Hi,
I'm wondering about different non-toxic carpet padding options. I've got 9 rugs of varying size that I want to put padding under. The rugs themselves are made in Nepal. I don't know much about rugs but they're probably about 1/4-1/2 inch thick, very tightly woven, bright color design, with fringe at either end. Mostly runners.
I was asked to look into horse hair - is this commercially available?
How would my options rate cost-wise? We're a non-profit organization, and definitely looking for less expensive options that's rated for medium use.
Thanks so much!
