This is a carpet unlike any other produced in North America. First of all it is
COMPLETELY biodegradable. Obviously, this is achieved through the use of
only 100% natural raw materials. The Bio-Floor line is made with a face fiber
of 100% natural wool.
There are no moth proofing or stain protections applied. In conjunction with
this we use only naturally pigmented wool fibers for coloration as opposed to
any of the harsh dyes and chemical bonding agents other carpet
manufacturers use. To further differentiate this carpet we use a natural
primary of hemp and cotton. This is used instead of the traditional synthetic
polypropylene primary. The primary is the material that the tufting machine
places the wool yarn into and acts to hold it in place.
The next process is the application of adhesive and secondary backing
material. This further helps to lock the stitches in place and prevents slippage
of the yarn. This is another area where we apply our unique techniques. The
adhesive that Earth Weave uses is 100% natural and bio-degradable. It is
made of natural rubber from the rubber tree. The secondary (back of carpet)
is made from jute, a hardy earth friendly fiber producing plant.
All of these elements add up to make a product that is beautiful to look at
yet sacrifices nothing in the way of our commitment to indoor air quality and
the environment.
