Over the last 20 years, Lorena Canals has evolved to become one of the most well-known brands and creators of washable rugs at home. Lorena Canals revolutionized the rug industry when they first introduced their collection of washable cotton rugs to the world. It started with one simple question that perhaps a lot of us parents have asked: 'Why can't we wash our kids' rugs at home?’

Lorena Canals started her company to fill the void of modern day living making rugs that are 100% cotton and machine-washable. 20 years later, she is here to do it again with her latest collection of washable wool rugs, the first of its kind. Woolables are designed for home - everyday modern living - and are made of 100% wool.

Lorena Canals operates out of offices in Barcelona and New York. Their rugs are manufactured in two of their very own facilities in India where they have full control of the quality and best practices. Their designers work side by side with 120 artisans who take care of every detail in an elaborate handmade process. The brand prides itself on quality in every aspect of production, from the finest raw materials to socially responsible labour practices. Nowadays, Lorena Canals products are found worldwide in more than 2,500 points of sale, making its products available in more than 40 countries. Their offerings have expanded to include Home Decoration serving both children and grown-ups! A nursery funded by the SAKULA PROJECT now has 120 boys and girls attending and continues to grow year after year. You can read more about the Lorena Canals projects here.

Wool rugs have been much loved by consumers worldwide for centuries due to its many great qualities. From an eco-friendly perspective, wool is a renewable resource and is biodegradable making it a great choice for “green” households. Wool rugs typically have superior strength and durability compared to synthetic fibres. The pile of a wool rug is very sturdy and insulating. It is also naturally fire retardant and self-extinguishing.

• When you first receive the rug, unpack the rug from its bag and lay flat. Allow the pile to condition at room temperature for 2 to 3 days, then brush or vacuum as normal to allow the pile to recover
• Wool rugs will shed fibers when new and during use. This is not a defect but a characteristic of the natural wool fiber used
• Trim with scissors any pulled or loose threads to prevent further damage
• To prevent dust and crumbs from settling into the roots of the fiber, we recommend regular vacuuming using low-powered vacuum cleaner with high-pile setting
• Clean spots and absorb liquid spills immediately with a clean, absorbent cloth. Avoid scrubbing
• Do not use chemicals as they could damage or fade the colours of your rug
• When rug is in need of a wash, check the label sewn onto the rug for recommended washing machine capacity for each rug
• For this rug, we recommend a minimum capacity of 13 kg (5' 7" x 7' 10") and 17 kg (6' 7" x 9' 10")
• Wash separately at 30 degrees using a gentle cycle for a maximum of 30 minutes. A neutral detergent can be used during the wash
• Make sure to use a low spin cycle if the rug has braids or fringes
• Do not bleach and softener
• Do not leave the wet rug in the washer as colours may bleed and transfer
• Tumble dry at low temperature
• Do not dry clean
• Avoid exposure to direct sunlight as it may result in colour fading
• Never store the rug in an airtight plastic bag. Use the cotton bag that is included for storing
• We recommend the use of the anti-slip underlay (included) to keep the rug in place
