Chances are that Fred Flintstone's man cave may not have had a comfy Eames chair or a lot of other designer accessories, but it's a safe bet that it was considerably enhanced with a Sisal area rug. In fact, Sisal rugs' rich cultural history goes back to the start of civilization.

Fast forward to the 19th century, Sisal's popularity had spread worldwide and was being cultivated wherever the Agave plant flourished, most notably Tanzania, Kenya, Asia and other balmy locals like the Caribbean islands and South America. Today, Brazil is the major world producer of Sisal, a natural fiber harvested from the Agave plant. Nary a smidgen of the Agave is wasted. Some visionary discovered that the root ball of the plant could be hacked up, fermented and turned into a beverage famously known as Tequila.  

Sisal is environmentally and architecturally neutral and comes in a wide variety of styles, patterns and colorways. It is a very durable and soft material whose fibers are spun into a thick and supple yarn that is woven into complex patterns used to create area rugs and broadloom. Sisal's natural attributes make it fire retardant, sound absorbing and anti-static. Nothing to sneeze about, it is also hypoallergenic. 

Sisal is much stronger than most other natural fibers that are found in rugs, such as flax, jute, and hemp. It is a lasting player in the rug game. With its multitude of beneficial characteristics, this renewable resource, combined with its beauty, durability, and superiority to all other plant-based natural options, make it a hands-down winner. Its affordability is incredible.
