Phoenox Tiles: HugRug launches outdoor collection

 

Hug Rug has always been a brand defined by sustainability and comfort, and creating beautifully designed pieces that care for the home, and the planet. This season, we’ve launched our latest innovation – Hug Rug Outdoor Collection.

 

Built with the same eco-friendly principles that define Hug Rug, our brand-new outdoor range combines practicality with timeless British design. Each doormat is made to stand the test of time - crafted using ECONYL® regenerated nylon which is made by removing nylon waste destined for landfill, our Hug Rug Outdoor range is made using fully recycled material. Perfect for doorways, or patios, they pair perfectly with our Printed Cotton Hug Rugs too!

 

Not only is the Outdoor Collection another step in our sustainability journey, it’s enabled us to rethink how outdoor textiles are made. Created in some of our bestselling designs, these outdoor mats are hardwearing, and jet-washable, so they’re easy to care for too.

 

Meanwhile, our range of Hug Rug Eco-Washable Rugs has expanded to reflect the latest trends in interior styling, ensuring there’s something for everyone. From bright floral designs to traditional plaids, every piece has been designed with both function and aesthetics in mind. Our one-piece design means there’s no fuss – just pop in the washing machine to refresh!

 

At Hug Rug, our commitment to innovation continues to go hand in hand with our values. Every Hug Rug continues to be made in the UK, using eco-conscious manufacturing processes and materials. So, whether it’s a collection of dirt trapping outdoor mats, or a selection of elegant easy-to-care-for rugs you’re looking for, Hug Rug will stand up to daily wear, whilst being a sustainable style you can feel good about.
