Tandus Centiva provides an endless array options featuring durable, high-quality materials that are guaranteed to last a long time. Not only will they resist tearing after years of use, they bring a refined and luxurious tone to any space, effortlessly blending into the room even as interior design styles change over time. Whether it’s placed underneath a coffee table in a residential reading parlor or by a desk in chic city office, the company’s woven area rugs add warmth, comfort and texture to any modern wooden or concrete flooring.

Ordering a rug from Tandus Centiva’s custom online selection process entails following five simple steps. You can select the style and color, the serging or trim color and input the necessary dimensions for your product in the amount of time it takes to pop a bag of popcorn, according to the company. The collection features a unique set of weave options that you can sift through and choose based upon your desired texture.

While the look of the area rug will make a big first impression, it’s the feel of the product that users will remember. From the Pebble Mesh weave to the Plaited look to the tightly-woven Microbraid, each option — all equally as strong as one another — gives users a plush sensation beneath their feet. Each strain of yarn is comprised of solution-dyed nylon that’s both hard wearing in its performance and regal in its look.

Perhaps even more important than the look and feel of an area rug, however, is how it was made. Tandus Centiva is committed to using sustainable materials and processes in the manufacturing of every product they sell. They’ve built an award-winning legacy on quality, performance, design and responsibility.

With the invention of their RS adhesive in 1988, the company learned that applying adhesive during the manufacturing process resulted in faster installation times. Just a few years later, they launched the first closed-loop recycling program in the carpet industry. In 1996, they became the first US manufacturer to offer customizable commercial luxury vinyl tiles flooring. Even in the 21st century, Tandus Centiva has continued to lead the industry in the production of game-changing flooring technologies with the invention of ethos®, an alternative backing system made from 100 percent post-consumer recycled PVB, which comes from the safety film in windshields.
