Can I machine wash this rug?

What happens if the rug gets wet from rain?
The rug is designed to withstand various weather conditions and dries quickly. However, prolonged exposure to standing water should be avoided to prevent mold formation. Ensure it dries thoroughly after rain.
Troubleshooting
Rug develops a musty odor after rain.
While designed to resist odors, ensure the rug dries completely after exposure to moisture. Lay it flat or hang it in a well-ventilated area to expedite drying. Persistent odor may indicate it wasn't fully dry.
Rug appears faded after prolonged sun exposure.
This rug features UV protection, but extreme, continuous direct sunlight over years can still cause some minimal fading. If possible, periodically rotate the rug or provide some shade during peak sun hours to prolong color vibrancy.
Signs of mold formation.
Mold typically forms due to prolonged exposure to standing water or damp conditions. Immediately clean the affected area with a mild soap and water solution, then thoroughly rinse and ensure the rug dries completely. Prevent future mold by ensuring proper drainage and quick drying after getting wet.
