Act quickly
Blot, do not rub, the spill immediately using a clean, dry cloth.
Professional-grade stain repellent that preserves the look, feel & breathability of your rug — quietly defending against the spills of everyday life.
Our stain repellent treatment is a protective coating applied to rug fibres after the weaving process is complete. It creates an invisible barrier around each fibre that repels liquid spills and resists staining, giving you extra time to clean up before a spill becomes a permanent mark.
The treatment is safe, non-toxic, and does not alter the natural texture or colour of the rug.
The coating is designed to work in the background. Your rug still feels like a handmade Rugkari rug, while the fibres gain extra resistance against everyday spills and stains.
Blot, do not rub, the spill immediately using a clean, dry cloth.
Work from the outer edge of the spill inward to avoid spreading.
For liquid spills, absorb as much as possible with a dry cloth first.
If needed, use a small amount of mild soap diluted in water. Gently blot and rinse.
Allow the rug to air dry completely. Do not use heat or hairdryers on the rug.
Do not scrub or aggressively rub treated rugs. It weakens the fibre and the protective coating.
Avoid bleach, harsh chemicals, and solvent-based cleaners on treated rugs.
The repellent treatment lasts 1–2 years under normal use. Re-treatment is available on request.
Professional rug cleaning is recommended every 12–18 months for treated rugs.
Stain repellent treatment significantly reduces staining but does not make rugs completely stain-proof. Prompt action is always essential.
Stain repellent treatment is available as an optional add-on for most Rugkari rugs at the time of purchase. It is clearly marked with the Stain Repellent badge on eligible product pages.
