The flat-weave polyester rug you're looking at resists UV fade and dries in hours after getting hosed off or run through a standard washing machine. The Southwest Sky Washable Indoor-Outdoor Rug is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. The non-skid backing grips tile and hardwood without a separate pad, and the 0.25-inch pile stays put under doors and high foot traffic.

Will UV-Stabilized Polyester Hold Up in Full Sun?

Yes -- the polyester fiber in this flat weave is treated to resist color fade under direct sunlight year-round. You can leave it on a south-facing patio or uncovered deck without expecting the horizontal stripe pattern to bleach out after a season. Polyester doesn't absorb moisture the way jute or wool does, so rain and humidity won't rot the backing or cause mildew. It's rated for both indoor and outdoor placement, which means the material engineering accounts for UV exposure, wet-dry cycles, and temperature swings. The sealed edges prevent fraying when the rug gets wet.

How Do You Wash It and How Long Does It Take to Dry?

Machine wash it cold with mild detergent and lay flat to air dry, or hose it off outdoors and let it drain. The ultra-thin 0.25-inch pile dries in a few hours because polyester sheds water instead of holding it. If you've got muddy paw prints or a spill, you can rinse the surface on the patio and it'll be dry by evening. Monthly deep cleaning in a standard washer won't cause pilling or color loss -- the flat weave construction and synthetic fiber handle repeated cycles. Don't use bleach or high heat.

Where Does a Flat-Weave Outdoor Rug Work Best?

Place the 8 ft. x 10 ft. under a dining table so chairs slide on and off the rug instead of catching on the edge, or position the 9 ft. x 12 ft. size in a screened porch to anchor seating. The 10 ft. x 14 ft. covers a large patio dining setup with room for eight chairs to pull out. The ultra-thin profile transitions smoothly from indoor hardwood to exterior stone without creating a trip hazard, and the horizontal Southwest stripe pairs well with pieces from our [outdoor accent chairs](/collections/outdoor-accent-chairs) and [outdoor accessories](/collections/outdoor-accessories) collections. If you're layering rugs across a covered deck, this flat weave sits flush under furniture from our [outdoor rugs](/collections/outdoor-rug) range.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can an outdoor rug get wet?

Yes -- this polyester flat weave is engineered for rain and hosing off. It dries in hours and won't mildew or rot when wet.

How do I clean an outdoor rug?

Machine wash cold with mild detergent and lay flat to dry, or hose it off on the patio. Monthly washing won't damage the weave or fade the colors.

Can this stay outside all year?

It's UV-stabilized for year-round outdoor placement, but you'll extend its life if you store it rolled indoors during months of heavy snow or standing water.

Will the colors fade in direct sun?

The polyester is UV-treated to resist fading under full sun exposure. You won't see bleaching after a season outdoors.

Does the non-skid backing need a separate rug pad?

No -- the textured underside grips hardwood and tile on its own. A pad is optional for extra cushion indoors but not required for slip resistance.

Is shipping included for all rug sizes?

Yes -- free curbside delivery to the continental USA covers every size, from the 8 ft. x 8 ft. up to the 10 ft. x 14 ft.
