Natural Characteristics of Sisal Sprouts - Short fibers that were tucked in during the manufacturing process. Seagrass, jute, and hemp are short fibers. During handling, they sprout. Clipping sprouts is recommended. Variation in Loop Size - Carpets made of natural fibers may have irregular yarns that can create appearance of a variance in loop size (warp or weft yarns). Variations of either thick or thin yarns within 50% of normal are allowed. Shedding of Loose Fibers is Normal - It is a natural result of the process used to create carpets. When floor coverings are produced, a combing process occurs, which helps remove short and broken fibers. However, some fibers fall onto the surface of the pile and appear as 'fluff'. The shedding can vary depending on the material type. Irregularity in the Ribs - Some ribs will be closer together, some farther apart. Bowing - Industry standard allows up to 2% bowing of woven broadloom carpet. Bowing should be taken into consideration when planning for a seam. Color Changes - Natural fibers eventually return to their original color. Bleached products darken over time, and dyed fibers fade. Avoid direct sunlight. Color Variance - Showroom samples may not match current inventory. Roll differences are more significant with natural fibers than synthetic ones. Materials from different rolls are seldom the exact same color. Striation - Color variance lines are normal in natural fiber carpet because color variances occur naturally. Foreign Yarns - This occurs when fibers from previous production find their way into the current yarn. This is due to the nature of the fiber, collection process, and weaving process. Foreign yarn is common in all natural fiber products. Expansion & Contraction - The hydroscopic nature of natural fibers means they adjust to environmental conditions, they are constantly moving. Loose-lay for 24 hours in the room in which it will be installed, and at the temperature it will typically experience. This allows the fibers to acclimate to their new surroundings. Visible Seam - These are normal, even when seaming is done well. For Indoor Use Only - Natural fiber products should not be used in areas where moisture is present or ventilation is inadequate. Residential Use - All products are recommended for residential use only unless otherwise specified.
