Natural Fiber Rugs: Why Tibetan Wool?


Benefits of Tibetan Wool Rugs



The best feature about environmentally friendly area rugs іѕ tһаt they are created using sustainable natural resources, which are materials that usually grow back very quickly and do not require chemical intervention for growth.

Natural fibers used in these rugs are biodegradable and free of synthetics. Apart from using plant fibers (like sisal, hemp and cactus for example), we also offer Tibetan wool rugs—another renewable fiber often used for eco-friendly area rugs.

Tibetan wool is known for its high quality, longer fibers. Noted for its long lasting super soft texture Tibetan wool rugs are perfect for humid or high traffic areas. AƖѕο, our non-toxic, hypoallergenic wool prevents the growth of bacteria, thus providing a more hygienic atmosphere. A wool area rug can act as an air filter by trapping contaminants in its fibers.
