Rugs intended for use on your patio need to be resistant to fading, mildew and mold. Cleaning must also be a cinch; preferably just a quick hosing down with the garden hose. Most of the rugs that are used on patios are of the indoor/outdoor variety and could easily be used in high traffic areas inside your home also.

Recently, outdoor rug makers have turned to the materials olefin or polypropylene. Olefin is naturally mold resistant. This is also a commonly used material in durable and comfortable indoor carpeting.
