About performance rugs

Life happens, and performance rugs are made for exactly that. This collection of synthetic rugs is designed to be easy to clean and maintain, making them a wonderful choice for families, pet owners and anyone who'd like to spend a little less time thinking about extra cleaning. Incredibly soft and available in a wide range of styles, the more compact weave of performance area rugs hold their own in busier areas of the home such as living spaces and mudrooms. Every durable rug in this collection is made to your exact custom size at Ernesta, so there's no compromising on fit.

When styling performance rugs in higher-traffic areas, lean toward deeper tones and patterns, which wear more gracefully over time. For lower-traffic spaces, lighter colors and softer patterns can work well. The versatility of this collection makes it easy to find the best fit for your home's palette and your family's pace.

Performance rug FAQs

A performance rug (aka high performance rug) is a rug that is typically made from a synthetic fiber like nylon, polysilk or polypropylene. They are sometimes called pet-friendly rugs because they are easy to clean and can withstand a lot of wear and tear. Performance area rugs can come in a variety of styles, ranging from simple solids to shine pile to super plush.
When it comes to choosing a performance rug for your space, it’s essential to consider both material and size. In terms of size, too often people default to the basics: performance rugs that are 9x12 and performance rugs that are 8x10. But a custom-sized rug can truly transform your space. If you’re intimidated by measuring your space, begin with a few basic tips from our custom rug sizing guide. Need more help? Reach out to our Design Experts at [email protected].
You’re in luck: caring for a performance rug is quite easy. Performance rugs are often made with materials that are quite stain-resistant and durable. This means they are easy-to-clean and can withstand a lot of wear and tear. That said, you should always treat your performance rug with care by rotating, vacuuming, and spot treating it regularly.
