What is a polypropylene carpet?
Polypropylene rugs (also known as olefin rugs) are designed to look like sisal, but they are actually made from synthetic fibres.
Polypropylene — the main ingredient in the rug — is simply a polymer created from monomer propylene and is frequently used in packaging, labels, textiles, and reusable containers. Considering how widely polypropylene is used, odds are you already have plenty of it in use at your home.
These polypropylene fibres are specifically made to look exactly like wool, sisal, and other common rug fibres. Once made, these fibres are machine woven into unique rugs that look exactly like the real deal but come with the added benefits of being man-made. For example, polypropylene rugs are carefully designed for superior comfort and resilience, making them versatile rugs that can find a home in both the indoors and outdoors
