Featuring a deep navy background with hand-drawn Highland cow illustrations, this runner traps up to 95% of incoming mud, dirt, and moisture. While it offers excellent durability and aesthetic appeal, users should note that the specific textured design requires consistent adherence to the recommended machine-wash cycle to maintain its grip and absorption capabilities.

FAQs
Can I put this runner in the tumble dryer?
No, it is not recommended to tumble dry the runner. Please air dry it to protect the rubber backing and the structure of the fibers.
Is the backing safe for all floor types?
The non-slip rubber backing is safe for most hard floors like wood, tile, and laminate. Avoid using it on top of loose rugs or very plush carpet.
Does it really trap 95% of dirt?
Yes, when used as a main entryway mat, the high-density fiber construction is specifically tested to trap up to 95% of incoming mud and dust.
How often should I wash it?
Wash as needed based on foot traffic. In high-use areas, a monthly wash is usually sufficient to maintain both appearance and absorbency.
Are the Highland cows printed or woven?
The design features hand-drawn Highland cows, ensuring a high-quality aesthetic that resists fading even after repeated washes.
Troubleshooting
Runner sliding on floor
Ensure the floor surface is completely dry and clean before placing the runner. Dust or moisture on the floor can prevent the rubber backing from gripping properly.
Mat does not lie flat
If the mat arrives curled from shipping, roll it tightly in the opposite direction for a few hours or lay it flat in a warm room to help the materials relax.
Reduced absorption over time
Dirt buildup can clog the fibers. A thorough machine wash at 30ºC without fabric softener should restore its ability to trap moisture and grit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up your Highland Cow runner is straightforward: unroll the mat in your chosen location and press down firmly to set the non-slip backing. It is compatible with most hard floor types, including laminate, tile, wood, and vinyl. To ensure longevity, vacuum the rug regularly to remove loose debris that hasn't been trapped deep in the fibers. When the mat becomes heavily soiled, machine wash at 30ºC. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can coat the fibers and reduce their absorbent qualities. Always air dry the runner; do not tumble dry or place it directly against intense heat sources to prevent degrading the rubber backing.
