FAQs
Is the backing safe for hardwood floors?
The PVC non-skid backing is generally safe for hardwood floors. However, as with any rug backing, we recommend testing in an inconspicuous area or consulting your floor manufacturer if you have specific concerns about finishes.
How durable is bamboo as a rug material?
Bamboo is a strong and durable natural material, well-suited for everyday use. Its resilience makes it a practical choice for high-traffic areas when properly cared for.
Can this rug be used outdoors?
This rug is designed for indoor use. Exposure to direct sunlight and moisture for extended periods can damage the natural bamboo and affect its appearance and integrity.
What causes the slight variations in bamboo strip width?
Bamboo is a natural product, and variations in the diameter of the culms (stalks) lead to slight differences in strip width. This is a natural characteristic and part of the rug's unique charm.
How often should I clean the rug?
Regular sweeping or vacuuming is recommended for daily upkeep. Spot clean spills as they happen. For a more thorough clean, a damp cloth wipe-down can be done periodically as needed.
What are the exact dimensions of the rug?
The rug has dimensions of 300 cm in height (length) and 80 cm in width. Please allow for a tolerance of +/- 0.5 cm in the width of the bamboo strips.
Troubleshooting
Rug not laying flat
Ensure the rug has been unrolled and left flat for at least 24 hours. Placing heavy objects on the edges can also help flatten it. Check that the floor underneath is even.
Slipping despite non-skid backing
Ensure the floor surface is clean and dry. The non-skid backing may be less effective on very plush carpets. Consider a rug gripper pad if persistent slipping occurs.
Minor discoloration or uneven tone
This is a characteristic of natural bamboo. Minor variations in color and strip width are normal. If significant discoloration occurs, check for exposure to direct sunlight or moisture.
Difficulty cleaning spills
Wipe up spills immediately with a damp cloth. Avoid soaking the bamboo. For stubborn stains, use a mild detergent solution and wipe dry. Test cleaning solutions in an inconspicuous area first.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Unroll the rug carefully and allow it to lay flat in its desired location for at least 24 hours to acclimate and smooth out any creases from packaging. Ensure the area where the rug will be placed is clean and dry.
Compatibility:
This rug is compatible with most standard flooring types, including hardwood, laminate, tile, and low-pile carpet. The non-skid PVC backing is designed to grip effectively without damaging most surfaces. However, always test a small, inconspicuous area if you are concerned about potential reactions with specific flooring finishes.
Care Instructions:
- Daily Cleaning: Sweep or vacuum regularly (without a beater bar) to remove dust and debris. For spot cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap if necessary. Wipe dry immediately.
- Deep Cleaning: For more thorough cleaning, use a slightly damp cloth. Avoid excessive moisture, as bamboo is a natural material. Do not use abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.
- Maintenance: Periodically check the rug to ensure it remains flat and the backing is functioning correctly. Rotate the rug occasionally if placed in direct sunlight to ensure even fading.
