We strongly recommend all our floor coverings should be treated with a carpet and floor protector.

• The use of a barrier mat or doormat is always recommended at the entrance of premises to help reduce the amount of dirt walked into a room.
• For the first few months after your wool floor covering has been installed, vacuum 3-4 times a week using the brushes or a beater bar on your vacuum cleaner. This will ensure that it removes any fluff from the pile which will appear and is quite normal. After this time has elapsed the suction mode on the vacuum only may be used. Vacuum slowly and thoroughly. Continue to vacuum regularly.
. Shedding of fibers for first few days is normal, it will recede gradually.
. Vacuum regularly without the use of a beater bar.
. Blot liquid spills with clean towel.
. Scoop up solids with spatula or dull knife.
. For more serious spillage, professional cleaning recommended.

Caring for cotton rug:
. Vacuum regularly without the use of a beater bar (revolving cylinder with rows of stiff brushes).
. Use as-is until it needs washing. Normal shrinkage will occur during the first wash.
. For washing use any detergent with no bleach.
. Clip off any thread or yarn ends that loosen in the wash.  This will probably be needed only after the first wash, if at all.  If a small knot appears (weavers may tie the yarns, if needed, during weaving), use a dull pointed object to poke the knot back into the rug.
. Shrinkage is normal for natural cotton after washing: expect an average of 4% to 8%. Prefer professional dry cleaning to avoid shrinkage.

Caring for jute rugs:

Jute rugs only need to be vacuumed once or twice a week, depending on footfall traffic. Vacuum the rug from different directions, passing over the area several times. Ask visitors and family to keep shoes off the rug and rotate the rug for even wear every six months.

Spills, muddy footprints or pet accidents will need prompt treatment to protect a jute rug. For little spills or stains, spot cleaning works the best. Steam cleaning, wet shampoo or washing is not recommended for jute rugs—any method that involves drenching the natural fiber will damage and discolor it.
