Description

The Trinidad Collection features a traditional flat weave wool pattern in non-uniform rows giving the carpet a more dynamic appearance. Useful in higher traffic areas such as hallways, foyers and stairs, this carpet comes in four colors: Charcoal, Linen, Mocha and Silver.

Made from 100% all-natural wool that has been hand-loomed in India and colored using G.O.T.S certified organic dyes. The width is 15’ wide which reduces the need for seams in most rooms. Pattern Repeat: 1.25” W x 1/2” L. Patterns may vary and are not guaranteed to match. Please order a sample to judge the beauty and quality of this style.

If you are looking for an eco-friendly, non-toxic and hypoallergenic 100% wool carpet or area rug to decorate your home, Pure Life is one of the best all-natural options. Pure Life is a collection of beautiful and highly fashionable natural fiber rugs and broadloom carpets that are top-quality and certified. Sourced in India and distributed in the US for 50+ years.

Purity and Safety are the #1 Priority. Pure Life contains no toxic dyes, no permethrins (insecticides), no stain guards (like Scotchgard), no synthetic latex adhesive, no polyester backings, and no antimicrobials (biocides or fungicides). Most synthetic carpets contain some 44 hazardous chemicals according to the Healthy Building Network. Don’t be fooled; most of these carpets are made of nylon, polyester, or PET may call themselves green and sustainable, yet they are all derived from petroleum-based chemicals.

Nothing beats mother nature. Pure Life is handmade in India from all-natural and biodegradable ingredients: 100% wool, all-natural adhesive, natural dyes that are Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) certified, and 100% skin safe.

What about the dyes? The natural dyes are made from herbs, fruits, teas, clays, and other natural materials. Unlike chemical-based dyes or low-impact dyes, Pure Life contains no heavy metals, no azo-dyes, or aryl amines which are known carcinogens. The GOTS certification, which has become the gold standard for organic textiles, doesn’t just focus on the dye but also on the cradle-to-grave process as well as the environmental and social impacts.

Animal friendly? Pure LIfe’s first rule is “Do no harm.” Their wool is sourced only from suppliers that are 100% humane in their treatment of animals.

Good for the planet? You bet. Wool is a renewable resource like bamboo, hardwood, linoleum, and cork. Every year the sheep produce wool with virtually no waste or negative impact on the environment. Once PureLife is discarded it decomposes in 1-5 years…495 years sooner than its synthetic counterparts.

But does it last? Wool carpet has been around much longer than synthetic and is still prized for its softness and because it maintains its cush and appearance. Usually, wool carpet outlasts synthetic fibers three times to one and lasts for many generations if properly cared for.

Never heard of Pure Life? Pure Life is a new collection of 100% natural carpets and area rugs hand-loomed in India with 22 fashion-forward styles.
