FAQs
Is this rug suitable for a bathroom?
While the rug is durable and can be used in high-traffic areas, it's best suited for covered outdoor spaces or indoor areas. Prolonged exposure to high moisture levels in bathrooms is not recommended due to its construction.
Can I use this rug with underfloor heating?
> Info needed: Compatibility with underfloor heating has not been specified in the product details.
What does 'flatweave' mean for the rug's feel?
A flatweave rug has a tight, flat surface without a raised pile. This makes it very durable and easy to clean, but it will feel firmer underfoot compared to plush, high-pile rugs.
How heavy is the rug?
The rug weighs approximately 1.2kg per square meter, indicating a moderate density and thickness.
Does the anti-slip backing work on all floor types?
The anti-slip gel backing is designed to help prevent slippage on hard flooring. However, on extremely smooth or polished surfaces, an additional anti-slip rug grip may provide extra security.
Can this rug be washed in a washing machine?
No, this rug is not designed to be machine washed. Cleaning should be done by spot cleaning, vacuuming, or professional rug cleaning.
Troubleshooting
Rug slides on the floor
For internal use on smooth, hard floors, place an anti-slip rug grip underneath the rug. Ensure the floor surface is clean and dry before placing the rug.
Fraying edges
Trim any loose threads carefully with scissors. Avoid pulling on loose fibers.
Stubborn stains
Blot the stain immediately. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution with a damp cloth and blot gently. Rinse with a clean damp cloth and allow to air dry completely. Professional cleaning may be required for set-in stains.
Rug appears creased after unrolling
Allow the rug to lay flat in a warm room for 24-48 hours. Placing heavy objects on the creases can also help flatten them.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Unroll the rug upon arrival. Allow it to lay flat for a few hours to settle. If placed on a smooth, hard floor internally, consider using an anti-slip rug grip underneath for added security.
Compatibility:
This rug is compatible with most indoor and outdoor hard flooring surfaces. It is not recommended for use on carpet.
Care:
- Spot Cleaning: For minor spills, blot immediately with a clean, damp cloth. Avoid harsh scrubbing.
- Vacuuming: Vacuum regularly using a standard vacuum cleaner without a beater bar on a high setting. This helps to remove surface dirt and maintain the pile.
- Deep Cleaning: For more significant cleaning, consider professional rug cleaning. Avoid soaking the rug.
- Outdoor Use: While suitable for outdoor areas, it is best used in covered spaces to prolong its lifespan and prevent excessive moisture exposure.
