Braid Rise is an oval shaped rug with a design informed by the intricate drawings found on pebbles and rocks, narrating the passage of time and resilience. It features a soft dual colour composition following the proportion of 60% to 40%.
The rug incorporates thick and thin braided ropes – one made from 32 yarns in four colours, the other with eight yarns in two colours. To make the rug, the thin rope is stitched in a gentle curve along the thick ropes, adding a sense of visual rhythm and texture. The ropes are then assembled in a spiral, stitched together and secured with a fine border rope, featuring a refined 10cm wrapping detail. This stitching technique results in minimal production waste.
Braid Rise is available in three serene colour combinations – sand and kaolin, fluorite and kaolin, and slate and basalt. Custom colour options are available upon request. Ideal for heavy residential and commercial applications, Braid Rise brings elegance and functionality to contemporary interiors and supports a range of practical needs, including optional cut-outs for floor tanks.

A steel tumbler with rubber studs rolls freely in a rotating drum and wears the surface of the test samples inside of the drum. After 5.000 and 20.000 turns the sample is examined and rated by five inspectors based on the changes in its surface structure and colour.
Rugs that meet the minimum requirements of the test are rated from 21 (worst) to 23 (best) for residential use and 31 (worst) to 33 (best) for residential and commercial use.

Flame retardant performance depends on the type of foam used. There are differing requirements concerning the flame-retardancy of textiles dependent on the area of application, country or even region. Our textiles pass the majority of international standards and are also tested for a selection of regional requirements.

LightFastness {{site.selectedConfiguration.lightFastness}}
ISO 105-B02
Lightfastness relates to the ability of a textile to retain its colour under light. When testing for lightfastness, samples are exposed to artificial daylight for a specified period.
The evaluation scale ranges from 1 (worst) to 8 (best). An increase of one point corresponds to a doubling of the lightfastness, i.e. the same fading takes twice as long.

There are many things you can do to take good care of your rug and ensure it maintains its vitality and character for as long as possible.

Stain removal
Remove stains immediately. Do not rub to remove the stain, this may cause irreversible damage to your rug. First, place a clean cotton/microfibre cloth and leave it on the stain until it has been absorbed. Then place another, clean damp cotton/microfibre cloth on the stain and leave it there until it’s dry. Do not lift the cloth until it has dried completely. If the stain is still visible repeat the treatment with the damp cloth or carefully water the stain and absorb the water again with a cotton/microfibre cloth. If needed, dab the stain by working from the edge of the stain inwards. Allow the rug to dry thoroughly, front and back. We recommend using only water and no washing detergent or chlorine bleach. We have had very good results with this method, however Kvadrat cannot guarantee that this method will remove all stains. Specific care instructions for rugs made from bamboo viscose, lyocell, silk, jute, linen, hemp, and polypropylene are available in the Important Characteristics tab.

Regular care
Regular cleaning is important to keep your rug looking its best and to prolong its life. Please vacuum your rug regularly, ideally once a week, to prevent any soiling from staining or damaging it. Dust and dirt act like sandpaper when walking on the rug, wearing it down over time. We recommend using a vacuum cleaner set on low to medium power without applying any brush. Always vacuum your rug lengthwise and in the direction of the pile. If you have a robot vacuum cleaner, please check with the manufacturer if it is suitable to use on your rug. The rug should be rotated from time to time to avoid abrasion on one spot. Repeated friction on the same spot can change the structure of the rug.
