- Airing and vacuuming will help to eliminate the smell that the rug can have when it is new.
- Do not wash.
- Do not bleach.
- Do not tumble dry.
- Do not iron.
- Do not dry clean.
- Vacuum, shake and rotate the rug regularly.
- Remove dried spots immediately by scraping carefully towards the middle of the spot.
- Do not rub wet spots. Absorb moisture with paper towels, and clean with a damp cloth and mild detergent.
- Always use the standard floor-head, never the rotating brush, when vacuuming the rug. Professional carpet cleaning when needed.
- We strongly recommended a rug pad to protect your floors and keep your rug in place.
- Each rug is securely rolled, it may not lay completely flat at first. Lay a stack of books on the corners of your rug or reverse roll to help the rug relax quickly.
Jute rugs can be considered pet-friendly due to their durable nature, but there are some cleaning considerations to keep in mind:
-
Durability: Jute rugs are relatively durable and can handle the regular foot (and paw) traffic. However, they can be prone to snagging from pets' claws, so regular nail trimming is recommended.
-
Cleaning: Jute rugs are not as easy to clean as synthetic fibers because they absorb moisture, which can lead to staining and mildew if not properly managed. For light cleaning, regularly vacuuming your jute rug will help remove pet hair and dirt.
-
Spot Cleaning: If a spill occurs, it’s important to blot the area immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Avoid rubbing the spill, as this can cause the liquid to penetrate deeper into the fibers.
-
Deep Cleaning: For deeper cleaning, it’s best to use a professional rug cleaning service familiar with natural fibers to avoid damaging the rug.
Overall, jute rugs can be a good choice for homes with pets if maintained properly and if pets are trained or their claws are kept trimmed to prevent snags.
Yes, when cleaning jute rugs, it’s important to avoid certain cleaning products that could damage the natural fibers or cause discoloration. Here are some products to steer clear of:
-
Harsh Chemicals: Avoid cleaners that contain bleach or other harsh chemicals, as these can weaken the jute fibers and cause fading or discoloration.
-
Water-Based Cleaners: Jute absorbs moisture easily, which can lead to mold or mildew. It’s best to minimize the use of water and avoid steam cleaning.
-
Oily or Silicone-Based Products: These can leave residues that attract dirt and may be difficult to remove from the rug’s natural fibers.
For best results, stick to using a dry-cleaning powder designed for use on natural fibers or a mild, dry detergent. Always test any cleaner on a small, inconspicuous area of the rug first to ensure it doesn’t cause any damage or discoloration. If in doubt, consulting a professional rug cleaner who is experienced with natural fibers like jute is a wise choice.
Yes, you can layer other rugs on top of a jute rug to add depth and interest to your space. Here’s how to do it effectively:
-
Choose a Smaller Size: Select a rug that is smaller than the jute rug to create a layered look. This ensures the texture and color of the jute rug frame the top rug beautifully.
-
Contrast Textures: Pairing a smooth, soft rug on top of the rough texture of a jute rug can provide a pleasing contrast that enhances tactile appeal.
-
Complement Colors: Opt for a top rug with colors that complement or contrast nicely with the natural tones of the jute rug, depending on the look you want to achieve.
-
Align Shapes: If your jute rug is rectangular, layering another rectangular rug at an angle or centered can add an interesting visual element. Circular or uniquely shaped rugs can also create a focal point.
This layering technique is an excellent way to personalize your space and make it more dynamic and inviting.
