Elius Green Washable Indoor-Outdoor Rug

Details at a Glance

This rug's UV-stabilized polyester fibers and fast-drying flat weave handle repeated sun, rain and washing cycles without fading or mildewing. The Elius Green Washable Indoor-Outdoor Rug is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. Throw it in the washing machine when muddy paws or drink spills hit, then lay it back out within hours -- no professional cleaning, no permanent stains trapped in the pile.

How Does UV-Stabilized Polyester Hold Up to Weather?

The fiber treatment blocks UV rays that break down ordinary synthetics and bleach out color, so the green watercolor tones stay vibrant through full seasons of direct sun. Polyester itself resists moisture absorption, which prevents mold, mildew and rot that kill natural-fiber rugs left outdoors. The open flat weave sheds rainwater quickly and dries completely in a few hours, so you won't find damp patches breeding bacteria underneath. Salt air and humidity won't degrade the backing or fibers the way they do jute or wool.

Do You Wash It in a Regular Machine?

Yes -- cold water, mild detergent, then air dry flat or draped over a railing. The ultra-thin profile and lightweight polyester make it easy to handle wet, and the flat weave releases dirt instead of trapping it deep in pile loops. You can wash the smaller sizes (up to 5 ft. x 7 ft. 6 in.) in a standard home machine; larger ones may need a commercial front-loader. Wash as often as you need -- the construction is built for it, and you'll save hundreds over years of professional cleanings.

Where Does This Work Best on a Patio or Deck?

It anchors outdoor seating areas without bunching under chair legs, and the non-skid rubber backing grips composite decking, concrete and tile without adhesive. Use it under dining furniture on a covered porch, in front of pool house doors, or layered with other outdoor rugs for a casual lounge zone. The watercolor pattern hides everyday wear and outdoor debris between washes, so high-traffic entryways and mudrooms stay presentable. Pair it with weather-safe planters and décor to tie green tones across the space.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can an outdoor rug get wet?

This one is designed for it -- the flat weave drains quickly, and the polyester fibers and rubber backing resist mold and mildew even after heavy rain.

Will the green fade in direct sun?

UV-stabilized fiber treatment prevents color breakdown during extended sun exposure, so the watercolor pattern keeps its original vibrancy for years outdoors.

Can this stay outside all year?

Polyester and rubber both handle freeze-thaw cycles, but rolling it up and storing it dry over winter extends its lifespan and keeps the backing grippy longer.

How do I clean pet accidents or food spills?

Rinse the spot with a hose immediately, or toss the whole rug in the washing machine on cold with mild detergent, then air dry flat.

Does the rubber backing damage wood or composite decking?

No -- the non-skid backing grips without adhesive and protects underlying surfaces from scratches, though you should lift and air the rug periodically to prevent trapped moisture on wood.

Is assembly or white-glove delivery included?

The rug ships rolled and ready to use with free curbside delivery to the continental USA; no assembly is needed, and white-glove services are available for an additional fee upon request.
