Preserving the colours of your rug

Rugs can lose their vibrant colours over time. But this doesn’t have to be the case. With proper care and regular maintenance this problem won’t occur. The first step of maintenance is proper cleaning.

Weekly vacuuming takes dirt and other dust fiber out of your rug. As a result, the original colours of the rug will not be masked. However, overtime dirt will accumulate and it is good to have your rug professionally cleaned by rug experts once a year. As a result your rug will be returned to you looking new with its vibrancy restored.

Another step is proper stain care. Trying to clean out a stain yourself is a bad idea. Most solutions and commercial cleaning products will damage the colour of your rug. Either they will cause rug dye to bleed or will extract it and cause the colouring to fade.


The best solution for stains is to bring your rug to a reputable rug cleaner. Mention what type of stain is on your rug and which area. They will be able to treat it effectively without damaging your rug. For even better results find a rug cleaning plant that uses eco-cleaning. This cleaning will be gentle on your rug but tough on dirt. Your rugs will look vibrant and new.
