A tribute to the Japanese cherry blossom. Delicate floral motifs in soft, serene colours, quiet and poetic.

This design is also available as a round rug and an organic-shaped rug.

Is the rug washable and suitable for outdoor use?

The rug is machine washable at 30 °C, and the colours will remain vibrant for a long time. Small sizes fit in a home washing machine, while large rugs are best washed in a high-capacity machine. It works just as well in the living room as it does on a patio, balcony, or in a conservatory and is suitable for underfloor heating. The back is finished with an anti-slip coating. In high-traffic areas, we recommend using an additional anti-slip rug pad.

How thick is the rug?

It is only 3 mm thick. The rug is flat-woven like a kilim and has no pile. This allows it to lie flush under doors and furniture, collect less dust, and be folded for transport or storage. If you are looking for a thick, soft high-pile rug, this is not the one for you. In return, you get a clean, easy-care surface.

What is the rug made of?

The rug is made from a single material: polyester, 70% of which is recycled PET (rPET). The recycled content increases every year (20% in 2023, 40% in 2025, 70% in 2026), with a goal of 100%. Because no material mix is used, the rug can be fully recycled at the end of its life. The weaving technique was developed and patented by Louis De Poortere in their own R&D department in Mouscron.

What happens to the rug when it reaches the end of its life?

Once the rug has reached the end of its life, you scan the QR code on the back and Louis De Poortere will collect it free of charge. Rugs in good condition are resold, and all others are processed into new polyester yarn.

Who manufactures the rug?

Louis De Poortere is a fourth-generation Belgian family business that has been weaving rugs since 1929. Every rug is created in their own production facility in Belgium.
