Care Instructions
Vacuum regularly and thoroughly:Â
- Vacuum the rug on both sides and the floor underneath regularly. Never use the extended brush while vacuuming, and adjust the vacuum strength. Avoid vacuuming the edge/binding or fringe of the rug as it may cause damage. Rugs with pile should be vacuumed in the direction of the pile.
Rug underlay:Â
- The rug has an unlined back that may be slippery against the floor. Therefore, we recommend using rug underlay for grip and floor protection.
Brushing the shaggy rug:Â
- Rugs with long pile need to be brushed regularly to maintain the fibre's appearance. Use a wide-toothed comb.
Pilling:Â
- Wool rugs may pill, especially those with pile. This is normal and a characteristic of the fibre. Pilling may be more noticeable when the rug is new. However, there is no guarantee that pilling will decrease over time. Vacuum the rug regularly with a folded brush head to remove excess fibres from production. We also recommend shaking the rug before use to fluff up the pile and remove excess wool.
Rotate the rug:Â
- Regularly rotate the rug in the room to expose it evenly and prevent uneven wear.
Stains:Â
- Always remove simple stains immediately. Blot wet stains with dry paper towels.
- For dry stains, gently scrape from the edges towards the centre. Then, use lukewarm water on an uncoloured cloth or sponge. Dampen the stain with a moist uncoloured cloth and mild soap or soap. Foam the solution with lukewarm water before applying. Do not rub the stain as it may make it harder to remove. Blot up the liquid and repeat until the stain is gone.
- Avoid using strong chemicals for stain treatment at home. Tough stains should be treated by a professional, preferably soon after the stain occurs to increase the chances of cleaning the fibre effectively.
Rug cleaning by a professional:Â
- Always take your rug to a reputable laundry for professional flat washing. Classic Collections rugs should not be machine or dry cleaned.
Additional information:Â
- All new rugs have a distinct odour that will dissipate over time. Ventilating or vacuuming the rug will help the odour dissipate more quickly.
