FAQ – Frequently asked questions about wool carpets
Wool carpets offer numerous advantages over carpets made from other materials:
- Longevity: Wool is a very robust material that is ideal for high traffic areas. The natural elasticity of the wool fibers ensures that they retain their shape and remain resistant to pressure points even after long periods of use. This makes wool carpets a long-term investment.
- Dirt-repellent: Wool has natural dirt-repellent properties. The outer layer of the wool fiber contains lanolin, a waxy fat that makes it difficult for dirt and dust to penetrate. This makes wool carpets easier to clean and stay looking clean for longer. Wool also absorbs fine dust and allergens from the air, which helps improve indoor air quality.
- Comfort: Wool carpets are particularly soft and offer a pleasant walking experience. They give any room a warm and cozy atmosphere and are ideal for living and sleeping areas. Wool also has natural insulating properties that help retain heat and keep the room warm in winter.
- Thermal insulation: Wool is an excellent insulator. It stores heat and ensures a pleasant indoor climate. In winter, a wool carpet keeps the room warm, while in summer it helps regulate the temperature by absorbing and releasing excess moisture.
- Moisture regulation: Wool can absorb up to 30% of its own weight in moisture without feeling damp. This contributes to a healthy indoor climate as the moisture is released again when necessary, keeping the humidity in the room at a comfortable level.
- Sustainability: Wool is a natural and renewable raw material that is biodegradable. Wool is obtained by shearing sheep, which does not cause permanent damage and can be repeated regularly.
Lint on a wool rug is a normal process that occurs in the first few weeks after purchase. During this time, loose fibers that were created during production come loose. This is a natural process that also occurs in high-quality wool carpets:
- Initial phase: A wool carpet may shed more in the first few weeks after purchase. This is because excess fibers that were not completely removed during production come loose. This phase is completely normal and is not a sign of inferior quality.
- Regular vacuuming: Regular vacuuming, ideally once a week, can effectively remove loose fibers. Use a vacuum cleaner without a rotating brush to avoid putting unnecessary strain on the fibers. A vacuum cleaner with good suction power and a special nozzle for carpets is ideal.
- Reduction in lint: After a few weeks, the lint should decrease significantly. The carpet stabilizes and maintains its soft, fluffy structure. However, it is normal for some fibers to be released occasionally even after this initial phase.
- Long-term care: Even after the initial phase, it is important to maintain the carpet regularly. This helps it stay beautiful for a long time and maintain its quality. Occasionally tapping and shaking the carpet can also help remove loose fibers.
A dining room rug should be large enough so that all chair legs rest on the rug even when extended:
- Table dimensions: Measure the length and width of your dining table. Add at least 60-70 centimeters on each side to ensure that the chairs stay on the carpet even when pulled back. This additional surface area ensures that the chairs are not constantly pulled over the edge of the carpet when pushed back and forth.
- Shape of the table: Consider the shape of your dining table. A rectangular carpet is suitable for rectangular tables, while round tables harmonize better with a round carpet. An oval table goes well with an oval rug. Make sure that the carpet reflects the shape of the table to create a harmonious overall look.
- Room size: The rug should fit the size of the room. An area rug that is too small can appear distracting, while an area rug that is too large can overcrowd the space. Leave at least 30-45 centimeters of space between the edge of the rug and the walls to make the room appear balanced and well-proportioned.
- Furniture Arrangement: Place the rug so that it blends harmoniously with the existing furniture arrangement. This ensures a balanced overall appearance and a pleasant room atmosphere.

Cleaning a light wool carpet requires special care to maintain its beauty and quality:
- Regular vacuuming: Vacuum the carpet regularly to remove dirt and dust. Use a vacuum cleaner without a rotating brush to protect the fibers. Be sure to vacuum the entire area of the carpet evenly to ensure even cleaning.
- Instant Stain Treatment: Treat stains immediately by gently blotting with a clean cloth. Use as little water as possible to avoid damaging the fibers. Avoid rubbing vigorously as this will cause the stain to penetrate deeper into the fibers and can damage the structure of the carpet.
- Mild detergents: Use mild detergents or special wool cleaners. Test the cleaner on an inconspicuous area to make sure it doesn't cause discoloration. Be sure to use the cleaner according to the manufacturer's instructions and rinse thoroughly to avoid leaving any residue.
- Professional cleaning: Have the carpet professionally cleaned occasionally to remove ingrained dirt. Professional cleaning will help refresh the fibers and extend the life of the carpet. Choose a cleaning service that has experience with wool carpets and uses gentle cleaning procedures.
- Care between cleanings: Make sure to ventilate the carpet regularly and protect it from direct sunlight to prevent the colors from fading. Rotate the carpet occasionally to ensure even wear.
Removing stains from wool carpets requires a gentle approach:
- Act immediately: React as quickly as possible to prevent seepage and drying into the fibers. The quicker you act, the easier it will be to remove the stain. Dry stains are more difficult to remove and may require more intensive cleaning methods.
- Blot, don't rub: Blot the stain with a clean, damp cloth to loosen it. Avoid rubbing vigorously as this can damage the fibers. Work from the outside in to prevent the stain from spreading.
- Mild detergents: Use mild detergents or special wool cleaners. Test the cleaner on an inconspicuous area to ensure it does not cause discoloration or damage. Follow the cleaning product manufacturer's instructions and use the product sparingly.
- Rinse: Rinse the treated area with clean water to remove any remaining cleaning agent. Then pat the area dry and allow it to dry completely. Avoid excessive moisture on the carpet to prevent mold growth.
- Professional cleaning: If you have stubborn stains, it may make sense to get professional cleaning. Experts have special techniques and cleaning products to effectively remove stains without damaging the carpet. A professional cleaning service can also remove deep-rooted dirt and restore the carpet to its original condition.
