Pappelina Materials and Maintenance

Pappelina's Plastics

Pappelina’s rugs are manufactured from Swedish plastic foil. The plastic foil PVC ribbon is made in southern Sweden by the company Gislaved Folie AB. New raw plastic is used to manufacture the foil, which ensures that no environmentally hazardous or harmful softeners make their way into Pappelina's rugs.

 

Pappelina rugs are 90% plastic ribbon and 10% warp thread. The warp is made from polyester manufactured in Germany.
