I want to put a rug under my office chair, but I’m worried about wear and tear. What rug material and style hold up best?
The best rug for an office chair is a low-pile, flat-weave, or loop-pile rug made from durable, synthetic fibers like nylon or polypropylene.
Recommended Types:
- Flatweave & Low-Pile: Ideal for smooth rolling; tight weaves prevent snags.
- Wool: Durable, naturally resistant to wear, and adds warmth.
- Polypropylene (Synthetic): Resists stains, moisture, and heavy traffic well.
- Indoor/Outdoor Rugs: Tough, easy to clean, and smooth for gliding.
- Jute (Tight Weave): Offers great texture and durability if tightly woven.
- Carpet Tiles (e.g., Flor): Excellent for larger areas as they're heavy-backed and can be cut to shape.
Avoid high-pile or shag rugs, as the wheels will catch and damage them. A chair mat placed on top of the rug offers the best protection for both the rug and your floor.
