EcoCotton
Our EcoCotton bath rugs provide unmatched natural softness and absorbency. An average
size bath rug of EcoCotton recaptures over 4 pounds of cotton that could end up
in land fills. By doing so, we reduce waste and harmful emissions that would otherwise
enter our atmosphere.

Natural Fibers
Karastan wool woven rugs are luxurious, durable, and most importantly, sustainable.
The wool originates on the farms of New Zealand, where sheep are shorn every 9 to
12 months to provide a source of highly renewable material. When our wool rugs eventually
wear out, the wool is completely biodegradable and returns to the earth as an essential
plant nutrient.

Recycled Fibers
One out of every five PET plastic bottles recycled in the United States are recycled
by Mohawk. That's over 3 billion bottles annually that produce our recycled fibers.
EverStrand is the only 100% post-consumer face fiber in the floor covering industry
today. These rugs provide brilliant color clarity, exceptional stain resistance,
and superior durbility.

Recycled Rubber
You can find our recycled products at all the largest retailers. In 2009, we diverted
over 18 million pounds of rubber tires, one of the largest and most hazardous types
of post-consumer waste, from landfills and brought them to homes as designer doormats.
Put another way, that represents enough tires to outfit 225,000 cars. The mat face
or image area is also stamped with 100% recycled flocking.
