Expert care for silk, sisal, jute, bamboo, seagrass, and other delicate natural fibers. Customized cleaning methods for each unique fiber type.
Not all rugs are made of wool. Specialty fibers like silk, sisal, jute, bamboo, and seagrass require customized cleaning methods to prevent damage. Each fiber type has unique properties that determine how it reacts to water, cleaning solutions, and drying conditions. For delicate viscose rugs, see our dedicated viscose rug cleaning service.
Our team understands the unique properties of each fiber type and adjusts our cleaning process accordingly. From pH levels to moisture control to drying methods, every step is calibrated for the specific fiber we're treating. This expertise is what separates us from general carpet cleaners who use a one-size-fits-all approach.
Whether you have a luxurious silk rug, a natural jute area rug, or a delicate bamboo silk piece, we have the knowledge and equipment to clean it safely and effectively. For heirloom pieces requiring extra attention, our antique rug care specialists provide museum-quality preservation.

Common questions about specialty fiber rug cleaning
We clean all specialty fiber types including pure silk, bamboo silk, viscose/art silk, sisal, seagrass, jute, hemp, coir, and wool/silk blends. Each fiber requires specific cleaning methods, solutions, and drying conditions. For viscose rugs specifically, we offer dedicated viscose cleaning services.
Steam cleaning uses high heat and moisture, which can permanently damage delicate fibers. Silk can lose its sheen and develop water spots, while plant fibers like jute and sisal can shrink, brown, and deteriorate. We use low-moisture, pH-balanced methods specifically designed for each fiber type.
We perform fiber identification testing as part of our inspection process. This includes burn tests, chemical tests, and visual/tactile examination by our experienced technicians. Accurate fiber identification is crucial for choosing the right cleaning approach.
Yes, we specialize in stain removal for silk and other delicate fibers. However, success depends on the stain type, age, and any previous cleaning attempts. For stubborn stains requiring color touch-ups, our dye correction specialists can restore appearance.
Specialty fiber rugs typically require 7-14 days due to the gentle, controlled cleaning and drying process required. Delicate fibers like silk need extended drying time in climate-controlled conditions to prevent damage. We'll provide an accurate timeline during your initial consultation.
Yes, we offer fiber-appropriate protection treatments. However, not all protectors work with all fibers—some can damage delicate materials. We'll recommend the right protection option based on your rug's specific fiber type. Learn more about our rug fabric protection services.
