Parallel Bands Gold Washable Indoor-Outdoor Rug - Weather Resistant

Details at a Glance

UV-stabilized polyester with a flat weave handles full sun on patios and decks without fading, and the non-skid backing keeps it flat on tile, wood, or stone without a separate pad. The Parallel Bands Gold Washable Indoor-Outdoor Rug is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. Machine-wash it in cold water when pet stains or outdoor debris accumulate, and the ultra-thin profile dries quickly after rain or cleaning.

How Does UV-Stabilized Polyester Hold Up Outside?

UV stabilization treats the polyester fibers to resist sun damage, so the gold stripe doesn't bleach out on a south-facing porch or pool deck. The flat weave lets air circulate underneath, which prevents mold when the rug gets wet from rain or hose spray. Polyester itself doesn't absorb moisture the way natural fibers do, so it won't mildew or rot in humid climates, and the non-skid backing stays secure on concrete and composite decking without sliding.

Do You Have to Bring It Inside for Winter?

You can leave it out year-round if it's under a covered patio or porch where snow and ice won't sit on it for weeks. If the rug will be exposed to heavy snow or standing water, roll it up and store it dry -- the polyester itself will handle freezing temps, but the backing can crack if it stays soaked and frozen. For general cleaning, run it through a cold-water cycle with mild detergent, then hang or lay it flat to dry; the ultra-thin weave dries in a few hours.

Where Does This Rug Work Best?

An 8 ft. x 8 ft. square centers under a round dining table on a covered deck, while the 8 ft. x 10 ft. fits a furniture grouping in a sunroom or under outdoor accent chairs with 6-12 inches of clearance around the edges. The 9 ft. x 12 ft. anchors a sectional in an open-concept space that flows to the patio, and the 10 ft. x 14 ft. covers large entryways or commercial lobbies. The gold stripe coordinates with brass fixtures and natural wood, and you can extend the look with pieces from our outdoor rugs and outdoor accessories collections. The matching 50 in. x 70 in. throw carries the same stripe to furniture or outdoor seating areas.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can an outdoor rug get wet?

Yes -- polyester flat weave dries quickly, and UV stabilization prevents the fabric from breaking down when it's exposed to rain or hose spray.

How do I clean an outdoor rug?

Machine-wash it in cold water with mild detergent, then hang or lay flat to dry. The ultra-thin weave dries in a few hours.

Can this stay outside all year?

It can stay out year-round under a covered patio, but roll it up if heavy snow or standing water will sit on it for extended periods.

Will the gold stripe fade in direct sun?

UV stabilization prevents fading in full sun exposure on patios, balconies, and pool decks.

Do I need a separate rug pad underneath?

No -- the non-skid backing secures placement on hardwood, tile, stone, and concrete without additional padding.

What's the best size for a dining table on a deck?

Allow 24 inches of clearance around the table for chair movement -- an 8 ft. x 10 ft. rug fits most rectangular tables, and the 8 ft. x 8 ft. works under round tables.
