With a massive choice of wonderful design and colour options, vinyl offers a cost effective way to create a stunning look with all of the benefits of a floorcovering that is clean and sterile. Unlike 'old-fashioned' cushion floor the new generation of 'vinyl flooring' offers computer generated designs that now actually feel like the produycts that they immitate with fuly textured 'living surgfaces'. Stones, tiles, slates and woods give the full lifelike effect without any of the drawbacks of the real thing whilst remaining warm underfoot combined with a high level of 'slip resistance', even when wet.

Through proper care and maintenance, your rug will look better and last even longer, here's what you need to do. Wool Rugs On opening, re-roll your rug pile out and leave in a warm room for 24 hours before putting in place. This will help to reduce wrinkles and curling from packing. Some loss or 'balling' of surface fibres is normal on new wool rugs and is not a defect. This should reduce with normal use and regular cleaning, with a hand brush. Do not vacuum. Use a slip-resist pad to help keep your rug in place and provide additional protection for hard floors.
