PRODUCT CARE 

Vacuum regularly. Sweep the carpet surface with a soft broom or vacuum clean it in the direction of the pile. Blot stains immediately, possibly with very little water, dry instantly with white absorbing cloth and hair dryer. If, after the above treatments, you’re not able to remove the stains, or if the rug is placed in heavy traffic public areas, we recommend the service of a professional cleaner. In the first months of use the loss of fluff due to manual finishing is normal.
