How to Care for Your Rug
Spills
Our rugs are very durable, but spills and stains are bound to happen. When a spill occurs, the first step is to blot up as much as possible. Always work from the outer edge of the stain to the center of the stain, being careful
not to rub it any deeper into the rug. After the spill has been contained, blot with cold water.
Maintenance
Vacuum your rugs regularly. This not only removes grit, but also prolongs the life of your rug. Be careful if you have a fringed rug, because a vacuum machine will damage the edges of a fringed rug.
Once or twice a year flip the rug over and vacuum its back. This helps knock out grit that has fallen into the rugs foundation. Depending on how much traffic your rug gets, it is a good idea to rotate your rug every six months to a year. This helps ensure even wear of the rugs pile.
Over time, grit and dirt will become embedded so deeply in your rug that it will require a professional cleaning. This will not only remove the deeply embedded dirt, it will also brighten the rugs overall appearance. Depending on
the traffic, we recommend that a rug be thoroughly, professionally cleaned every 2-3 years.
