CYCLO - handmade rugs from Belgium

The humble inner tube has been given a second life following it’s enduring service in the world’s most popular transportation mode, the bicycle. Men and women collect from their local repair shops the worn tubes which would otherwise end up in land fill or slum neighbourhoods. These tubes are slit and crafted into a woven structure - CYCLO rug. No chemicals nor finishing products are used in the manufacturing process resulting in a truly honest and eco-responsible recycled product. Silent witnesses being the tube size markings still visible from the previous owner, left there to tell it’s lifetime story. The sturdy rug is also suitable for outdoor use.
