Our rugs come with a latex backing that prevents slipping and protects flooring. However, we strongly recommend the use of a rug pad at all times to further protect both the rug and the floor. Please also see our option for urethane-backed Seagrass and Mountain Grass rugs.

		Seagrass Seagrass is a plant fiber derived from tropical grasses of saltwater marshes. The fields that house the seagrass require a flooding of seawater during the crop cycle which creates the non-porous surface that makes the seagrass products naturally smooth and stain resistant. Seagrass has a natural organic green cast to it that tempers and becomes less green over time.

		Sisal A plant fiber derived from the leaves of agave sisalana cactus plant. Sisal fibers are harvested by hand from the leaves of the cactus plant. Sisal is a strong and durable fiber and is one of the strongest amongst the natural fibers. Sisal originates in Central and South America with northeast Brazil being one of the largest producers.

		Mountain Grass Mountain grass is grown in the highland fields of China. It is similar in texture to seagrass (reed-like) but because of the dryer growing conditions has a deeper shade of brown. Our mountain grass is a flatter weave than the seagrass and has a beautiful waxy sheen.
