How to Clean Coir Carpets

Vacuum the coir carpet to remove dirt, dust and other debris that has settled on the surface of the carpet.

Sprinkle a dry powder cleaning product liberally onto the coir carpet. Alternatively, create your own dry powder cleaning solution by mixing equal parts baking soda and cornstarch. Add some spices or dried fragrant leaves—such as lavender, cinnamon or cloves—to the powder.

Leave the powder on the coir for at least 30 minutes.

Remove all traces of the powder with your vacuum.

Repeat the process at least every six months to keep your coir carpet looking and smelling its best.
