Upcycled Fishnet Carpets

These Eco-Friendly Modular Carpets Can Be Adjusted & Re-Sized

— July 8, 2015 — Eco
FLOR teamed up with Net Effects to create an eco-friendly modular carpet system that allows you to create, design an re-create carpet layouts over and over again. Each one of the FLOR tiles is manufactured using completely recycled materials. In particular, they use discarded fishing net plastic that poses a threat to water creatures and the environment.

Each carpet is complete with a set of colorful squares that can be arranged in any way you desire. To place the squares on your floor, FLOR uses a toxic-free adhesive system on the perimeter of the carpet squares that connects each piece without touching the floor.

These playful modular carpet designs let adults show their playful side. These carpets are perfect for homes or offices. They are very kid-friendly and will absorb any spills that occur because the carpets are created to be "impervious to moisture, and spills and stains won’t seep through the carpet."
