Rug Leathering, Binding or Serging
Leather Binding is the process of binding a leather or vinyl strip under the free edges of the rug in order to provide additional support. This addtional support keeps the edges of the rug from curling inwards and re-enforces the sides to provide protection against wear and tear, simply to help keep them flat on the floor.
We offer eight binding options for your natural fiber rug. We recommend the Wide Canvas Binding for all the weaves and it is standard on all weaves.
