Tocorico Jacquard Jungle Rug - Green

The Tocorico Outdoor Rug measures 120 x 180cm and carries a bold jungle leaf print in green and white, woven with a jacquard technique that builds the pattern into the surface rather than printing it on top. It is made from 100% polypropylene, a plastic yarn chosen for outdoor use because it does not soak up water and shrugs off the sun, so the colour holds through a season of weather rather than fading in the first fortnight of good light. The flat woven construction gives it a low, hardwearing surface that sits close to the ground.

At 120 x 180cm this is a generous piece for a patio seating area, a garden dining spot or a decked terrace, large enough to anchor a couple of chairs and a small table without swallowing a compact space. Polypropylene is the sensible choice underfoot outdoors: it stays comfortable in bare feet, it does not hold damp the way a natural fibre would, and a hose or a wipe deals with the mud and pollen a garden throws at it. The green and white leaf design reads well against timber decking and pale rendered walls, and sits happily beside rattan and natural wood furniture.

The rug is reversible, so the pattern appears on both faces and you get two working sides from one piece; turn it over to freshen the look or to even out wear. The woven jacquard gives the surface a little texture and depth rather than a flat block of colour. Cleaning is straightforward, which is what you want from anything living outside. Roll it away over winter if you would rather it did not sit under months of rain, and unroll it again when the weather turns.

Can this rug be left outside?

Yes, it is made for outdoor use. Polypropylene does not absorb water and resists fading in sunlight, so it copes with patios, gardens and decking through the warmer months.

How do I clean it?

It is an easy-care rug, so brushing off loose dirt and rinsing with a hose or wiping with a damp cloth handles most of what a garden brings. Let it dry fully before rolling it away.

Is the pattern on both sides?

Yes, the design is reversible, so both faces carry the jungle leaf print. You can turn it over to change the look or to spread out wear over time.

What size is it and what will it suit?

It measures 120 x 180cm, a good fit for a patio seating group or a small outdoor dining area with a couple of chairs and a table.

What is it made from?

It is woven from 100% polypropylene, a hardwearing plastic yarn used outdoors because it stays comfortable underfoot, does not hold damp and stands up to weather and UV.
