There are aesthetic and functional factors to consider when choosing carpet fiber. When you visit Carpet Warehouse in Broomall, PA, it's always best to consider natural fibers, too, along with more traditional synthetic fibers.

Wall wool carpeting and jute, sisal, and seagrass rugs span entire small rooms and elevate any decorating style.

A few of the benefits


If you favor hardwood floors, but the covering is not part of your flooring upgrade plans, you may want to consider a rug made of natural materials that bring earthy color and 'outdoor texture' to a room.

Sisal, jute, and seagrass rugs are all durable and stain-resistant flooring covering options, but if underfoot softness is your most desired characteristic, choose a jute rug.

Wool carpeting


Wool carpeting is more durable than synthetic carpeting, and what's more, this natural floor covering improves the air quality in your home.

Wool absorbs pollutants in the air and moisture, which helps regulate humidity levels in the house. Further, this biodegradable floor is notable for its inherent elasticity that resists crushing.

Natural fiber rugs


Jute, sisal, and seagrass carpeting are available in various weaves and colors that are neutral or warm. These eco-friendly and non-flammable materials don't produce static; because they are abundant, rugs are budget-friendly.

In addition, dirt does not cling to the rugs, so they are easily cleaned by vacuuming with a high suction setting and no beater bar.
