Environmental Commitment All products from Unique Carpets, Ltd. are manufactured with a commitment that balances both the physical well-being of our customers and the physical well-being of the environment.

100% NATURAL WOOL For thousands of years, wool has been the fiber of choice in carpet and rug manufacturing. Aside from its heralded performance and unsurpassed aesthetics, 100% pure wool is an environmentally sound selection in that it is completely biodegradable and, since the earth’s natural resources are not depleted in its production, it is a renewable resource. Most Unique products are manufactured with 100% pure wool.

MOTHPROOFING Approved world-wide as an effective and safe mothproofing agent is Permethrin. It is also used as an insecticide on a variety of crops such as hops, cotton, fruit, and vegetables. It is widely used in greenhouses, market gardens, and vineyards, and is applied in a variety of ways. In regular use, as described above, it has been shown to be non-toxic to humans and, if ingested, passes through the system quickly and completely with no residual effects. When used as a mothproofing agent, Permethrin is used in much smaller quantities than previously described since it is not intended as an insecticide but rather an agent that limits the ability of eggs to hatch or larvae to feed. It will not kill adult insects that walk across the carpet. All wool carpets from Unique are treated with Permethrin.

NATURAL LATEX Natural latex is not used by any producers of quality broadloom carpets for two reasons: Natural latex has over one hundred known allergy related proteins. Synthetic latex, a petroleum-based by-product, is used on all Unique products. It is very effective as an adhesive and possesses none of the health risks associated with natural latex.

POLYPROPYLENE Polypropylene is commonly used as a primary backing and often as a secondary backing. For over twenty years, we have used it in the carpets we manufacture. Polypropylene is also a petroleum-based by-product and is so safe that it is commonly used as air filters, bandages, and protective netting in hospitals.

FORMALDEHYDE Formaldehyde IS NOT USED in any phase of carpet and rug manufacturing.
