Wool A Miracle Fiber For Rugs
Wool carpets, and rugs are cherished by many for their multitude of benefits.
​

Renowned for its warmth and durability; can withstand high foot traffic areas and retain their beauty over many years. The fibers possess an inherent crimp, which provides a natural resilience against heavy use.

Why Clean Area Rugs Outside The Home
Rugs are made of absorbent materials like wool, silk and cotton, these absorbent fibers help keep your home clean by absorbing pollutants. A natural fiber rug can hold it's weight in dry soil, more soil than you might imagine. To clean a wool rug it benefits from deep restorative cleaning process of dry soil removal and full immersion rug washing. This type of cleaning is only possible with in-plant rug cleaning.
Hot water extraction, carpet steam cleaning, wool carpet shampoo and home carpet cleaning rental machines fail to remove deeply embedded soils in wool carpets and other materials Vs. a full wash.
Are Wool Carpets & Area Rugs Hard
To Wash?
Some rugs can be hard to wash, for example, color issues and wear.
In some rug productions, rugs are touched up with ink and chalk to hide imperfections or damage.

Our workshop is full of state-of-the-art rug cleaning equipment as a specialized cleaners for addressing the cleaning needs such as odor and stains removal of new vintage and antique rugs.
How To Dry Wool
After washing, We use a variety of water removal methods including centrifugal spinning or extraction to remove water from your wool rugs.
-
Our rug centrifuges remove water from rugs and involve spinning the rugs at fifteen hundred RPMs to extract excess water.
​
-
Much like the spin cycle on a clothes washing machine, wet wool rugs go from soaking wet to 95% moisture removal and dry to the touch in under 2 minutes.
​
-
Fast, efficient wool drying is important, and our specialized equipment is not portable and cannot be used in your home or approximated with carpet steam cleaning.
