new eco houses
More and more people are becoming environment conscious these days and are turning to eco-friendly products for their homes. One such product is the natural material rugs used as area rugs or accent rugs. Bamboo rug comes under this category. Bamboo rug is a very elegant, eco-friendly natural rug and is gaining popularity in recent days. The beautiful bamboo rug adds beauty to all types of flooring, including carpeted floors as well as hardwood, ceramic, vinyl and marble floors. They are durable and a classy addition to any type of home decor whether it is conventional and classic or contemporary and trendy.
Most of these rugs are made from mature 5 or 6 year old bamboo trees from the Anji mountains in China. The bamboo is cleaned and kiln dried to remove excess moisture and prevent warping. When the rugs are manufactured, they are fitted with non-slip rug pad backing to prevent skidding on smooth surfaces. They are also treated chemically to give them longer life and prevent fading. They are mostly for indoor use like area rugs or accent rugs. Sometimes, the bamboo rugs are also used in closed outdoor areas like gazebos, screened porch etc. These bamboo rugs come in attractive colors and if maintained properly, the color can last for a lifetime. Here are some tips for proper maintenance of bamboo rugs:
1. Keep bamboo rugs away from direct sunlight as far as possible, to avoid fading of colors.
2. If rug is to be used outdoors, make sure to store it inside after use.
3. Keep bamboo rugs away from water sources or rain. If bamboo rugs get wet, wipe them dry with a cloth, then hang them up to completely airdry. Never roll up a bamboo rug which is partially wet because it may lead to mold and mildew formation.
4. Finally, before laying the bamboo rug again on the floor, make sure that the floor area is completely dry.
These small steps can ensure the rug’s longevity. Besides being eco-friendly, the colorful bamboo rug can add a touch of class to any room in a home.
