Grey rugs suited for every preference
At vidaXL, we offer a large variety of grey rugs made with different techniques and offering different feels to suit every preference. That also includes handmade options where you can truly sense the craftsmanship in every little detail.
Knotted grey rugs
Crafted with intricate detail, knotted grey rugs boast exceptional strength and durability. As such, they’re well-suited for high-traffic areas where resilience is key. They often feature unique patterns created using different coloured threads, with the quality of the rug determined by the thread count per square inch.
Tufted grey rugs
Tufted grey rugs offer rich comfort underfoot, making them perfect for creating a cosy atmosphere in any room. These rugs are crafted by punching wool onto a canvas frame, with a fabric backing added for durability. Their plush texture provides a soft surface to walk on, and they’re available in a variety of designs, allowing you to showcase your personal style.
High-pile grey rugs
High-pile grey rugs feature long, plush fibres that create a luxurious and inviting feel. These rugs add warmth and texture to any space, making them ideal for bedrooms and living rooms where comfort is paramount. Their soft, fluffy texture provides a comfortable surface to sit or lounge on, while also adding a touch of elegance to your decor.
Low-pile grey rugs
For a more streamlined look, consider low-pile grey rugs. These rugs have shorter fibres than their high-pile counterparts, offering a sleek and modern aesthetic. Low-pile rugs are generally easy to clean and maintain, making them a practical choice for busy households or areas with heavy foot traffic.
Flatwoven grey rugs
Flatwoven grey rugs are versatile and durable, making them suitable for a wide range of spaces. These rugs are woven on a loom using a cotton blend, resulting in a tightly woven surface that’s both resilient and affordable. They’re available in various patterns and designs, making it easy to find a tasteful woven rug in grey to complement your decor style.
Shop grey rugs with handy non-slip backing
Are your rugs always slipping and sliding around, causing potential accidents in your home? We understand the frustration of constantly readjusting your rugs to keep them in place. That's why we offer various grey rugs with handy non-slip backing.
The non-slip backing ensures that your grey rug remains firmly anchored, even in high-traffic areas or households with children and pets. As such, you can enjoy peace of mind knowing that your rugs will stay securely in place, providing a strong grip on any floor surface. Say goodbye to slips, trips and falls caused by unruly rugs.

Choose a grey rug that fits the intended space
When choosing the perfect grey rug for your space, it's essential to consider which option will make the best fit for the intended room and your specific needs. Whether you're furnishing your living room, dining room, bedroom, hallway or kitchen, there’s a grey rug for you.
Grey rugs in the living room
For your living room, think about whether you need a statement piece or if you prefer an area rug that ties the room together. A large grey rug can create a relaxing atmosphere in your sofa area, while a small plush grey rug makes a great choice for the small reading corner. Consider the size and shape that will best complement your furniture layout.
Grey rugs in the dining room
In the dining room, opt for a statement rug that doesn't necessarily have to be vibrant in colour but draws attention to its material and texture. Choose a rug size that accommodates your dining table and allows space for chairs to slide in and out comfortably. Practicality is key, so select a material that’s easy to clean if you or your guest happen to spill food or drinks on the rug,
Grey rugs in the bedroom
In the bedroom, focus on comfort and style. Choose a rug that extends about 45 centimetres around your bed, providing a soft landing for your feet when you wake up in the morning. Consider a less expensive option since a large portion of the rug will be covered by the bed. Our plush rugs offer excellent thermal insulation and add a cosy touch to your bedroom decor.
Grey rugs in the kitchen
For the kitchen, functionality is paramount. Opt for a grey rug with a tight pile, such as jute, that’s easy to clean if needed. Long runners are ideal for providing comfort and warmth in high-traffic areas, while soft rugs provide cushioning against those often cold tiles or laminate flooring.
Grey rugs in the hallway
For hallways, choose a rug that’s durable and easy to clean, as it will likely encounter dirt and debris from outdoor shoes. Consider a low-pile rug that’s flat and tightly woven, as this will be easier to vacuum and less likely to trap dirt. Additionally, opt for a non-slip backing or rug pad to ensure safety and stability, especially in areas where the rug may be prone to shifting.
Tips for cleaning your grey rug
Keeping your grey rug clean is essential for maintaining its appearance and longevity. Here are some simple tips to help you keep your rug looking its best:
- Regular vacuuming - Vacuum your grey rug regularly to remove dirt, dust and debris. This helps prevent particles from settling into the fibres and causing damage over time.
- Spot cleaning - Treat spills and stains promptly to prevent them from setting into the rug. Blot the affected area with a clean cloth or paper towel to absorb as much liquid as possible, then use a gentle cleaning solution and a soft brush to clean the spot. Avoid rubbing the stain, as this can cause it to spread.
- Extensive cleaning - Depending on the material of your grey rug, you may need to have it professionally cleaned from time to time. Some rugs can be washed in the washing machine at temperatures up to 30 degrees Celsius, while others may require specialised cleaning services.
- Rotate your rug - To prevent uneven wear and tear, rotate your grey rug regularly, especially in high-traffic areas. This helps distribute foot traffic and ensures that your rug wears evenly over time.
By following these simple cleaning tips, you can keep your grey rug looking fresh and beautiful for years to come. Remember always to check the care instructions provided by the manufacturer to ensure you're cleaning your rug properly and effectively.
