It retains very little moisture which makes it resistant to mold and mildew; what's more it's treated with UV protection to resist fading. At the same time the fibers are so soft you'll swear they're cotton.

DuraCord is produced under strict manufacturing standards and undergoes ultraviolet treatments and other anti-microbial enhancements which help keep it from degrading even under the worst outdoor conditions. Jute which is often used in the construction of outdoor rugs is not part of the make-up of DuraCord rugs or their backing since it often causes mildew growth.

DuraCord is soft with an extra-thick loft that's unlike any outdoor rug you've ever experienced - in fact it's soft enough for use indoors too! It features UV protection that stands up to 1000 hours of exposure (keeping the dyes from fading) and is fast-drying with .05% moisture retention. It's also resistant to stains abrasions mildew and bleach.

Finally DuraCord is environmentally friendly. Producing these rugs requires less energy and water than production of other synthetic fibers that don't last as long and DuraCord offers a recycling program that lets you return your rug for recycling when it's reached the end of its lifespan.

The Hand-Hooking ProcessTo create your DuraCord rug craftspeople following strict design standards use an ancient hand-hooking technique developed in the Orient. First the design of the rug is placed onto the base synthetic canvas. The canvas is then stretched onto a frame at which point the artisans will begin the true creation of the rug. DuraCord yarn which begins life wound onto spools is threaded into a rug needle and hooked into the canvas following the transferred lines of the design.

After hooking the rug is finished with a weather-proof binding adhesive and an open-weave net which help hold the rug together and keep its shape and size intact. Plush comfortable durable and incredibly detailed these high-quality rugs are originals - because of the nature of handcraftsmanship no two are exactly alike.
