Selene Green Washable Indoor-Outdoor Rug

Details at a Glance

UV radiation and seasonal weather shifts fade abstract patterns faster than solid colors, but this flat-weave rug uses UV-stabilized polyester fibers to hold the green tones through multiple seasons of direct sun exposure. The Selene Green Washable Indoor-Outdoor Rug is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. You can machine wash it at home in cold water when patio dust or spills build up, and the non-skid backing keeps it in place on tile, concrete, or hardwood without adhesive.

Will UV-Stabilized Polyester Hold Up in Full Sun Year-Round?

Yes -- the fibers are treated during manufacturing to resist color degradation from constant sunlight. That stabilization prevents the green hues from bleaching or turning gray the way untreated synthetic rugs do after a single summer. The flat-weave construction sheds water quickly because polyester doesn't absorb moisture like natural fibers, so rain dries fast and mildew can't take hold. The backing is synthetic and weather-resistant, so you won't see the edge rot or crumbling you'd get with latex-backed indoor rugs left outside.

How Do You Wash It, and Will That Damage the Pattern?

You machine wash it at home in cold water -- no professional cleaning, no renting equipment. The polyester construction and flat weave hold up through repeated wash cycles without the pattern blurring or the backing separating. Toss it in when pollen coats the surface in spring or after a season of foot traffic, let it air dry, and the abstract design stays crisp. The fast-dry technology means you're not waiting days for it to cure before you can roll it back out under your [outdoor accent chairs](/collections/outdoor-accent-chairs) or on the deck.

Can This Stay Outside All Winter, or Do You Bring It In?

It can stay out in covered areas where snow and ice won't sit on it for weeks, but most people roll it up and store it indoors over winter to extend its life. The UV stabilization and synthetic backing handle freeze-thaw cycles better than natural-fiber rugs, but constant moisture from melting snow can still weaken any outdoor textile over time. If you do leave it out, shake off heavy snow and let it dry between storms. For storage, roll it loosely -- don't fold it flat -- and keep it in a dry space where air can circulate.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can an outdoor rug get wet?

Yes. This rug is made for outdoor use, so rain and spills won't damage the polyester fibers or backing. It dries quickly because the material doesn't absorb water the way cotton or wool does.

Will the green color fade if I put it on a sunny patio?

The UV-stabilized fibers resist fading in direct sunlight better than standard polyester, so the green tones stay vibrant across multiple seasons. You'll still see the most color longevity in partial shade or on covered porches.

Does the non-skid backing work on a concrete patio?

Yes. The synthetic backing grips smooth concrete, tile, and hardwood without adhesive, though you can reposition it easily when you need to sweep or rearrange furniture.

Is it safe for pets?

Yes. The polyester is non-toxic, and pet hair doesn't embed in the flat weave the way it does in high-pile rugs. If your dog has an accident, you can machine wash the whole rug in cold water.

Will it fit under a door or create a trip hazard?

The profile is less than 0.25 inches thick, so it slides under most interior doors and won't catch toes in high-traffic zones. That ultra-thin build also makes it easy to layer under dining sets or place in entryways.

Does it ship fully assembled?

Yes -- it arrives rolled and ready to unroll on your patio, no setup required. Free curbside delivery brings it to the continental USA, and you can add white-glove service at checkout if you want in-room placement.
