Yes, polyproplylene is a petroleum-based by-product and yet, it is so safe that it is commonly used as air filters, bandages, and protective netting in hospitals. Unique Carpets are not made with organic ingredients. They are made with 100% wool with synthetic backing and adhesives that are considered safe. They are certainly safer than carpets made with synthetic fibers.If you prefer an all natural carpet with no synthetics, then please look at our Nature's Carpet and EarthWeave brands. These are the only two that use no moth protection, no stain guards, no synthetic dyes, only natural latex and a natural jute backing. They are the purest carpets with no off-gassing of any hazardous air pollutants. These two brands are the only ones we recommend to those with chemical sensitivities.
