regular maintenance intervals
In heavily used rooms such as hallways or kitchens, it is worth cleaning more thoroughly every two to four weeks.

Care depending on soil type
Every floor reacts differently, so you should be aware of its specific characteristics:
Laminate flooring
It is robust but sensitive to standing moisture. Therefore, only wipe with a damp cloth and avoid oil-based cleaning products. There are also water-resistant laminate floors. These are much more resistant to moisture and are slightly less sensitive to cleaning. However, they should not be wiped with too much water either.
Designer flooring / CERAMIN flooring
CERAMIN® is particularly easy to care for: wiping with a mild cleaner is all that is needed. The closed surface prevents dirt and moisture from penetrating.

Wooden floor / parquet
Wooden floors have a warm and natural look, but require more care. Special soap cleaners and regular re-oiling maintain the surface. Here too, only wipe with a damp cloth, as parquet floors are very sensitive to moisture.
Kitchen & Bathroom
In damp rooms, a waterproof, dimensionally stable floor covering is essential. Regular dry wiping prevents water stains and residues.
You can read more about this in the article. “Sustainable flooring for the kitchen”.
Common mistakes in floor care
Sometimes small things make all the difference. You should avoid these common mistakes:
Using too much water when mopping puts strain on joints and edges.
Harsh cleaners or steam cleaners – they can damage surfaces.
Furniture without felt glides—they leave unsightly pressure marks.
Dirt in the entrance area – use doormats to prevent scratches.
With a little care, your floor will stay beautiful and well maintained for longer.
Long-term protection for your floor
If you maintain your floor regularly, you not only protect it from dirt, but also preserve its quality.
Ensure that no UV radiation falls directly on the floor for long periods of time, check the joints occasionally, and use care products that are suitable for the respective material if necessary.
