Eco Friendly Rugs

In some instances, trying to determine what is the most eco friendly option in a product can prove to be a real challenge. The great thing about rugs however, is there are a few choices that stand out almost immediately as being just the perfect balance of environmentally conscious and still quite resilient and fashionable.

The foremost of these is wool. So the team at Rugs To My Door has taken some of their hottest selling wool rugs and put them into a category that is easy to browse. Details about eco friendly rugs may be found here in a previous entry I made.

If you want to do a quick browse of some of our most popular eco friendly rugs, then take a look at this assortment for starters. The great thing is that area rugs from their inception were actually made of wool. It wasn't until the 197os that the floor covering industry began to manufacturer mass quantities of synthetic fibers that were meant to emulate wool. The reason was to drive the cost of the item down for the consumer. Then the law of supply and demand kicked in and the price of the base product used to make synthetic rugs went up significantly.

So now eco friendly rugs are very reasonably priced and are easier on the environment so it is a win-win. Take a look at some of our eco friendly rug options. When we first put them up, I was personally surprised by the big assortment and range of styles that were offered. I use wool rugs in my home and could not be happier with them. There are a few other options for those looking for eco friendly rugs. They include sisal, coir, seagrass, bamboo just to name a few. I chose to focus on wool because it is the most versatile and easy to maintain of all fibers being offered. An eco friendly rug may be just the thing you are looking for to both brighten your home and soften impact on the environment.
