Learn how to clean and maintain your PUEBCO reversible jacquard rug with simple steps, including color-transfer precautions and odor removal tips.
Quick Answer
To keep your PUEBCO reversible jacquard rug in top shape, wash it alone, treat odors with a baking soda soak, and always separate it from light-colored items to prevent dye transfer.
Why Reversible Jacquard Rugs Need Special Care
The reversible jacquard rug from PUEBCO is woven with recycled yarns, which gives it a unique character but also means slight color variations from the photos are normal. The production process can leave traces of machine oil, causing a smell that fades with proper washing.
Because the dyes are not fully set, friction can cause color to transfer to other fabrics. This is why the rug should always be washed on its own and kept away from white or pale-colored items.
What to Expect from the Rug's Materials
Made from acrylic and polyester, the rug is durable and easy to care for, but these synthetic fibers can hold onto odors if not cleaned properly. The reversible design means you get two looks in one, but both sides need the same careful handling.
If you notice a smell when the rug arrives, it's not a defect—it's a common result of the manufacturing process. A simple at-home treatment can help.
Step-by-Step Care Routine
- Wash alone: Always wash the rug separately from other laundry. The dyes can bleed, so never mix it with white or light-colored items. Check the care label for the recommended water temperature before washing.
- Treat odors with a baking soda soak: If the rug has a smell (possibly from machine oil), dissolve a generous amount of baking soda (sodium carbonate) in warm water (40-60°C) and soak the rug for about one hour. Then wash it normally. Repeat if the odor persists. Use warm water, not hot, to avoid setting the smell or damaging the fibers.
- Dry flat and avoid friction: After washing, lay the rug flat to dry. Avoid wringing or rubbing, as friction can cause color transfer and distort the shape. Keep the rug away from direct sunlight to prevent fading.
- Isolate from light-colored items: When storing or placing the rug, keep it away from white or pale-colored furniture and clothing. The dyes may transfer with friction. Use a rug pad to minimize friction and protect the floor underneath.
