Sisal - A staple fiber in natural flooring

Sisal has been used for centuries to make quality rugs, and it’s now becoming very popular again as environmental awareness is increasingly becoming a priority these days. Natural Area Rugs believes very strongly in environmentally friendly products, and continues to be one of the leading distributors of all natural flooring. Unlike other chemical-ridden synthetic products, sisal rugs deliver flooring satisfaction. The natural sisal threads can be used to create many different designs, and can even easily be dyed. The resulting texture of sisal carpets leaves no wonder as to why the fiber has been used for so many generations.

Sisal comes from agave sisalana, a plant which can be found growing in drier climates. Ancient Egyptians used sisal to make many different fabrics. The actual fibers that are used to make sisal are found within the leaves. They are found in bundles that provide the plant’s rigidity. This gives sisal added durability over other natural fibers. Sisal is extremely versatile. It can easily be dyed, and is suitable for a plethora of indoor locations. Natural Area Rugs specializes in sisal carpets among other rugs made with fibers such as seagrass, jute, mountaingrass, bamboo, and wool.

Interior designers use sisal because of its adaptability. Natural Area Rugs works with many prestigious designers and fashion companies to provide quality rugs and carpets at unheard of prices. The natural look is very popular right now, and will continue to lay the foundation for future decorating schemes.
