ecoFiber custom rugs: A carbon-neutral opportunity

http://ecofibercustomrugs.blogspot.com/2012/03/carbon-neutral-opportunity.html

Tuesday, March 13, 2012. The typical journey of a 60,000 pound rug shipment from Kathmandu to New York amounts to 25 tons of carbon dioxide equivalent. To put this figure in context, 25 tons of carbon is equivalent to the electricity usage of 12 homes over the course of a year or the use of 9,500 gallons of gasoline. Working with Goodweave and Carbon Clear is another example of how ecoFiber is working to reduce our environmental impact, while maintaining the aesthetics we hold dear. Visit our site .

ecoFiber custom rugs: Why Vegetable Dyed Rugs are Better

http://ecofibercustomrugs.blogspot.com/2010/04/why-vegetable-dyed-rugs-are-better.html

Tuesday, April 6, 2010. Why Vegetable Dyed Rugs are Better. It’s always been interesting to me that progessive “new” efforts to go green often mean simply returning to the way humans did things for centuries—and natural fiber and vegetable dyed rugs.

In fact, until the middle of the 19. Century, natural dyed rugs. Dozens of carpet dy...
