Taelaris Green Washable Indoor-Outdoor Rug

Details at a Glance

UV-stabilized polyester resists fading under direct sun on patios and in south-facing rooms, while the flat weave construction sheds water and dries quickly after rain or hosing off. The Taelaris Green Washable Indoor-Outdoor Rug is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. You can throw it in the washing machine when muddy paws or spills hit -- no professional cleaning bills.

How Well Does UV-Stabilized Polyester Handle Sun and Moisture?

UV stabilization keeps the green striped pattern from bleaching out under full sun exposure on uncovered decks and patios. Polyester itself doesn't absorb water the way natural fibers do, so the ultra-thin 0.08-inch profile dries in hours rather than days even in humid climates -- that speed cuts off mildew before it starts. The flat weave construction lets air move through freely, and you can hose the rug down or rinse spills without worrying about trapped moisture rotting the backing.

Can You Actually Wash This in a Home Machine?

Yes -- wash it cold on a gentle cycle with mild detergent, then lay it flat or hang it to air dry. Never use bleach or hot water, because heat degrades the polyester fibers and the adhesive holding the non-skid backing in place, and never put it in the dryer for the same reason. Air drying preserves the structure and keeps the backing functional for years. This is the rug you want in a kitchen, mudroom, or entryway where spills and tracked-in dirt happen weekly.

Where Does This Work Best on a Patio or Deck?

The 8 ft. W x 10 ft. L size anchors a dining table on a covered patio with 24 inches of clearance for chairs to pull out, while the runner fits a galley deck or the length of a sunroom. Pair it with seating from our outdoor accent chairs collection or layer it over composite decking in a lounge area outfitted from our outdoor accessories selection. The non-skid backing grips tile, hardwood, and composite surfaces without an extra rug pad, so it won't shift underfoot or bunch up in high-traffic zones.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can an outdoor rug get wet?

Yes -- the flat weave polyester sheds water and dries quickly, and you can hose it off or let rain hit it without damage.

How do I clean an outdoor rug?

Machine wash cold on gentle cycle with mild detergent, then air dry flat or hanging. For quick spot cleaning, hose it down and let it air dry.

Can this stay outside all year?

The UV-stabilized polyester handles sun and moisture year-round, but you'll extend its life by rolling it up and storing it indoors during harsh winter months if you're not using the patio.

Will the color fade in direct sun?

UV stabilization resists fading under full sun exposure, though all outdoor rugs fade gradually over years of uninterrupted sunlight -- rotating the rug quarterly evens out wear.

How do I store it over winter?

Wash and dry it thoroughly, roll it loosely, and store it in a dry garage or shed. Avoid folding, which creases the backing.

What rug size anchors a seating group?

A 5 ft. W x 7 ft. 6 in. L fits under a small conversation set, while the 9 ft. W x 12 ft. L or 10 ft. W x 14 ft. L suits open-concept patios and living rooms where all furniture legs sit on the rug.
