Rug Care Guide
Regular Vacuuming
We highly recommend incorporating a routine vacuum cleaning schedule to effectively eliminate dirt and dust from the surface of your rugs. Regular vacuuming helps maintain the appearance and longevity of your rug by preventing dirt from settling into the fibers.
Professional Cleaning
For the best and safest results, rely on professional cleaning services for your rugs. Professionals have the expertise, specialized equipment, and knowledge of different rug materials to ensure thorough and gentle cleaning, extending the life and beauty of your rugs. It's a wise investment in maintaining the quality and longevity of your valuable rugs.
Home-Type Carpet Washing Machine
You can safely use a home-type carpet washing machine to clean your rugs. However, it's crucial to avoid harsh chemicals or bleach-based cleaners during the cleaning process. Instead, opt for regular rug shampoos, as they are gentle and suitable for your rugs. Please note that you should never attempt to clean your rugs in a regular washing machine or dryer, as these machines can potentially damage the delicate fibers and construction of the rugs.
Spot Cleaning
Handling spills and stains promptly is essential for preserving the beauty of your rugs. If a mishap occurs, follow these steps:
- Act Quickly: Immediately address the spill or stain to prevent it from setting.
- Gently Blot: Use a clean, damp cloth or paper towel to gently blot the affected area. Avoid rubbing, as this can push the stain deeper into the rug fibers.
- Avoid Hot Water: Use lukewarm water instead of hot water, as hot water can set some stains and damage natural fibers.
- No Harsh Chemicals: Refrain from using harsh chemicals or bleach, as they can discolor or harm your rug. Instead, consider using a mild detergent or specialized rug cleaner.
Periodic Rotation
For the best care of your rug and to prevent fading, consider rotating it every few months, especially in spots exposed to direct sunlight. This simple practice can help ensure even wear and protect its vibrant colors.
