What is the difference between a garden carpet and a regular rug?

Our garden carpets or outdoor mats are made of different materials than a typical indoor rug. If you buy our polypropylene outdoor mats, you get a waterproof carpet that is resistant to damage when it comes to external situations like mud, rain, etc. They are made of sturdier materials that last longer. This doesn’t mean that you have to use our outdoor mat for outdoor use only. You can use our balcony floor mats to spruce up your indoors as well. They come in extra handy when you have pets like dogs or cats that have a tendency to damage rugs in general. Since they are made of stronger material, they can withstand more damage and last a lot longer than regular indoor mats. 

Our outdoor mats are also waterproof carpets, which means they can withstand rain without causing damage to the rug. You can also repurpose it for indoor use if you have children at home. Water resistance can help with the cleanup because children have a tendency to be clumsy and spill food and beverages everywhere. So if you want to save up time and money on cleaning up after spillage, you should look at one of our polypropylene outdoor mats or waterproof carpets.

If I buy an outdoor mat, is it a completely waterproof carpet?

Sadly, the answer is no. Our outdoor mats are not completely waterproof, but they are water resistant. This means that they absorb a lot less water than regular rugs, which makes it harder for them to get wet. Since they absorb less water, they are also quicker to dry and easier to clean.

If I buy a balcony carpet, what are the steps I need to take to maintain it?

Your balcony floor mats require little to no maintenance, which is what makes them so sturdy and such a viable choice for your outdoor seating. You can read on to find a list of tips to maintain your outdoor rug so that you can get the most life out of it as possible.

Clean your outdoor carpet at least once a month

The easiest way to maintain your outdoor rug is to clean it regularly. It avoids the build up of dirt and grime, and you can clean out all the collected mud or dirt a lot more easily. Remember, the fresher the dirt is, the easier it is to clean.

Dust off all the excess dirt from your outdoor mat

The easiest step to cleaning your outdoor carpet is to dust off all the excess dirt from it. If you’re keeping your outdoor rug outside your main door, chances are you have dragged in mud and dirt from your travels. Pick it up and vigorously brush off all the excess dirt when you start cleaning so at least all the big chunks are dusted off and you only have to take care of the smaller ones.

Use the vacuum cleaner to get rid of the smaller dirt particles in your outdoor rug

After you’re done getting rid of all the big pieces, it’s time to tackle the smaller, tougher-to-reach dirt particles in your garden carpet. Take your vacuum cleaner and run it thoroughly through your mat to clean out all the remainder of the built-up dirt in your rug. 

Scrub your outdoor rug clean if you want to deep clean 

If you want to deep clean your outdoor mat, then scrubbing is the most effective way to go about it. Make a cleaning solution with your dish soap and water. Be careful to not make the solution too strong so that you don’t risk damaging your garden carpet. Take a brush and scrub a small area of your rug clean to make sure it doesn’t damage your rug. If everything is fine, then you can proceed to take the brush and lather the cleaning liquid on both sides of your outdoor rug. Let it sit for a few minutes and absorb the cleaning solution before rinsing it out thoroughly. 

You want to make sure you get all the soap out of the rug before you dry it out, so we recommend you clean your outdoor rug on a slope or slanted surface. Then you leave it out to dry over a railing or hanging surface like a fence so that all the excess water can drip out and the rug can dry thoroughly. 

If you don’t want to scrub the rug clean every time, you don’t have to. Just dusting it off and vacuuming the rug once a month is more than enough to make sure your outdoor mat or balcony mat is clean enough.
