Outdoor rugs as colourful eye-catchers

 

Brighten up your terrace with an outdoor carpet

With an outdoor rug, you can give your terrace a colourful makeover in no time. But an outdoor rug is so much more than a decorative item. It covers up flaws in your paving. It protects your (expensive) floor against dirt and stains. You use it to mark out areas and ensure unity and harmony between your furniture.

At Online Tapijten, you'll find outdoor rugs that are as beautiful as they are practical. Take your pick!

 

What is an outdoor carpet?

Simply put: a carpet suitable for outdoor use. So it can withstand all weather conditions - from bright sunshine to pouring rain. To withstand a beating, outdoor rugs are made of weather-resistant materials. Often with a special weaving style (usually a flat weave) and manufacturing method to ensure durability.

 

What materials are outdoor rugs made of?

Often made of synthetic fibres with polypropylene, a material that is resistant to stains and fungus, hardly discolours under the influence of the sun, and does not absorb water. Nylon fibres also qualify, thanks to their resilience and resistance to stains and intensive walking. Polyester is also an option, although it does not tolerate as much foot traffic. Acrylic is also possible, especially if you prefer a natural look. Just keep in mind that the material is a bit more sensitive.  

 

Are there outdoor rugs in natural materials?

Yes! There are outdoor rugs in bamboo, hemp and sisal. They look very natural, and are perfect for bohemian, rustic or country styles. Although these materials are sustainable and eco-friendly, they are less able to withstand rain and sun. Preferably put them in a somewhat sheltered spot such as a covered terrace or balcony.

 

How to maintain an outdoor carpet?

It depends on the material, but generally it requires little effort to keep your outdoor rug clean. Most can be brushed or wiped clean. Be sure to pat them down regularly too to remove superficial dirt and dust.

Something spilled? Then shoot into action quickly with a mild detergent. Some carpets tolerate bleach - useful for stubborn dirt. Usually it is enough to clean your carpet with water: a quick spray with the garden hose and you're done.

Tip: check carefully in advance what your outdoor carpet is resistant to before cleaning haphazardly. In this blog you will find more information to maintain your outdoor carpet.

 

Do outdoor carpets come in all colours, sizes and styles?

Absolutely! At Online Carpets, you'll be spoilt for choice. In terms of brands and patterns, as well as colours, styles and materials. So you will always find a carpet to your taste, with an eye for your practical requirements.

Tip: outdoor carpets are a good place to stand out. After all, you lay them to brighten up your outdoor space. Some inspiration tips:

 

Can you lay an outdoor carpet indoors too?

It certainly can. It is even recommended if there is a lot of walking inside, or if you have playing children or pets. Because of their robust materials, outdoor carpets are the perfect choice for households with occasional spills or intensive play. They therefore come in handy in kitchens, playrooms and dining areas.

Remember: the reverse is not true. Never lay an indoor carpet outside, as it will soon lose its charm and other qualities.
