FAQs

Is this rug suitable for a high-traffic area like a hallway?

Yes, the rug is made from durable polyester and is stain-resistant, making it suitable for hallways. However, due to its 14 mm pile height, occasional maintenance like rotating the rug or brushing the pile may be needed to prevent excessive wear.

How do I clean a spill on this rug?

Blot the spill immediately with a clean, dry cloth. For more stubborn stains, use a mild detergent and water solution, blotting from the edge of the stain inward. Rinse with a damp cloth and allow to air dry.

Can I use this rug with underfloor heating?

Yes, the rug is suitable for use with underfloor heating. It's recommended to use moderate temperatures to ensure the longevity of the rug's fibers.

What does OEKO-TEX certified mean?

OEKO-TEX certification means the rug has been tested and verified to be free from harmful substances, ensuring it is safe for your home environment.

Will this rug shed?

No, this rug is designed to be non-shedding, which helps maintain its appearance and reduces loose fibers in your home.

What is the pile height of this rug?

The pile height of this rug is 14 mm, offering a soft and comfortable feel underfoot.

What are the dimensions of this specific rug?

This particular rug measures 80 cm in width and 300 cm in length.

Troubleshooting

Rug won't lay flat

Ensure the rug is placed on a flat surface. Roll it up tightly in the opposite direction of the curl, leave it for a few hours, then unroll it again. Using a rug pad can also help keep it flat.

Noticeable pile crushing or indentations

This can occur in high-traffic areas or from heavy furniture. Periodically rotate the rug. Gently brush the pile with your hand or a soft brush to lift fibers.

Stains are difficult to remove

Blot spills immediately. For dried or stubborn stains, use a small amount of mild carpet cleaner and follow the spot cleaning instructions. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Static electricity

The rug is designed to be anti-static, but in very dry conditions, a slight charge might occur. A humidifier in the room can help reduce static buildup.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Stylish geometric design that complements modern decor.
Durable construction for everyday use.
Easy to clean and maintain, suitable for households with pets and children.
Adds comfort and helps reduce noise.
Certified safe for home environments.

Cons

The 14mm pile height might not be ideal for very heavy furniture or high-traffic areas prone to crushing.
Color may appear slightly different under varied lighting conditions.
Requires specific care if used with underfloor heating to maintain optimal performance.
As a polyester rug, it may be more prone to showing footprints or indentations than natural fiber rugs.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Unroll the rug carefully on a flat surface. Allow it to relax for 24-48 hours to help remove creases from packaging. If creases persist, a mild steaming process might help, but avoid excessive heat.

Compatibility:

Underfloor Heating: Suitable for use with underfloor heating. Ensure heating temperatures are moderate to preserve the rug's integrity.
Flooring: Recommended for use on hard floors. Use of a rug pad is advised to prevent slipping and protect your floor surface.

Care Instructions:

Vacuuming: Vacuum regularly without a beater bar or brush to prevent damage to the pile. A robot cleaner is also suitable.
Spot Cleaning: For spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Use a mild detergent solution for tougher stains, working from the outside of the stain inwards. Rinse with a damp cloth and allow to air dry completely.
Deep Cleaning: Professional cleaning is recommended for overall maintenance every 12-18 months.
