The Persian Rug Cleaning Company

Fringe Finishing & Grooming

Attention to detail makes all the difference....

Pile Grooming

Once cleaned, the nap needs to be groomed with horse hair brushes in the correct direction before the rug is dry. This procedure ensures that the pile will reflect light in one direction and not leave shaded areas after drying. The more thorough the grooming process, the better the appearance and feel of the rug once dry.

Fringe Finishing

Once rugs have been cleaned and dried the fringe is inspected to ensure that it is as clean as possible. One of the main advantages of our immersion washing is that fringes can be cleaned to an excellent standard. However if for any reason after cleaning the fringe remains slightly soiled, we use specialist solutions to enhance its appearance.

Nobody likes the look of a discoloured fringe..

We feel that a rug is not 100% clean unless special attention has been paid to the fringe. We can rectify common fringe discolouration problems such as dye migration and cellulosic browning. Because fringe is very often made of cotton, specialist procedures need to be used in order to enhance its appearance without causing long term structural damage. Your rug’s safety is always our priority and so we never use chlorine bleaches which unfortunately are still being widely used in the industry.
