Calista Black Washable Indoor-Outdoor Rug

Details at a Glance

UV-stabilized polyester handles sun, rain, and foot traffic without professional cleaning or fade damage. The Calista Black Washable Indoor-Outdoor Rug with stain-resistant flat weave construction is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. Machine wash it at home after spills or hose it off outdoors -- the ultra-thin profile dries in hours instead of days.

How Does UV-Stabilized Polyester Hold Up to Sun and Rain?

UV stabilization treats the polyester fibers so they resist color fade across seasons of patio sun exposure. Rain beads on the stain-resistant surface for quick blotting before moisture sets, and the flat weave construction sheds water fast -- you're not waiting days for it to dry like a thick-pile rug would. Polyester won't rot or mildew when it gets wet, which is why it works on covered patios where occasional rain blows in. The non-skid backing grips concrete, tile, and wood decking without a separate pad, so the rug stays put in foot traffic.

Do You Have to Pull It Inside After Every Rain?

No -- the quick-dry design means you can leave it on a covered patio through light rain and hose it off when it gets dirty. For heavy downpours or if you're storing the rug over winter, roll it up after it's fully dry to prevent the backing from staying damp against a deck for weeks. Machine wash it cold with mild detergent when it needs a full clean, then hang or lay flat to dry -- never use a dryer, because high heat damages the polyester and the backing adhesive.

Where Does This Work Best Outdoors?

The 5' x 7'6" and 8' x 10' sizes anchor seating groups on covered patios when paired with pieces from our outdoor accent chairs collection, while the 2'3" x 7'6" runner fits entryways and the space between a door and your main outdoor rugs. Position it with at least 18 inches of clearance from rain-exposed edges so water doesn't pool on the rug for hours. The black striped pattern works with teak furniture and wicker sets, and you can tie the look together with items from our outdoor accessories and outdoor wall art collections.
