IICRC Revised Standard Guide Now Available for Review

The Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC) has revised the IICRC S100-2011 Standard and Reference Guide for Professional Cleaning of Textile Floor Coverings. The revised draft of S100 Standard is available now for public review and comment.

IICRC S100 describes the procedures, methods and systems to be followed when performing professional commercial and residential textile floor covering (e.g., carpet and rugs) maintenance and cleaning. This Standard does not specifically address the protocols and procedures for restoration or remediation of contaminated textile floor coverings. No attempt is made to evaluate the strengths or weaknesses of individual cleaning methods or to compare or contract one method with another.
