Karastan is a leader in their industry. They have been making quality area rugs since the company opened in 1928. They look very luxurious and appear to be very delicate but these rugs actually wear well and some people still are enjoying the Karastan rugs they purchased long ago when the company was young and are still holding their beauty.

Karastan rugs are produced using the best natural fibers and materials that are man made. By making all of their high quality rugs from only worsted wool the rugs become functional, durable and easy to clean and maintain.

When you purchase your Karastan rug you will want to ask the dealer what type of pad is recommended for the rug that you buy. You will always want to put a pad under your rug so it will hold its shape as well as increase the rug's life.

You will not find it hard to care for your Karastan rug. Removing the dirt that accumulates in the rug with regular vacuuming and taking it to a professional cleaner periodically will extend the life of the rug.

Here are some steps to remove stains: If you spill something on a Karastan rug do not rub the stain, as this will tend to make the stain worse. Blot up the moisture until it's all out. If you need to remove a solid substance that is on your rug use a spoon or a blunt knife to lift the substance off the rug. Try to scrape along the direction of the nap. If you get latex paint on your rug rinse it with water and blot repeatedly. Residual stains can be removed with a little lukewarm water. You can also try to us a dab of shampoo that is mixed with a small amount of white vinegar. Stay off of your rug until it is fully dried and vacuum to fluff up the pile.

Your Karastan rug will serve you well for many years if you take care of it properly. People everywhere know Karastan and some will only purchase their rugs due to the superb quality and a company that stands by their product.
