This material is widely available on the market for use with stair tread carpeting products. It is completely non-toxic, skid proof, and will not hurt your wood, stone or metal stairs. When removed it does not leave any sticky residue, and can even be re-used. We simply advise replacing the material every couple of years if the tread has been taken up often, as lint can build up on the surface of the mesh.
Take a look at our new VIDEO, created by Dangerous Productions, from North Easton, Massachusetts. This was traded for a set of Alto Steps!
We have several new lines of ALTO steps and rugs in production for 2010. Contact us if you would like to be on our mailing list for new arrivals, or simply to send us feedback.
Made of the finest quality Himalayan wool, our hand-knotted rugs are made by Tibetans in the Kathmandu Valley of Nepal. The wool is rich in lanolin oil, which is important both for the absorbtion of the dyes as well as the plush texture for which Tibetan rugs are famous worldwide. Our manufacturers hand spin their wool and use traditional vegetable dyes or eco-friendly Swiss Ciba colors.
