Handmade rugs are pieces of art and can
decorate a room to an extent beyond imagination. But their wash care requires technical
expertise that cannot be done domestically.
Rugs
and carpets are those unique home textile products that offer an aesthetic as
well as a functional usage. Rugs and carpets have a very rich history of their
making. They were traditionally made in central Asia where there was abundance
of wool. Of course Australia, New Zealand and upper Europe also have a lot of
sheep rearing, but these wool varieties are finer in quality, making them more
suitable for apparels and not rugs.
Rugs
were thus handmade out of the coarse variety of wool. This coarse wool helps in
this way that they can absorb soil and dirt more effectively than the finer
varieties. Being coarse, they are more strong fibers and can withstand wear and
tear of the traffic more effectively.
Great
artworks can be made out of rugs and being made out of wool, they help in
keeping the room warm. But they also demand regular cleaning, although not very
often. Normally, a cleaning is required every 2-3 years for maintaining hygiene
inside the room. However, Rugs Cleanings cannot be done indoors as they
require very precise cleaning methods to be followed. Handmade
rugs cannot be machine washed so that its beauty is not affected. They
can also not be washed with harsh chemicals that will destroy the texture and
make the fibers brittle and weak to wear and tear. Thus handmade rugs require professional cleaning stations for their
proper care.
Rugs cleanings stations ensure proper washing
with the help of soap and mechanical beating. They also dry the rugs properly
before delivering them back. They ensure that the original fresh and clean look
of the rugs is obtained back, without any adverse affect on their durability.
