Fiscus Rug

Key Features of the Fiscus Rug

1. Eco-Friendly Upcycled Polypropylene

The Fiscus Rug is crafted from upcycled polypropylene, making it an environmentally conscious choice. By repurposing plastic waste, Shuttleworth Weaving helps reduce landfill pollution while delivering a durable, long-lasting product. Unlike traditional wool or cotton rugs, polypropylene is resistant to mold, mildew, and moisture—making it an excellent choice for outdoor use.

2. Handmade for Superior Quality

Each Fiscus Rug is handwoven by expert artisans, ensuring that no two rugs are identical. The meticulous craftsmanship results in a high-quality finish with rich texture and depth. The six-week weaving process involves intricate techniques that contribute to the rug’s durability and aesthetic appeal, providing a luxurious touch to any setting.

3. Designed for Indoor & Outdoor Versatility

The Fiscus Rug is engineered to withstand both indoor and outdoor conditions. Whether used to complement a contemporary lounge or to create a cozy atmosphere on a patio, this rug’s weather-resistant properties make it an excellent choice. Ideal for high-traffic areas, it is resistant to spills, stains, and fading, ensuring long-lasting beauty.

4. Custom Sizes for Every Space

Finding the perfect rug size is effortless with the Fiscus Rug’s customizable options. Available in sizes up to 6 meters by 6 meters, this rug can be tailored to fit various spaces—whether it’s a compact reading nook, an elegant dining area, or a vast entertainment zone. If you’re looking for a truly unique design, Shuttleworth Weaving also offers custom designs to match your home’s specific aesthetic.
