Rug Cleaning delivers the perfect solution for the longevity and beauty of your rugs. Rugs are an important element of any interior. They bring warmth, style and comfort to a space. However, their maintenance can be challenging and even regular vacuuming is often not enough to keep rugs in perfect condition. Over time, dust, allergens, dirt and various stains settle into the fibres of rugs. The solution is to use the professional services offered by an area rug cleaning company.
Our goal is to shed light on why it is important to have your rugs cleaned by professionals, what methods area-pile rug cleaners use, what benefits regular care brings, and how often you should visit a rug cleaning company. Cleanliness, longevity and a renewed look for your rugs are just a few steps away.
area rug Cleaning & Input
We know why it’s important to have your area rugs professionally cleaned at a rug cleaning company. Normal home rug care mainly involves vacuuming and occasional hand cleaning. However, these methods are not sufficient to thoroughly remove all the dirt and allergens that settle deep within the rug fibers. A professional area-meal rug cleaning service can clean rugs so that they look like new, while extending their life and performing a deep disinfection with UV irradiation and a “BIO-OZON” ozone vacuum machine, all without the need for chemicals.
Deep removal of dirt and allergens by UV radiation and ozonation
Powder, dust mites and other allergens can hide deep in rug and cause health problems, especially allergies and asthma. Conventional vacuuming only removes surface dirt but does not reach deep into the fibres. Area-meal rug cleaning uses special technologies that penetrate deep into the rug and remove even the smallest particles of dust, dirt and allergens. This improves the air quality in your home.
Removing stubborn stains and unpleasant odours with ozone
rugs can easily suck up liquids and odors that build up over time and cause unpleasant smells. Professional cleaners use strong but gentle cleaning agents that will remove even stubborn stains from wine, coffee or pets without damaging the material. Stains that you don’t remove at home can penetrate deeper into the fibers over time, which can cause permanent damage to the rug.
Extend the life of your rug with impregnation and lanolin
area rugs are often an expensive investment, whether it’s a hand-woven area rug or a modern designer area. Regular professional cleaning extends the life of a rug by preventing the build-up of dirt that can damage its fibres. An area rug cleaning company will take care of your rug with care to make it last as long as possible.

An overview of the area rug cleaning services
Before the cleaning procedure begins, rug repair or restoration of rugs and fringes is arranged if necessary. If your rug has suffered damage, for example due to wear, tear or loss of colour, the area rug cleaner can offer repair and restoration services. Experienced professionals can repair damaged fibers, re-dye faded areas, or restore the rug’s texture. These services are especially valuable for expensive or antique rugs that have a high value.
Phase 1 > mechanical brushing and knocking with the KIRBY® & HYLA® machine system. Tapping with a fine rotary brush loosens coarse mechanical dirt trampled deep into the rug fibre. The rug is ready for the next knocking process with the electric knocker, which aims to open and fluff the rug fibre. The whole process serves to loosen dust, hair, dried mud and dirt in the warp.
Phase 2 > chemical gentle cleaning – enzymatic/foam pre-spraying releases water soluble or dry foam soils. Enzymes will also remove contaminants that subsequent steps may not always release including removing grease and grime and releasing encapsulated odors.
Phase 3 > manual or machine cleaning combined with bath and soak of the rug. This is always determined by the type of rug and the soiling of the rug, so as to avoid deterioration and achieve the maximum possible cleaning result. Area rug cleaning offers a special cleaning method that will revive the colors and bring back your rug to its original beauty. This service is ideal for rugs that are located in areas with direct sunlight or are exposed to frequent use.
Phase 4 > for natural rugs, a nourishing application of natural lanolin is used to restore the natural properties of the natural fiber and fabric. Lanolin regeneration brings revival to the natural fibre and also brings protection to the rug from adverse external influences. The rug will show no signs of fraying, will not break, will gain a brighter colour and will feel soft and nourished to the touch.
Phase 5 > of rug drying is quite crucial. Although the final disinfection and antibacterial treatment with ozone (O₃) is the most effective possible, as (O₃) is a powerful oxidant that effectively kills bacteria, viruses, moulds and odours and is therefore used by our company for the final disinfection of surfaces and textiles, thorough drying is important. This is because moisture can affect the effectiveness of the final antibacterial treatment and the disinfecting efficacy of both chemical and ozonation.
Residual moisture can still linger in materials after chemical or ozone disinfection, which continues to promote mold growth and possible bacterial proliferation. Therefore, at our dry cleaners, we consider it important to thoroughly re-dry materials after ozonation or chemical disinfection to prevent the re-growth of microorganisms.
Drying rugs and getting them thoroughly dry is the absolute key in terms of expertly executed natural or synthetic rug maintenance. Our company uses the AeroFlow® accumulated/radiant heat technology system from Thermotec AG. Contact drying with uniform drying of rugs relies on AeroFlow® technology, which efficiently transfers heat to the fabric and fibres via integrated chamotte heating plates that distribute the accumulated heat deep into the surface of the material for the required time via a built-in thermostat with a FlexiSmart temperature and humidity sensor.
Drying rugs with the AeroFlow® system is therefore based on the proportional flow and radiation of heat to ensure fast and even drying of the rug. Thanks to the lower airflow velocity and low surface temperature of the heating plate, dust is not blown away and the rugs dry evenly. The independent VDE institute has verified that only quality materials meeting the certification criteria are used for the product “Thermotec storage heaters” and awards the products the VDE GS label.
Phase 6 > disinfection and odour removal, as rugs can absorb odours over time, especially when exposed to moisture, pets or spilled liquids. Professional cleaners offer disinfection and odor neutralization services that will remove even the most stubborn odors and leave your rug fresh and smelling good. The antibacterial treatment is done by deep disinfection with UV irradiation and the ozone vacuum machine “BIO-OZON”, all without the need for chemicals with the highest possible efficiency in terms of removing mites, viruses, bacteria, odors and mold.
Phase 7 > application of protective impregnation including deodorization of the fibre after disinfection with ozone and UV. After cleaning – drying – disinfection, application of a special protective agent that repels dirt and stains from the British company PROCHEM® is recommended. These agents create an invisible protective layer that prevents liquids from penetrating the rug fibres. This will make your rug better able to resist soiling and easier to maintain.
How often should you use the services of an area rug cleaner?
The frequency of professional rug cleaning depends on several factors, including the type of rug, its level of use, and its location. In general, it is recommended to have your rugs professionally cleaned at least once a year. In homes with high dust levels, pets or young children, it is advisable to clean rugs more frequently, for example every 6 months.
Rug cleaning in households with allergies
If someone in your household suffers from allergies, it may be advisable to have the rugs cleaned even more frequently to minimise the presence of allergens such as dust, pollen and dust mites. Regular professional cleaning can go a long way in improving air quality and alleviating allergies.
Households with pets
Pets can leave hair, dirt and unpleasant odors on rugs. Area rug Cleaning offers special services for households with pets that include removal of pet hair, stains and odors associated with pets. It is recommended to have your rugs cleaned at least twice a year if you have a dog, cat or other pets in your home.
