Sisal Rugs

Sustainable Sisal Runners and Rugs

Sisal fabric is made from a plant called agave sisalana, which is grown with few pesticides or herbicides in desert climates. The durable strong fibres that come from the plant are an excellent material for sisal rugs, runners and mats, particularly for those interested in sustainable furnishings or looking for low-allergen floor coverings.

Sisal rugs and carpets are gaining in popularity in the UK, thanks to the low impact way they are produced. Sisal mats are durable and become softer with use – the more you walk on a sisal rug, or hoover it, the softer it becomes. Sisal rugs are generally a light, natural colour although you can buy cheap sisal rugs in grey, browns and other colours also. Sisal fibres naturally pull humidity from the atmosphere making them an ideal choice for homes and offices in damper areas of the UK.

Large sisal rugs are a perfect addition to outdoor areas thanks to the durable nature of the material. For interiors, sisal rugs can provide warmth, help reduce humidity in the home and protect floors in high traffic areas. Sisal runners and rounds are a simple way to add a natural feel to interior décor.
