Seagrass rugs require the same maintenance that most floor coverings do: vacuum regularly and attend to any spills right away. We recommend that you vacuum one to three times per week, depending on the activity level in your home. A straw- or hay-like smell is common in new seagrass products. Many seagrass rug owners report that this odor dissipates within a few weeks and is replaced by a more subtle smell that many find refreshing. Humidity can increase the smell, so expect a strong scent if you are returning to your home or vacation hideaway that has been sealed up for weeks or months. As Sisal stair carpets are natural fibre rugs, they’re quite absorbent and so spills should be cleaned as soon as possible. Do not steam clean or use wet shampoo on your carpet.

These variations are inherent characteristics of the natural fiber, adding depth and visual interest to the rug. Whether placed in a living room, family room, dining room, entryway, or hallway, Seagrass rugs bring a touch of warmth and sophistication to any space.
