Santorini: 100% Wool Berber Carpet in Soft Heathered Color-ways
The Santorini Collection by Unique, is a traditional Berber texture that represents one of the best values in wool carpeting. It employs a small level loop construction in soft heather yarns for most residential applications. As a natural and renewable resource made of 100% wool, it outperforms and outlasts nylon, polypropylene and olefin carpets by 2-3 times.

Wool is an all natural bio-based fiber since it is fueled by a renewable resource—grass. Wool is environmentally sound and completely biodegradable.
Wool has been widely used for thousands of years because of its amazing properties that last a long time:
- excellent thermal insulator — keeps you warm in winter and cool in summer
- excellent acoustical insulator — great sound deadening properties
- natural air purifier — attracts air-borne dust particles and common pollutants where they can be harmlessly vacuumed away
- allergy resistant — naturally resistant to dust mites and bacteria
- flame retardant — self-extinguishing and hard to burn
- natural air conditioner — absorbs moisture on humid days and releases it when air is dry
- lowest carbon footprint — wool carpet utilizes 1/3 to 1/6 the energy compared to synthetic fibers.
Unique Carpets utilizes no formaldehyde in any phase of carpet manufacturing. The volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions are well below the emissions of paints, adhesives, wall coverings or plywoods. All of Unique Carpets are GreenGuard Plus certified.
All of the domestically produced Unique Carpets are dyed and/or finished with only recycled water in the dying process. Their dyes are safe, effective and used to add bright vibrant colors that last. Unique also offers a number of carpets that use undyed wool. Their styles are created by blending only natural wool colors such as off-white, light and dark grey, black and various browns.
