Reasons to Love Synthetic Rugs
Impart warmth and style to your home with synthetic rugs. Pottery Barn has a wide variety of floor coverings made from durable synthetic materials; they come in colors and prints to match your home. You'll find plenty of options, whether you're looking for a rug to match the living room curtains or one to accent the bedroom.
Top Features of Synthetic Rugs
Synthetic materials are often preferred for rugs because they're sturdy and often environmentally-friendly. For example, the Solid Shag Eco-Friendly Easy Care rug is made from recycled polyester sourced from plastic bottles. It has a plush 1-inch pile for a luxe look and feel. A similar option is the Lillia rug. It has an elegant textured pattern and comes in several neutral colors.
If you like the look of antique floor coverings, check out the Carina synthetic rug. The soft blue color and Persian-style design make it a stylish choice for the living room or bedroom. It's made from 100 percent polyester to withstand heavy foot traffic; the material is also easy to clean. This rug has a cotton and synthetic latex backing, so there's no latex odor and it won't trigger latex allergies.
For a more contemporary look, there's the Joey indoor/outdoor rug. It's crafted from polypropylene, which is a synthetic material also known as olefin. This material is popular for indoor/outdoor rugs because it looks like natural fiber and resists stains, mold and mildew. Another rug that can be placed indoors or out is the polyester and acrylic Coral Border rug. It has an ocean-inspired coral reef design and comes in multiple colors.
Enhance your living room or bedroom with the Rebecca Atwood Surf rug for a designer look. It features a blue watercolor design and is made from PET, which is 100 percent recycled plastic. Another rug from this designer is the Reflections style; it has a cheerful circular pattern in oceanic watercolor tones and is also made from eco-friendly PET. Both rugs are self-binding, which prevents the edges from curling up over time.
Other Types of Floor Coverings
In addition to synthetic rugs, Pottery Barn has floor coverings crafted from wool, cotton, jute, sisal and other premium materials. Browse the selection to find plenty of solid and patterned rugs for indoors and out. No matter which rug you select, it's a good idea to use a rug pad underneath. Rug pads help keep the rug in place, and they add a layer of thickness for added comfort. Pottery Barn has several rug pad styles from which to choose, including one that's suitable for outdoor use.
