Maintenance
It is important to vacuum your rug at least once a week to prolong its durability. The most effective way to remove dirt and dust is with the furniture cleaning attachment provided with your vacuum cleaner. A vacuum cleaner with a standard nozzle tends to remove less dust and dirt.
Vacuuming a new rug will produce fluff, but this will be temporary. The production of this fluff does not affect the quality of your rug.
The ideal air humidity for wool is around 50%. It must be noted that, when the air humidity is below 50%, the material becomes dry and its natural elasticity will decrease.
In order to prevent the wool from drying out, we recommend misting your woollen rug with water a few times a year. Let the rug become completely dry before reuse.
If rubber soles are frequently walked over a woollen rug it will wear quicker, especially if rotating or shifting movements are consistently made in one place.
In order to prevent heavy use on one particular location, we recommend turning your rug around once in a while.
