Rug care

Vacuuming: Regular vacuuming is vital to keep your rug in tip top condition. High traffic areas should be vacuumed on a daily basis to remove normal household dirt and grit which causes abrasion to the yarn fibres. Remember that the cleaner the rug – the longer it will last.

Furniture: Try to rearrange your furniture to create wear distribution over the rug surface – your rug will look better for longer.

Rug Rotation: Rotate your rug 180% to help to distribute the wear – help your rug to look better for longer.

Brushing your rug will help to lift pile back to the original pile direction or setting and give a refreshed look to your rug. Try a stiff broom, or even better a stiff hand brush to brush the pile back and improve the appearance. Be careful not to be too vigorous as this may distort the pile setting and character.

Rug Beating: Do not beat your rug or shake your rug too vigorously as this may cause distress and possible shape distortion to the integrity of the weave construction.
