Hearth rugs add a traditional touch to your fireplace and create a dignified ambiance for any room. They come in various shapes, sizes, and colors to suit any design. These fireplace rugs meet the DOC FFI-70 standard for surface flammability of carpets and rugs. Fireplace hearth rugs keep your carpet and floors safe from flying sparks.
The most popular natural fiber rugs for the hearth are made of wool, sisal, jute, seagrass, and hemp or combinations of these materials. Be sure to select a rug that is specifically designed for use near a fireplace since these are required to meet specific requirements that reduce their surface flammability. Some rugs are coated in fire retardant chemicals to increase their fire resistance.
A hearth rug protects your carpet or hardwood floors from the danger of flying sparks, scratches from logs, etc. A rug is much easier to replace than more permanent flooring. A hearth rug adds not only protection, but style to your space. These beautiful rugs can be the visual center of the space as well as being functional.
