Everything You Need to Know About Wool Rugs
Wool is naturally flame resistant and does not melt like many synthetic fibres. Its dense natural structure helps slow the spread of flames, making wool rugs a safer choice for everyday living spaces.
Wool fibres naturally trap dust particles and impurities from the air, helping create a cleaner and more comfortable indoor environment. Their breathable structure also supports year-round comfort.
Some shedding is completely normal during the first few months of use. This is a natural characteristic of wool fibres and will gradually reduce with regular vacuuming and care.
Avoid bleach, high-alkaline detergents and steam cleaning machines. These can damage wool fibres, remove natural lanolin protection and affect the rug’s texture over time.
Using rug pads, rotating your rug regularly and limiting direct sunlight exposure can significantly extend the life and appearance of your wool rug.
For deep stains or annual maintenance, professional cleaning by experienced wool rug specialists is recommended to preserve texture, colour and fibre quality.
