Main benefits of Rush grass: ●For All Seasons - With its excellent heat insulation and humidity control properties, it not only maintains optimal indoor humidity at all times, but the air layer inside the material blocks heat on hot days and cold air on cold days, making it warm in winter and cool in summer for comfortable use. ●Cleans the Air and Odors- It has a natural purifying effect on air and odors, reducing odors from toilets, sweat, etc. and keeping the air in the room clean and fresh. ●Relaxing Effect - Its fragrance has a relaxing effect, giving a feeling of openness and healing, as if you are taking a forest bath just by being in the room, reducing stress. ●Regulates humidity -It has excellent moisture absorption properties; when humidity is high, it absorbs moisture and stores it inside the material, and when the room is dry, it releases the moisture stored inside to keep the humidity in the air at an optimal level. ●Easy to care - Stain resistant and does not require washing. For care, basically just vacuum along the mesh to keep it clean.
