We started life selling seagrass matting in 1968. The Seagrass Trading Company boasted a unique and unparalleled range of braided mattings made from many different types of grass. By the early 1970s, we had branched out into floor coverings made from coir fibre.

In 1976 we imported our first floor coverings made from pure sisal fibre . The wow product in that range was a rich and chunky weave in virgin pure white sisal called Bardot because the beautiful Brigitte had used it on her bedroom floor. Today’s fashions are more likely to call for elegant greys. The same weaver continues to be our major European supplier today.
