What Harms Your Rug?
- Water Stain - Slow Drying Will Allow Dye-like Materials to Dissolve out of the Backing Yarns and Wick to the Face, Leaving a Discoloration – It May Be Impossible for a Professional to Remove It
- Dry Rot - Is Caused by Mildew, Wetness or Animal Stains
- Latex - Used for Holding the Backing onto the Rug, Which Will Deteriorate as soon as It Leaves the Manufacturer. This Is Caused by Gases in the Air, Floor Waxes, Traffic and Sunlight
- Ripples - Results from Dragging Heavy Furniture over the Rug
- Animal Stains - Urine Is an Acid that Changes the Color of Dyes and Weakens the Fibers over Time. The Residue Will Leave a Yellowish or Brownish Stain on the Face of the Carpet and Odor in the Fiber. Odors from Animal Wastes Are Almost Impossible to Remove.
- Dirt - Acts like a Razor Cutting the Fibers
- Grease Soot Film - Originates from Cooking and Heating
- Traffic Dirt - Abrasives Tracked in on the Bottoms of Your Shoes
- Insects - Moths and Carpet Beetles Eat Wool Fibers
- Bacteria - Results from Spills that Penetrate Deep into the Fiber, Leaving a Bad Odor
- Fungus - Mildew, Mold, Rust and Bacteria
- Sunlight - Can Cause Fading and Discoloration
- Pile Crushing - Foot Traffic and Heavy Furniture Indentations
- Shrinkage - Results from Humidity in the Air and Slow Drying in some Fibers
- Sugar Spill - Can Cause Dye to Bleed and Leave Discoloration on the Surface
