Rug Care (Dust/Allergies)
Regular cleaning is necessary for your rug to remove any dust that settles on the surface. A weekly vacuum with a HEPA filter vacuum cleaner will eliminate dust mites whilst also helping it look newer for longer. Cleaning under the rug weekly is also recommended. For anyone with dust allergies, it is commonly recommended to also vacuum the whole underside of rugs.
Why Can New Rugs Smell?
Sometimes new rug’s have an initial odour that comes from the rug’s manufacturing. Like almost all common household products rugs emit VOC’s (volatile organic compounds), in fact Rugs actually emit fewer VOCs than other household furnishings. But whether the material is natural or synthetic, the process of off gassing can sometimes create an unpleasant aroma.
The good news is that new rug odours dissipate over a few days or weeks. Leave your new rug in a well-ventilated space, and use the space as little as possible for at least 72 hours. Here are a few other easy ways to hurry this process along:
- Turn up the heat.
- Open your doors and windows.
- Frequently vacuum over the first few days.
Why does my rugs have threads sticking out, or shedding fibres?
In some cases, a rug may shed some of its fibres early on in its lifespan. This is completely normal and will stop within a couple of weeks or months depending on the material the rug is made. The shedding of a new rug should stop after light regular vacuuming and normal wear.
Pop Ups:
Pop ups can happen in any kind of hand woven rug, whether its Jute, Wool etc.
Due to the nature of hand woven floor rugs, pop ups are not considered a fault. They are simply part of the general maintenance of a handwoven piece.
Fortunately, Pop ups can be very quickly and easily mended.
The below fixes are also done during the construction of a handwoven rug, therefore when replicated at home is of no harm to the quality or durability of your handwoven rug.
Fixing Loose end pop ups:
Hand Woven floor rugs are all constructed of long lengths of fibre, all high must end at some point. Occasionally these ends will wriggle out and appear on the front side. Loose ends can very simply be trimmed to the pile height of your rug.
Fixing Loop Pop ups:
Alternatively a loop from the pile might appear higher than the pile height. Loops can simply be pushed back into the weave from the top side, or you can hook them from the underside and pull them back to match the pile height.
