The Flatwoven Rug Covers are 100% polyester (the top of the cover is made of woven polyester chenille style yarn and the bottom is a polyester knit). The two layers of fabric are bonded together and made of 100% polyester. This makes it possible to recycle the cover because it is all made of the same synthetic material. Another interesting note about polyester is that the fiber does not absorb liquid. Yes, liquid will be absorbed in between the fibers but not within the fiber. This is why stains and odours wash out so easily.
Our Shaggy and Plush Moroccan rugs are made from modacrylic, acrylic and polyester with a water-resistant polyurethane barrier. Soft, plush and lightweight, this blend of textiles is also mildew-, stain- and flame-resistant. The difference lies more in the texture.
Our Standard and Cushioned Rug Pads consist of a partially recycled polyester surface and a thermoplastic rubber bottom, a latex-free, synthetic material most commonly used in yoga mats. Our Cushioned Rug Pads have an additional 100% recycled polyester middle layer for added cushion.
