Best Eco Area Rugs

Most carpeting is made from synthetic, petroleum-based materials backed with PVC that outgas harmful chemicals long after the carpet has been installed. A healthier and more eco-friendly alternative? Area rugs made from recycled fabrics, wool, organic cotton, and hemp. In addition to their environmental and health benefits, area rugs can be easier and more economical to clean. Plus, since they can be moved from room to room and often reversed, they offer great versatility.

Best of the Best:

Area rugs come in many patterns and textures. The most environmentally friendly are made from recycled fabrics by fair trade artisans. Enjoy these colorful patterns.
