Carpet is the most comfortable floor covering thanks to its capacity to retain heat and to its sweetness. Left aside in recent years, carpet resurfaces today. But carpets are not often particularly green products: made of synthetic fibers, they retain dust and favor bacteria proliferation.

There are nowadays green carpets made of natural materials such as she-goat hair, recycled paper or even corn. Carpet is also a good thermal insulator and it efficiently stops noise (which is very convenient for someone who lives in a flat). Finally, it brings a certain safety thanks to its anti-skid aspect.

Prices are commonly rather high. One has to count around 50 Euros the square meter for the animal woolen carpet but can also find some around 200 Euros the square meter!
