FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Will a Rug Pad Provide Extra Grip?

Yes. Foot traffic causes friction, which wears out the bottom of the rug. If your rug does not have any furniture on it, it's especially important to use a pad to prevent slip and trip hazards as well.

Will a Rug Pad Provide Extra Cushion?

Yes. A pad under your rug adds extra plushness, especially to thinner rugs. They also promote an extra sense of peace and quiet by reducing the sound of your footsteps.

Can I Use a Rug Pad Outdoors?

We do not recommend rug pads for outdoor use.

Other advantages of pads?

Pads will protect your floors from getting scratched, protect the rug foundation thus extending the life of your rug, makes vacuuming easier and prevents rugs from bubbling, bunching and curling. Simply lay in designed area under your floor rug and your rug will grip immediately to your floors.

Do pads have to be the same size as the rug?

There is no strict rule that a pad must be exactly the same size as the rug. While it can be similar, we generally recommend choosing a pad that is about 10 – 20% smaller on each side than the rug. This helps keep the pad hidden while still providing a strong grip. If the pad does end up slightly larger than the rug, it can easily be trimmed with household scissors for a perfect fit.

Dimensions

What size should I select for my room?

Choosing the right rug size for your living room, dining room, or bedroom is just as important as picking patterns and colours. The size and shape you select can really define your living space. Size selections should be based not just on the size of your room, but the room's configuration as well.

Living Room

lounge 230x160cm

Option #1

For smaller areas we recommend a 230x160cm size primarily because the length of the rug is similar to the length of a 3-seater lounge. The front of the rug should rest a few inches in front of your sofa, so the rug usually sits very close or next to furniture, so you get to enjoy the softer/warmer feel on your feet.

lounge 290x200cm

Option #2

Larger rooms typically require a rug that is 290x200cm which is ideal when you want to fill the floor of a larger living area. Place the front legs of the sofa on top of the rug to help prevent the rug from sliding.

lounge 330x240cm

Option #3

If your main goal is to make your living space as spacious and cozy as possible the size 330x240cm will not only cover a larger part of your living area but it will make the overall space, look larger.

lounge 400x300cm

Option #4

If your current set up features furniture floating in the centre of the room, we recommend size 400x300cm. All furniture should sit completely on the rug surface without looking cramped. When all four legs of your furniture rest completely on the rug surface it will optimise the overall presentation and style of your physical furniture to your room décor.

Dining Room

Pick a rug that is large enough to hold all chair legs, even when they are pulled out from under your table at least a size 330x240cm if you have a 6-seater or the larger size 400x300cm if you have an 8-seater.

dining 330x240cm

dining 400x300cm

Alternatively, if you have a round dinning table, we suggest at least a size 200x200cm if you have a 4-seater or the larger size 240x240cm if you have an 6-seater.

round dinning table 200x200cm

Bedroom

bedroom 230x160cm

Option #1

Lay the rug down so that the longer side is parallel to your headboard. Place the front legs of the bed on top of the rug, making sure the floor is visible on all sides. The foot of the bed should rest at a point halfway across the rug.

bedroom 330x240cm

Option #2

If you want to fill a larger space of your bedroom and place all furniture on top of the rug, size 330x240cm is the best option for this set up. It will make your space look bigger and you get to keep your feet on your rug most of the times.

bedroom 230x67cm

Option #3

This option is if you want a bit of something something without overpowering the room, 2 short runners in size 230x67cm is the smart option as it keeps your feet on the rug while getting in and out of the bed and they will be a feature piece in your room.

Hallway

Try adding a runner to your hallway to elongate and transform the narrow space. Leave at least 10 cm between the edges of your runner and your walls. Although 300x80cm is the most popular option, depending on your space you can get the next size which is 400x80cm.

Material

Material type is a very important factor to think of when choosing an area rug. While considering different materials, it's important to keep in mind that the weave type can ultimately change the overall feel of the rug. As a rule of thumb, lower pile rugs won't feel as soft as higher ones, but will last longer with regular care.

Natural Rug

Natural Fibers

Plant fibres, typically collected from the outer layers of the plant stem. Natural fibre rugs are valued for their durability and ecofriendly nature.

Our natural fibre selection includes:

Coir: Stiff fibre extracted from coconut husks. Commonly used in entryways or on covered porches.

Cotton: A soft fibre that grows in protective cover, known as a "boll". Best used in casual areas, sheltered from sunlight.

Hemp: Woven from the stalks of hemp plants. Coarser to the touch than Sisal fibres.

Jute: A long vegetable fibre which is spun into strong, coarse threads. Jute yarn is highly absorbent and should not be exposed to excessive moisture.

Sisal: The strongest natural plant fibre, woven from the leaves of the Sisalina plant. Sisal fibres are very coarse underfoot.

Poly

Synthetic

Man made materials; most prized for the general ease of care and resistance to colour fading relative to other materials.

Synthetic offerings include:

Acrylic: Fibers made from a polymer, which can mimic the look of wool or cotton. Highly resistant to colour fading.

acrylic polyester

Art Silk: Also known as "Artificial Silk", this synthetic fibre is made to mirror the look and feel of real silk.

Microfiber: Very fine fibres, usually spun from Polyester, Nylon, or Polypropylene threads.

Nylon: A tough, protein like fibre that is known for its resistance to staining.

Polyester: A strong fibre that is resistant to mildew and staining. Polyester fibres are quick drying.

Polypropylene: The most used synthetic fibre, polypropylene is non-shedding, hard wearing and highly stain resistant.

Viscose: Manufactured using a blend of man-made rayon and cellulose fibres. Avoid placing this material in areas prone to wet spills or high moisture; best suited for medium to low traffic rooms.

Room Scene

Wool

Manufactured using the fleece of a sheep. It is naturally flame resistant and is highly durable. Wool is able to retain about a third of its weight in moisture; avoid wet cleaning methods that oversaturate the rug and high moisture areas such as the bathroom.

Cowhide

The natural skin and hair of a cow. While often undyed, it is sometimes coloured in soft prints and patterns.
