Olefin, which is also referred to as polypropylene, is a synthetic fiber used in constructing some of the rugs offered on Rugzilla.com. Olefin is a very light fiber and often resembles wool. Some of it's outstanding qualities include stain resistance, easy cleanability and a low absortion factor. Olefin is also mold and mildew resistant.
Perhaps one of the best features of a olefin rug compared to a wool rug is that olefin is color fast. That means it will not run or bleed and is the most fade resistant fiber available. Brand new wool rugs will tend to shed and fuzz and will often fade a bit over time. Start searching for an olefin rug on Rugzilla.com today!
