Maintenance
Wool has excellent properties which make it resistant to various impurities, and therefore the maintenance of wool products is very simple. Sheep wool is very resistant and durable, warm, breathable and antibacterial. Sheep wool products do not need to be washed frequently, they undergo a natural cleaning process.
We recommend washing only when necessary, as wool contains wool grease, which naturally repels dirt. Usually it is sufficient to beat the carpets and ventilate them in the air. Air humidity promotes the self-cleaning ability of the wool, therefore, it is advisable to place the wool product in a humid environment and then shake it out – this is the best way to remove dirt and dust residues.
In order to retain its properties, the wool must not be degreased, we recommend using a fine liquid detergent with lanolin. Lanolin is a by-product of sheep wool (complex waxy grease), used as a softener for detergents. It is ideal for the maintenance of our carpets.
Do not use washing powders containing enzymes, bleaching agents or alkaline products! Do not use fabric softener!
It is best not to soak the whole carpet, but only to shampoo it by hand. This means preparing foam from a detergent containing lanolin and cleaning with a sponge.
When washing in an automatic washing machine, select a program for wool and fine hand washing at 20-30 °C without spinning during washing. After washing, just drain the water out of the washing machine and do not spin. When drying, unfold the carpet and let it dry. Do not dry the product near a heater or in direct sunlight.
The product must not be wrung out or dried in a dryer, otherwise, the wool will shrink and harden into felt!
The carpets can also be dry cleaned at a professional dry cleaning shop.

Answer: No, a carpet with this width cannot be made. We make carpets with a width of 50 cm and 100 cm, this restriction is due to the production technology and design of the loom.
