Your Natural Flooring Specialist
 
Natural Floorings
Natural fibres such as Sisal, Seagrass, Bamboo, Jute and Coir each have unique properties that make them look and act unlike any other floor covering. Choosing the right fibre for you is vital, especially in areas which will receive heavy usage or are exposed to damp or humid conditions.

At Roy Morgan Carpets we have a lifetime experience in helping customers select the right flooring, please feel free to ask us for help and advice choosing the right fibre for you.

Sisal

Sisal is increasingly popular for its natural strength and the choice of distinct weaves. Hard wearing, Sisal can be used in most areas of the home, with tight weaves being perfect for areas such as halls, corridors and stairs.

Traditionally used in the making of ropes, the plant Agave Sisalana is found in Brazil and East Africa, where the pulpy leaves are crushed, washed and graded before being spun into yarn. The yarn is then spun into one of an array of weaves, ready to be made into high quality carpets.

Seagrass

Grown in the paddy fields of China, where it is seasonally flooded with seawater, Seagrass is very tough fibre with an inherently waxy feel, making it water nd stain resistant but at the same time difficult to dye.

A widely used fibre with very distinct weave patterns, many customers feel the carpet gives an impression of space, brought about by the reflective qualities of this wonderful material.

Coir

Derived from coconut this course fibre is ideal when contrasted against soft furnishings to create a homely feel which is also durable.

Often used in halls, corridors and stairs due to its resilient nature, coir comes from the husk of the coconut, which is softened and then pounded to remove wooden portion, before combing and drying, prior to weaving.

Paper and Bamboo

For those wishing to create a unique feel to a room, using paper or bamboo flooring can be the way to bring a great way to introduce a clean, modern style with sleek lines and a pleasing feel.

Both materials are earthy and bring a surprising strength to compliment the fantastic look and feel of these diverse natural fabrics.
