rug constructions

Outdoor rugs are made solely of synthetic fibers—including olefin, polyester, polypropylene and PVC—that have been infused with UV inhibitors to minimize fading. While these rugs are mold- and mildew-resistant and able to withstand many hours of direct sunlight, they should not be left in direct sun or standing water, as this will significantly limit rug life. Outdoor rugs can be hand-hooked, hand-woven, braided or machine-made. Hand-hooked, hand-tufted and machine-made constructions typically have a latex backing, which provides additional protection against the elements. Because they are constructed of synthetic fibers, outdoor rugs don’t shed and are highly durable. With proper care, an outdoor rug can last several years for outdoor use and even longer for indoor use. RAI-1214

Hand-Hooked MSRP*: $280 to $340 Manufacturing Time**: 4 to 6 months

Hand-hooked rugs are made using a hand-operated tool to punch strands of U-shaped fibers into a canvas stretched on a frame, creating a looped pile. The height of the pile will vary according to the density and size of the loops. How to identify: A latex backing is attached to the back

of hand-hooked rugs to hold the yarns together. The surface pile will appear rounded. COLLECTIONS: Aura, Bondi Beach, Courtyard, Hurricane,

Namada, Pandemonium, Rain, Storm

*MSRP is based on a 5' x 8' rug size. **Manufacturing time on all rug construction types also includes transport time.

Manufacturing Time**: 4 to 6 months

Manufacturing Time**: 3 to 5 months

Hand-woven rugs (often referred to as flatweaves) are woven on a loom and are known for being lightweight and easy to handle. In most cases, the pattern on the front of the rug can be viewed clearly from both sides, making these rugs reversible.

Machine-made rugs are produced by large machines with hundreds of spindles of fiber that are mechanically woven into a thin mesh backing. A computer dictates the pattern, creating a consistent appearance from rug to rug.

How to identify: Flatweave rugs do not have a raised pile,

SNB-4016

BRAIDED MSRP*: $380 Manufacturing Time**: 3 to 5 months

In braided rugs, fibers are braided together to create bands of solid colored or variegated yarn, which are then sewn together to create the rug. How to identify: These rugs are easily identifiable by their tightly

woven braided fibers. Braided rugs don’t contain backings and the design of a braided rug appears the same on the front as on the back. COLLECTIONS: Sanibel

About Rug Color While the Surya catalog and website provide an excellent guide for evaluating a rug’s design and general appearance, samples provide the best way to accurately evaluate color. Following are some things to keep in mind when evaluating rug color. It is important to convey to consumers that handmade outdoor rugs are made by artisans and are one-of-a-kind pieces. As such, they may have subtle color variations due to the inherent characteristics of natural fibers and dyes. If a customer is looking for an exact color match, machinemade rugs are typically more uniform from rug to rug. Surya uses the Pantone® TPX color guide when assigning colors to its products. Pantone TPX colors provide a standard “language” that is understood by designers around the world, helping to ensure consistency and accuracy when referring to color.

selecting proper rug size

TIPS TO ENSURE PROPER SIZE SELECTION One of the most common reasons that rugs are returned is improper size selection. Choosing the correct rug size is essential to filling a space properly and making the rug look the best it can within a particular living area. It is important to note that appropriate rug size should be determined based on furniture configuration and not on room size alone.

5' x 8' rai-1149

porch/patio #1

Place the rug in front of the sofa. We recommend a rug that is at least 5' x 8', or approximately the length of the sofa. If possible, leave a few inches of exposed floor between the rug and sofa to accent the furniture. When the rug is under a coffee table, make sure the rug is large enough to rest under all four legs of the table.

8' x 10'

porch/patio #2

10' x 13' rai-1149

Tuck the rug under the front legs of the sofa. The back legs of the sofa can be situated on or off of the rug, depending on personal preference. We suggest a rug that is 8' x 10' or larger. The rule of thumb is to leave 18" to 24" between the wall and rug, creating a border of exposed floor that frames the furniture arrangement— equal on all four sides, if possible.

porch/patio #3

rai-1149

Select a room-sized rug that allows the furniture to “float” in the center. We recommend a rug that is 10' x 13' or larger. Leave 12" to 18" of exposed floor to create a border around the rug—equal on all four sides, if possible.

caring for our products

COMMON RUG CHARACTERISTICS All of Surya’s outdoor rugs are handmade by skilled artisans, or in a specialty manufacturing facility, and are checked to ensure that they meet quality standards prior to shipment. We stand behind our products 100 percent and will always accept the return of defective merchandise. However, to avoid unnecessary returns, there are common issues inherent in our products that need to be explained to consumers when they are purchasing a rug. The issues below are not considered defects and, therefore, are not valid reasons for returning a product.

COLOR No two handmade outdoor rugs are the same, which is part of their intrinsic appeal. Slight color variations are not uncommon for handmade rugs, as dye lots may change over a period of time. For the same reason, a rug’s color can vary slightly from the color of the sample since the sample was created at an earlier time. See page 16—about rug color—for additional rug color considerations.

CREASES If a rug has been rolled or folded for shipping, it may have creases. Creases should disappear within a week or two when the rug is laid out flat. Reverse rolling the rug overnight with the pile to the outside will help to expedite crease removal.

ODOR Rugs recently removed from a bag may have an odor. Odors are caused by dyes, yarns and shipping for long distances in sealed wrap. Most odors dissipate within a week once the rug is removed from the shipping wrap.

FADING Outdoor rugs are typically UV stabilized to help resist fading. It’s important to note, however, that repeated exposure to direct sunlight will fade rug colors over time. To optimize rug life and minimize fading, outdoor rugs should not be placed in direct sunlight, if possible.

WEAR

SPROUTS Loose fibers that extend from the top of the rug, or “sprouts,” may occur in outdoor rugs with hand-tufted accents. To remove sprouts, use a small pair of scissors to snip them off even with the rug pile. Never pull out loose fibers, as this can leave a gap in the rug.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE OF OUTDOOR AREA RUGS Area rugs are one of the easiest ways to freshen the look, color and style of an outdoor living space. Designed to dry quickly, resist fading and clean easily, outdoor rugs generally require little maintenance. However, general care is advised to keep these rugs looking their best. Following are tips for extending the life of an outdoor rug. Regularly shake out the rug to remove dust and dirt that may have accumulated. Brooms and manual sweepers are also an effective way to clean outdoor rugs. Clean the rug monthly. Mix a solution of dish soap and lukewarm water in a bucket. Gently scrub the rug using a largenylon brush, making sure to clean both sides of the rug. Rinse the rug with a hose—preferably on a sloped surface such as a driveway to enable the water to easily drain away. Dry the rug in sunlight to prevent mold. Hang the rug over a porch railing in the sunlight or lay the rug out in the sun, making sure to flip it over to ensure that both sides dry thoroughly. Should a spill occur, blot it with a dry cotton cloth as quickly as possible to prevent a stain from setting in. Make sure to wipe underneath the rug as well. If necessary, use a mixture of dish soap and lukewarm water to remove the remainder of the spill and then allow the area to dry. Never let the rug sit in standing water. Outdoor area rugs should be placed in a covered space or in an area where there is good runoff. If an outdoor rug is retaining water, hang it over a railing or lay it in the sun until it is completely dry.

While outdoor rugs are designed to be highly durable, they should be rotated every few months to evenly distribute wear and extend rug life. Adding a rug pad underneath the rug will also help to reduce wear and tear. outdoor training manual | SPRING 2015
