Proper cleaning techniques can keep your rug in great condition.

Cotton rugs – the history and science of rugs

Wool is known for its natural beauty, durability and softness, making it the ideal material for luxury rugs. These rugs not only bring a fabulous and exotic look to a room, but also add warmth and comfort to the interior. Each piece is handmade from high quality wool and is crafted with attention to detail and quality. The handmade quality guarantees precision workmanship and each rug is a unique piece of craftsmanship. Wool is a natural material that brings a feeling of warmth and comfort to a room. It is known for its durability and softness, making it an ideal choice for long-lasting luxury rugs. They are the perfect choice for those looking for a stylish and elegant addition to their home.

Pilling is normal with cotton rugs. It occurs when small fibers come loose from the rug. Depending on the material composition of the rug, the degree of shedding also varies. Gently vacuum the rug with a vacuum cleaner set on a low setting to reduce shedding.

Cotton rugs may initially show some fluffiness, but this is not a fault. It will disappear with use, especially if vacuumed more frequently at first. It is worth moving the rug occasionally so that moths do not breed under it.

Cotton rug cleaning and technical information

Cotton rugs are made from different types of fibers that have specific properties and require different cleaning methods. Our cotton rug cleaning company is experienced in cleaning all common types of cotton rugs.

Overview of cotton rug cleaning services

Before starting the cleaning procedure, rug repair or restoration of rugs and fringes is arranged if necessary. If your rug has sustained damage, for example due to wear, tear or loss of colour, cotton rug cleaners can offer repair and restoration services. Experienced professionals can repair damaged fibers, re-dye faded areas, or restore the rug’s texture. These services are especially valuable for expensive or antique rugs that have a high value.

Phase 1 > mechanical brushing and knocking with the KIRBY® & HYLA® machine system. Tapping with a fine rotary brush loosens coarse mechanical dirt trampled deep into the rug fibre. The rug is ready for the next knocking process with the electric knocker, which aims to open and fluff the rug fibre. The whole process serves to loosen dust, hair, dried mud and dirt in the warp.

Phase 2 > chemical gentle cleaning – enzymatic/foam pre-spraying releases water soluble or dry foam soils. Enzymes will also remove contaminants that subsequent steps may not always release including removing grease and grime and releasing encapsulated odors.

Phase 3 > manual or machine cleaning combined with bath and soak of the rug. This is always determined by the type of rug and the soiling of the rug, so as to avoid deterioration and achieve the maximum possible cleaning result. Cotton Rug Cleaners offers a special cleaning method that will revive the colours and restore your rug to its original beauty. This service is ideal for rugs that are located in areas with direct sunlight or are exposed to frequent use.

Phase 4 > for cotton rugs, a nourishing application of natural lanolin is used to restore the natural properties of the fiber and fabric. Lanolin regeneration brings revival to the fibre and also brings protection to the rug from adverse external influences. The rug will show no signs of fraying, will not break, will gain a brighter colour and will feel soft and nourished to the touch.

Phase 5 > of rug drying is quite crucial. Although the final disinfection and antibacterial treatment with ozone (O₃) is the most effective possible, as (O₃) is a powerful oxidant that effectively kills bacteria, viruses, moulds and odours and is therefore used by our company for the final disinfection of surfaces and textiles, thorough drying is important. This is because moisture can affect the effectiveness of the final antibacterial treatment and the disinfecting efficacy of both chemical and ozonation.

Residual moisture may still linger in materials after chemical or ozone disinfection, which continues to promote mold growth and possible bacterial proliferation. Therefore, at our dry cleaners, we consider it important to thoroughly re-dry materials after ozonation or chemical disinfection to prevent the re-growth of microorganisms.

Drying rugs and getting them thoroughly dry is absolutely key in terms of expertly executed cotton rug maintenance. Our company uses the AeroFlow® accumulated / radiant heat technology system from Thermotec AG. Contact drying with uniform drying of rugs relies on AeroFlow® technology, which efficiently transfers heat to the fabric and fibres via integrated chamotte heating plates that distribute the accumulated heat deep into the surface of the material for the required time via the built-in thermostat with FlexiSmart temperature and humidity sensor.

Drying rugs with the AeroFlow® system is therefore based on the proportional flow and radiation of heat to ensure fast and even drying of the rug. Thanks to the lower airflow velocity and low surface temperature of the heating plate, dust is not blown away and the rugs dry evenly. The independent VDE institute has verified that only quality materials meeting the certification criteria are used for the product “Thermotec storage heaters” and awards the products the VDE GS label.

Phase 6 > disinfection and odour removal, as rugs can absorb odours over time, especially when exposed to moisture, pets or spilled liquids. Professional cleaners offer disinfection and odor neutralization services that will remove even the most stubborn odors and leave your rug fresh and smelling good. The antibacterial treatment is done by deep disinfection with UV irradiation and ozone vacuum machine “BIO-OZON”, all without the need for chemicals with the highest possible efficiency in terms of removing mites, viruses, bacteria, odors and mold.

Phase 7 > application of protective impregnation including deodorization of the fibre after disinfection with ozone and UV. After cleaning – drying – disinfection, application of a special protective agent that repels dirt and stains from the British company PROCHEM® is recommended. These agents form an invisible protective layer that prevents liquids from penetrating the rug fibres. This will make your rug better able to resist soiling and easier to maintain.
