Taking Care Of Your Karastan Rugs

By: Vikram Kumar Home | Home-and-Family


One of the world’s finest area rug manufacturers is Karastan, making designs with high quality and luxurious appearance to delight customers. These beautiful rugs are available in handmade, as well as machine-made quality. Some fashion magazines started to call these creations as â€mystery rugs.†The appearance of these Karastan rugs might look delicate but looks can be deceiving. A lot of people still possess these rugs way back in 1928, which was when the company started.

Every Karastan rug is made of high quality fibers. Mostly, each rug is carefully made with 100 percent beaten wool from New Zealand without small fibers. Therefore it does not cause any discomfort to people who suffer from allergies and asthma. It’s highly durable and cleaning it is trouble-free.

Karastan provides you the following maintenance guidelines, so you will have longer years of using and enjoying your Karastan rug.

1.Put a pad under the rug. This is highly recommended because it prevents your rug from slipping, which may not only cause it to wear off but also endangers the occupants in the house. A pad helps in holding the rug in place and in keeping its original shape. Ask recommendations from your friendly Karastan dealer what type of pad should you use.
2.Rotate the rug occasionally. This will avoid wearing off in some areas of your Karastan rug. Also, this will prevent exposing certain areas to sunlight streams through your window. Rotating helps prevent fading.
3.Clean the rug with a vacuum cleaner frequently. This is the finest way of removing unwanted dust and dirt. If your rug has a border, an extra care should be done to prevent the border from being drawn to the vacuum. This may damage the border, thus, taking away the beauty and elegance of your Karastan rug. As recommended, vacuum it twice a week.
4.Seek professional maintenance services every couple of years. To preserve the beauty of your Karastan rug for years to come, this is recommended.

However, there are instances, like when you accidentally spill something on your rug, which needs immediate attention. Since its original wool fibers resist automatically the liquid spills to soak in, an early treatment is needed to prevent stains. Here, Karastan lists down the recommended steps on what to do in cases of spills.
1.Never rub it off. This only worsens the stain. Smoothly blot until all the moisture is out.
2.Use lukewarm water. In removing a residual stain, use little amount of lukewarm water. A little amount of vinegar and shampoo mixture also helps in removing stains.
3.Scrap substance up using blunt knife. If at all possible, scrape in a lying direction.
4.Never step on the rug until completely dried. Once it dries, use the vacuum in that area.

Having to own this rug may require a large investment for some of us, but why worry when you can afford it? After all, it really pays off because it adds the elegant look of your home. Since it is produced using high standards, which features the interlocked unit, you can be assured of its exceptional durability. The stunning texture and pattern of each rug makes the Karastan brand excel among others. You can choose from the variety of styles they produce to suit your taste.
