Sustainable and Eco-Friendly

Every jute small rug is made from fibres of the jute plant, primarily grown in India and Bangladesh. Jute is a renewable crop that needs very little water and no pesticides to thrive, making it an eco-conscious choice. Alongside its beauty, this rug also provides mild sound absorption and a natural layer of insulation, especially useful on hard floors.

About Jute

Jute is a natural vegetable fibre harvested from the stem of the plant. It is biodegradable, renewable and second only to cotton in worldwide use. Strong yet soft, it makes a sustainable choice for rugs while adding authentic texture to interiors.

Do You Need Underlay?

Semi-thick braided rugs like this one are heavy and usually stay in place without underlay. However, if used on hard surfaces such as wood or tiles, anti-slip rug underlay is recommended for extra cushioning and stability. Underlay can also reduce noise and extend the life of your rug.

“Underlay makes SUCH a difference not only in keeping the rug in place but also in making it feel much nicer to walk on.”

Care and Maintenance

With proper care, your jute small rug will retain its natural look and feel for years:

• Vacuum regularly on a low suction setting
• Blot spills quickly with a clean, dry cloth
• Avoid damp or humid spaces
• Rotate occasionally for even wear
• Trim or tuck in any loose strands if they appear

Like all plant-fibre rugs, jute may shed lightly in the first few months and is not as hardwearing as wool. This is normal and does not affect the quality.
