Taelius Black Washable Indoor-Outdoor Rug

Details at a Glance

UV-stabilized polyester fibers hold their black tone through full-sun exposure and wet weather, while the non-skid backing grips concrete, wood decks, and indoor tile without shifting. The Taelius black washable outdoor rug by Addison Rugs delivers machine-washable convenience for patios and high-traffic entryways, available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. The ultra-thin flat weave air-dries in hours after rain or hosing, and you can toss the whole thing into a cold-water cycle when spills or muddy paws demand a deeper clean.

How Does UV-Stabilized Polyester Hold Up Outdoors?

UV stabilization locks color into each fiber so the Oushak vine pattern stays sharp even when the rug sits in direct sun all season. Polyester itself resists moisture absorption, so pooled water won't cause the backing to delaminate or the weave to mildew. The flat construction means there's no thick pile to trap dirt or hold wetness -- rain runs off, and a quick spray-down clears pollen or tracked-in sand. You're looking at a material engineered to survive full outdoor exposure without the fade or rot that kills untreated natural fibers in a single summer.

Do You Have to Bring It Inside for Winter?

You can leave it out year-round because polyester won't crack in freezing temps or hold moisture that expands when it ices over. That said, if your patio gets buried in snow or you want to prevent dirt buildup in an unused space, rolling it up for storage is easy -- the ultra-thin profile takes almost no closet space. When spring arrives, unroll it, hose it down if needed, and it's ready in a few hours. No special prep, no conditioning treatments.

Where Does This Work Best on a Patio or Deck?

Position the 8' x 10' or 9' x 12' under an outdoor dining set so chairs stay on the rug when pulled out, or use a 5' x 7'6' to anchor a seating group of outdoor accent chairs. The non-skid backing holds firm on wood decking and stone without a separate pad, and the black colorway pairs cleanly with neutrals in your outdoor rug rotation or layered over tile in a sunroom. Runners like the 2'3" x 7'6' define pathways along covered porches or sit in front of an entry door where wet boots and pet traffic concentrate.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can an outdoor rug get wet?

Yes -- this flat-weave polyester rug dries in hours after rain or hosing because the ultra-thin construction doesn't trap water, and the material itself resists moisture absorption.

How do I clean an outdoor rug?

Hose it down and let it air-dry for quick spot cleaning, or machine wash it cold with mild detergent for deep stain removal -- never use bleach or high heat, and always air-dry flat.

Can this stay outside all year?

The UV-stabilized polyester and non-skid backing handle year-round outdoor exposure, though you can roll it up for winter storage if you want to avoid snow and ice buildup.

Will the finish fade in direct sun?

UV stabilization prevents the black color and Oushak pattern from fading even in full sun, so the rug maintains its look through multiple seasons of outdoor use.

How do I store it over winter?

Roll it loosely and store it in a dry spot -- the ultra-thin profile fits in most closets, and polyester won't mildew or attract pests while it waits for spring.

What's included with standard delivery?
