What are regenerable fibers?

Renewable and regenerable fibers used in rug-making include natural materials like wool, sisal, seagrass, and TENCEL™. These materials offer sustainable flooring options that don't rely on synthetic, petroleum-derived materials.

Wool is the quintessential renewable fiber used in the making of carpets. Ethically sourced wool considers the welfare of the animal and the wellness of the planet, which is why companies like Best Wool Carpets partner with ZQ to create the Monasch Collection.

Not necessarily. Although many rugs made from regenerable fibers like wool or sisal may be chemical-free or organic, other factors like the backing, dyes, and moth-proofing ultimately determine the classification. Wool rugs are often moth-proofed and sisal rugs may have a synthetic latex backing. Always check the specifications.

For a chemical-free rug, look for undyed, untreated options. No dyes, no moth-proofing, no flame retardant. EarthSISAL™ and the Pure Wool Collection offer PFAS-free, low-toxicity options for the home.

TENCEL™ is a silk-like botanic fiber regenerated from wood pulp that originates from sustainably-grown and renewable eucalyptus forests. This high-performing cellulose fiber is biodegradable, compostable and creates gorgeous yarns as showcased in weaves like Almora and Seoni from Jacaranda.

Learn more about TENCEL™ by visiting the Jacaranda Collection.

Rugs made with wool, sisal, seagrass, jute and coir are not only durable and beautiful, but also inherently sustainable. The fibers are biodegradable, environmentally low-impact, and long-lasting—an ideal foundation for eco-conscious living spaces.
