All our rugs are cleaned in a professional rug laundry. The first step of the purification consists thorough tapping of the rug to remove dust and possibly mites. The subsequent pre-wash with a pH neutral soap removes stains. In the main wash of the rugs by hand is thoroughly washed wet - a special soap protects the fibers and keeps the natural wool grease of rugs. By mechanical pressing and centrifuging is carried out a first dewatering, so that the rugs are then dried hanging in permanent convection. less
