February 09, 2007 (PRLEAP.COM) Business News
This softness is now available in true works of art for the floor of any
outdoor space. Hand-hooked by craftsmen, the DuraCord® designer rugs
from The HammockSource are available in a variety of motifs to coordinate
with many outdoor settings or to create a unique look on their own.

The DuraCord® Outdoor Rugs have to be felt to be appreciated. The softness is unlike any other outdoor rug on the market today.

“But the attraction does not end there. The performance characteristics of DuraCord® coupled with the custom designer looks, make this rug line a sure winner,” states Douglas Orians, VP Sales for The HammockSource. Each of 4 collections will include multiple designs in 4 sizes. A 9’ round will be coupled with rectangular styles in 4’ x 6’; 5’ x 8’, and 8’ x 10’.

DuraCord® outdoor rugs will boast the same features as the rope and the fabric including:
• Easy Care - Cleaning is as simple as washing briskly with mild soapy water.
• Colorfast - Long exposure to sun will not fade the vibrant colors. It is solution dyed which simply means the fibers cannot fade. The fibers were colored while still in solution form.
• Fast Drying - With a 0.05 percent moisture regain, does not absorb water and therefore dries very fast.
• Stain Resistant - DuraCord® resists staining due to its nonabsorbent properties.
• Abrasion Resistant - Other synthetic yarns do not stand up to any abrasion and are not suited for the wear of outdoor living. DuraCord® lasts under rough use.
• Bleach Resistant - Bleach can be used for cleaning as it does not affect the fabric's color.
• Mildew Resistant - DuraCord® is produced with built in anti-microbial blockers.
• High Strength - This is a truly light weight yarn with heavy -duty strength.
• Environmentally Friendly - DuraCord® offers an environmentally friendly alternative to other synthetic fibers as it requires less energy and water to manufacture.
