CARE AND CLEANING


Avoid cleaning rug with water, this is very important.

Water can stain bamboo silk. Cellulose chemically reacts when combined with water and may produce a yellowish colour. 


  • Citric or acetic acid solutions work best for cleaning.

  • Never rub at spills as it may warp the pile; instead, blot with paper towel or white cloth to remove as much as possible then clean with a citric acid powder solution. Start at the edge of the stain and work inwards.

  • For thicker spills spoon off as much as possible then proceed with stain remover.

  • For dark liquid stains, i.e red wine, poor salt over spill to absorb liquid first then spoon off.

  • Apply cleaner as conservatively as you can, bamboo silk is a very absorbent material and you should avoid soaking.

  • Only dry rug spills on a cool air setting, heat is detrimental to the material.

  • We would suggest getting your rug professionally cleaned every few years for maintenance.
