Let's explore our new collection of rugs in New Zealand.

Common Types of Rugs

The options when it comes to rugs are endless. But we have the most suitable rugs for houses in NZ.

Wool rugs have been one of the most common carpets used for centuries. Wool is known for its naturally long appearance and durability.

On the other hand, Polyester rugs are affordable compared to wool carpets, but they are not as long-lasting as wool rugs, which also makes them cheaper options in rugs.

Cotton rugs are eco-friendly and low-cost budget options made from recycled cotton fiber. Cotton mats are super comfy and give you an organic vibe in your space.

Another eco-friendly option is jute rugs, the most popular rugs among customers. Jute is 100% organic; farmers grow it to produce yarn and other home decor items.

In the old days, people made rugs from genuine leather hides, such as cow, lamb, and goat skin, to keep the house warm. Hides are still very popular in New Zealand, and leather rugs demand keeps growing.

Which Rug Would Be Best for Floor

It all depends on the type of floor in your space. Here are a few tips to help you determine which rug would work best for each type of floor.

Consider laying down thick, soft rugs, such as wool, fur, or polyester shag rugs, on a hard floor to provide fluffy, plush comfort under your feet.

Thick, heavy carpets prevent the rugs from moving around on the hard floor.

If you like the feel of a hard floor, there is an alternative option: cowhides - non-slip, eco-friendly, elegant, luxurious look.

We also have a special kind of thinner machine-made rugs designed for use on hard floors. They are built with anti-slip silicone backing, which keeps them intact with the floor without moving around.

You already have a carpet floor installed in the house, and you want to put a rug on top of it; yes, you can add it, but you have to check how cushiony your carpet is.

If the carpet is just the standard soft quality, you can use any rug on it, but if the carpet is extra cushiony, you may avoid using thinner rugs. Thinner rugs do not stay flat on cushiony carpets.
