Simply put: a carpet suitable for outdoor use. So it can withstand all weather conditions - from bright sunshine to pouring rain. To withstand a beating, outdoor rugs are made of weather-resistant materials. Often with a special weaving style (usually a flat weave) and manufacturing method to ensure durability.
Often made of synthetic fibres with polypropylene, a material that is resistant to stains and fungus, hardly discolours under the influence of the sun, and does not absorb water. Nylon fibres also qualify, thanks to their resilience and resistance to stains and intensive walking. Polyester is also an option, although it does not tolerate as much foot traffic. Acrylic is also possible, especially if you prefer a natural look. Just keep in mind that the material is a bit more sensitive.
Yes! There are outdoor rugs in bamboo, hemp and sisal. They look very natural, and are perfect for bohemian, rustic or country styles. Although these materials are sustainable and eco-friendly, they are less able to withstand rain and sun. Preferably put them in a somewhat sheltered spot such as a covered terrace or balcony.
It depends on the material, but generally it requires little effort to keep your outdoor rug clean. Most can be brushed or wiped clean. Be sure to pat them down regularly too to remove superficial dirt and dust.
Something spilled? Then shoot into action quickly with a mild detergent. Some carpets tolerate bleach - useful for stubborn dirt. Usually it is enough to clean your carpet with water: a quick spray with the garden hose and you're done.

It certainly can. It is even recommended if there is a lot of walking inside, or if you have playing children or pets. Because of their robust materials, outdoor carpets are the perfect choice for households with occasional spills or intensive play. They therefore come in handy in kitchens, playrooms and dining areas.
Remember: the reverse is not true. Never lay an indoor carpet outside, as it will soon lose its charm and other qualities.
