Q:Can Hug Rugs go on certain brands of flooring, e.g. Karndean flooring (LVT), laminate flooring etc?
A:Karndean do not recommend rubber backed products, however with all mats if you were to use a Hug Rug lift them regularly to allow airflow beneath them but they must be used at owners discretion – we cannot accept responsibility for any damage to flooring. Hug Rugs can be used with under floor heating.
Q:Do Hug Rugs slip/move when placed on carpets?
A:There can be slight movement when placed on carpet.
Q:Am I able to cut Hug Rugs to size?
A:Yes. When cutting a Hug Rug to size it is always recommend to cut slightly larger than necessary (or wash before cutting), due to possible shrinkage after washing the Hug Rug. Shrinkage is unusual, however as with all textiles, can occur. Please ensure to use a sharp blade to get a clean edge when cutting. Our mats are tufted into very small loops so if one half is cut, the other half will come out but this is the most fraying which will occur.
