What Rugs Are Suitable for Outdoors?

Durability and weather resistance are key factors to consider when selecting a garden rug. Our selection of outdoor rugs is specifically crafted to withstand the elements, ensuring long-lasting performance in various weather conditions, including harsh winds, thunderstorms, and scorching heat.

These rugs are typically made from synthetic materials such as polypropylene, which is easy to clean, lightweight, and resistant to moisture, fading, and mould growth. The tightly woven construction of these rugs makes them resistant to dirt and stains, ensuring easy maintenance and a fresh appearance. However, if you are searching for synthetic garden rugs, opt for carpets made from acrylic, olefin, polypropylene, sisal, or natural fibres.

Before choosing an outdoor rug, consider its placement and the material's suitability for exposure to rain. If you're placing the rug on a wooden deck without a cover, remember to periodically move the outdoor rug and furniture to prevent wood fading, rotting, moulding, and water-related issues. Balance style and preservation to create a sustainable and beautiful outdoor space.

How to Clean Outdoor Rugs?

Frequently exposed to bad weather, dirt, and debris, outdoor rugs require regular maintenance. Luckily, cleaning outdoor rugs is a breeze, thanks to their resilient materials and design. Here are some simple steps to keep your garden rug looking its best:

• Shake It Well: Grab a corner of the rug and shake it vigorously. This will chase away the debris and dirt. If the garden rug is too large, hang it on a fence and gently beat it with a broom to remove accumulated dust particles.
• Spot Cleaning: For minor stains, use a mild detergent or a mixture of water and vinegar to gently scrub the affected area. Rinse with water and allow the rug to air dry.
• Deep Cleaning: Consider using a power washer or hose to remove stubborn dirt if your outdoor rug requires deeper cleaning. Ensure the rug is completely dry before placing it back in its designated area.
• Remove Mildew and Mold: Moisture accumulation can make your outdoor rug prone to mould and mildew. Spray your garden rug with water and bleach mixture or clean it with vinegar and baking soda, rinse it, and let it dry under the sun.

Remember to refer to the manufacturer's cleaning instructions for specific care guidelines, as some outdoor rugs may have unique maintenance requirements.

Can Outdoor Rugs Stay Outside on Rainy Days?

Yes, outdoor rugs are designed to withstand exposure to various weather conditions, including rainy days. The synthetic materials used in their construction are water-resistant and quick-drying, allowing outdoor rugs to stand strong during wet weather.

However, it's recommended to provide some level of protection during extended periods of precipitation or heavy rain to prolong the garden rug's lifespan. Consider placing the rug under a covered patio or using a waterproof cover when not in use to prevent excessive moisture exposure.
