Rug Edging and Binding styles.

($8 per edging mt) Sealed & Glued with PVA Glue:

This simple DIY method can easily be done by the customer, all that is needed is PVA glue & an old toothbrush to massage the glue into the sisal or seagrass as it Dries, this will reduce Fraying.

Apply an initial 3~5mm bead of PVA glue to the top outer edges & gently massage the glue into the fibres as it dries, once dry it is a lot safer to cut & shape to any desired shape.

NB: As PVA is drying try not to leave mini pools of white PVA glue, as these will dry shiny.

This is the simplest method to stop the edges fraying.

($16 per edging mt) Standard Sewn Binding Method:

20mm wide Natural Jute binding, with stitched with folded mitred corners.

With this method, we first double seal the cut edges with PVA glue to reduce the likely hood of fraying, before the webbing is Sewn-on.

TURNED & GLUED UNDER EDGES: ($22 per edging mt)

This is our most simple way of making a rug without an edging, where we turn and glue back the edges like a hem, using a special heat proof adhesive, we then glue (recommended) or customer can simply loose-lay an underlay to the underside of the rug, using an underlay gives a flat finish and a softer feel under foot feel.

Depending on the product this method of edging can result in the rug having slightly rounded corners or we can make them rounder if required.

($75 per edging mt) SELF SEWN EDGING:

This is one of our premium style of binding, where we use the same product as the rug for the border, normally showing a 120mm wide finish, but again you can choose the width of edging from 70mm upwards.

Self edging is very elegant and timeless finish, you do not need to use an Underlay if you don't mind the outer raised border, inlaying underlay 2cm back from the inner border edge will create a uniform thickness, as the outer edge rolls down gently to maintain the outer edge thickness.
