Most angela adams rugs are made of carefully-traced, 100% New Zealand wool.
Certain rugs may use other materials, like natural jute, to best complement the rug design.
We will also use materials that suit the space the product is intended for, like cotton for bath mats. Our outdoor line is the only one to use synthetic materials.
All of our tufted rugs use natural latex adhesive and cotton backing.

What materials are angela adams rugs made from?
How do I clean my rug?
Vacuuming
Regular and thorough vacuuming is the best way to remove soil and dirt particles before they become embedded. If threads are pulled to the surface during vacuuming, do not attempt to pull out the loose fibers, rather, clip the loose fibers with scissors.
Spot + Stain Removal
Immediate treatment of any spill is very important. Blot up liquids with a paper towel or color free absorbent cloth. Scoop up solids with the end of a knife or spoon. Apply an absorbent dry powder cleaner directly to the affected area. Let stand for 15 minutes, and vacuum until all powder is gone. Repeat as necessary. We recommend these cleaners:
- Capture Dry Carpet Cleaning Powder
(800) 227-8873
captureclean.com - Oreck Dry Carpet Cleaning Powder
(800) 289-5888
oreck.com - Wools of New Zealand WoolClean
(800) 367-0462
woolsnz.com
Please note that absorbent powder cleaners are intended for spot cleaning only. Be careful of overuse, which may cause build up. angela adams does not recommend any stain repellent treatments that contain silicone, because they tend to accelerate carpet soiling.
Professional Cleaning
Depending on traffic and wear, you may want to have your rug professionally cleaned. Regular cleaning will enhance the color and texture and extend the life of your rug. Find a reputable cleaner in your area that specializes in high quality wool rugs. Inform the cleaner that the rug is made of New Zealand wool, with latex adhesive and a cotton backing. The rug should be cleaned flat on the floor, not in a machine. The rug should never be completely immersed in water. Approved rug cleaning methods are: bonnet cleaning, hot steam extraction, surface cleaning, rotary scrub brush cleaning, water and water based shampoo.
How do your rugs wear?
We use only high quality dyes suited for natural wool fiber. These dyes have very good color-fastness properties; however you should protect your rug from direct sunlight. Rotating your rug and furniture occasionally is recommended to equalize wear and sun effects.
With proper care, our rugs are designed to last generations
Do you offer rug pads?
Yes, you can find our selection of rug pads here. We recommend rug pads be used for all of our indoor area rugs.

Do you Offer Customizations?
Yes! Nearly all of our rugs can be customized for both size and colorway and we love to bring your project to life.

One of our advisors would be happy to assist you with any questions you may have.
How long do custom orders take?
Custom orders typically take 8-12 weeks depending on the complexity of the project and our production timelines.
We can provide a detailed estimate prior to placing the order.
Do Custom Orders Materially Change Pricing?
Given the bespoke nature of nearly all of our products, custom orders typically do not impact the project budget materially.
There is typically a modest increase to lead time, but that is usually the larger factor when it comes to getting the product expertly tailored to fit your specific space.
Our advisors would be happy to talk you through the project or refer you to someone local to your area for assistance in person.
Will I see a Proof Before my Order is Finalized?
Yes! Our design team will create a custom rendering of your rug for approval prior to the order being finalized. This allows you to see the exact pattern at your patten, shape, size and color specifications.
We provide this rendering at no costs, and you are welcome to ask for multiple versions if that is helpful.
Please note that even for products available for customization online, your order will not be finalized until the designer-created rendering is approved.

Why did angela adams join 1% For the Planet?
From the very beginning, nature has been at the core of our most inspired designs; but more than that, in our home state of Maine, we are fortunate to have nature all around us. We benefit from seeing the cycles of tides, migrations, blooms and seasons - the beauty in all of those is worth preserving.
We believe our commitment must be deeper than monetary giving, but by having philanthropy at our core, it inspires every decision we make to be with something bigger in mind.
Additional details on our environmental efforts can be found in our environmental stewardship page.
What is GoodWeave?
GoodWeave is a nonprofit organization focused on eliminating child and forced labor in the textile industry.
