Kvadrat Dashes Rugs
DASHES RUGS
DASHES RUGS
Designed by Daniel Costa
A bold design in a twill construction using felted mill spun yarns for both weft and warp, Dashes is a flat woven rug that takes the classic two coloured pied de poule and abstracts it into a multicoloured polydimensional graphic.
The warp is built out of yarns in six different colours, a plain colour used in alternation with a colourfull multicoloured stripe. The weft sees a slightly thicker yarn used, with two contrasting neutral colours interchanged. On the top of each rug the dark colour builds the rip of the twill and on the lower part the rip is woven in a lighter colour. The locking yarn corresponds to the rip of the twill.
A design that combines well with all natural flooring materials such as oak, slate, concrete, and terrazzo, Dashes is suitable for medium to heavy residential and commercial use.

PERFORMANCE
FIRE TESTS
-ASTM E 662 -ASTM E 648 Class I -EN 13501-1 Bfl-s1 -ASTM D 2859/CPSC FF 1-70/FF 2-70, 16 CFR 1630 -There are differing requirements concerning the flame-retardancy of textiles dependent on the area of application, country or even region. Our textiles pass the majority of international standards and are also tested for a selection of regional requirements.
TRAFFIC
-Suitable for medium to heavy residential and commercial use with exceptions of stairways, corridors or with the use of castors. -A steel tumbler with rubber studs rolls freely in a rotating drum and wears the surface of the test samples inside of the drum. After 5.000 and 20.000 turns the sample is examined and rated by five inspectors based on the changes in its surface structure and colour. -Rugs that meet the minimum requirements of the test are rated from 21 (worst) to 23 (best) for residential use and 31 (worst) to 33 (best) for residential and commercial use.
LIGHTFASTNESS
-4-6 (ISO 1-8) -ISO 105-B02 -Lightfastness relates to the ability of a textile to retain its colour under light. When testing for lightfastness, samples are exposed to artificial daylight for a specified period. -The evaluation scale ranges from 1 (worst) to 8 (best). An increase of one point corresponds to a doubling of the lightfastness, i.e. the same fading takes twice as long.
CARE
CARE INSTRUCTIONS RUGS
Regular cleaning is important in order to keep the rug looking its best and to prolong its life. Dust and dirt wear down the rug and also reduce its fire-retardant properties.
BAMBOO VISCOSE
Do not walk on or rub a wet bamboo viscose rug, as this will damage the structure of the yarn. It will take a few days for a bamboo rug to fully dry.
SILK RUGS
Every stain, including plain water, should only be treated with soda water. Vinegar or tap water should never be used.
STAIN REMOVAL
Remove stains immediately. Place a clean, wet cotton cloth and leave it on the stain until it has absorbed it. If needed, dab the stain by working from the edge of the stain inwards. Do not rub to remove the stain.
REGULAR CARE
-Kvadrat rugs are made with care to last. To make sure your rug maintains its vitality and character over a long lifetime, it helps to take good care of it. -We recommend vacuum cleaning your rug at least once a week using a vacuum cleaner set to medium power without applying a brush. Always vacuum in the direction of the pile. Please also rotate the rug frequently to prevent wear and fading in the same place. -Ideally, the humidity in the room where the rug is located should be around 50%. If humidity falls below 40%, we recommend spraying your rug with water to avoid the yarn to become dry and brittle.
