An item is considered faulty if it has manufacturing defects, arrives torn, ripped, stained, or damaged in transit, differs significantly from the advertised pattern or size, or fails reasonable durability or quality standards.
What does not count as a fault?
The following are not considered faults: normal variations in colour or texture due to the nature of textile materials, minor packaging wear that does not affect the rug itself, and damage resulting from improper use, handling, or installation after delivery.
Can I return an item after 30 days?
If more than 30 days have passed but you believe your item is faulty or not as described, please contact us at support@artyrugs.co.uk. We will review your case in line with your statutory rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015.

What sizes do artyrugs come in?
Our rugs are available in the following sizes: 60x110cm, 60x180cm, 60x240cm, 80x150cm, 122x170cm, 152x213cm, 200x290cm, and 240x330cm. Size availability varies by design - please check the individual product page for available options.
How do I measure my space before buying?
We recommend using a tape measure to mark out the rug dimensions on your floor with masking tape before purchasing. This gives you a clear visual of how the rug will sit in your room. As a rule, leave at least 30–45cm of floor visible around the edges of the rug in a living room setting.
Will the rug size change after washing?
Our rugs are pre-washed during manufacturing to minimise shrinkage. However, as with all textile products, minor size variation of up to 3–5% may occur after repeated washing. Always wash at 30°C as recommended.
Are the size measurements exact?
Rug dimensions are approximate and may vary slightly due to the nature of handcrafted and textile manufacturing. A tolerance of ±2–3% is standard across the industry.
Materials & Care
What are artyrugs made from?
All artyrugs are made from 75% recycled cotton and 25% polyester. This blend gives the rugs a soft feel, strong durability, and makes them suitable for machine washing.
Are artyrugs machines washable?
Yes - all artyrugs are fully machine washable. Simply wash at 30°C on a gentle cycle. Do not tumble dry. Lay flat or hang to air dry after washing.
Can I put my rug in the tumble dryer?
We do not recommend tumble drying as high heat can damage the fibres and cause shrinkage. Always air dry flat or hang to dry after washing.
How often should I wash my rug?
This depends on foot traffic and use. For most households, washing every 4–8 weeks is sufficient. High-traffic areas such as hallways or kitchens may benefit from more frequent washing.
Are artyrugs non-slip?
Our rugs feature a non-slip backing to help keep them in place on hard floor surfaces. For added safety on very smooth floors or for elderly users, we recommend using a non-slip rug pad underneath.
Are artyrugs pet-friendly?
Yes. The machine-washable nature of our rugs makes them ideal for homes with pets. The recycled cotton material is easy to clean and the low-pile design does not trap pet hair as easily as high-pile alternatives.
Are artyrugs suitable for underfloor heating?
Our rugs can generally be used over underfloor heating systems, but we recommend checking that your underfloor heating system is compatible with rugs and that the surface temperature does not exceed 27°C beneath the rug, as excessive heat can affect the backing material over time.
Are the dyes used in artyrugs safe?
Yes. All dyes used in our rugs meet standard EU and UK safety regulations for textile products.
