About Maine Coast Rope Rugs

We are dedicated to the environmentally-friendly mission of making products using only 100% reclaimed lobster float rope. Reclaimed or recycled rope is float rope formally used in lobster traps. Loose in the ocean, it has the potential to trap, maim, and kill marine life, especially the Northern Right Whale. Regulations were put in place that prevent the use of float rope for lobstering in areas 3+ miles from land. As a result, tons of used float rope was destined for the landfills. Rope mats are much easier to make with new rope. The process of using reclaimed rope involves retrieving, sorting by and size, weaving tangled piles of rope, washing, drying and finishing the completed product. But here is why you may want to join us in using 100% reclaimed rope products in your home and business: While being virtually indestructible is not good for landfill, it is an excellent property for a doormat, rug or runner. Our products are durable, water and weather resistant, and indestructible. Because the float rope comes in many different colors this allows us to provide you with a variety of color combinations. Our inventory of available designs changes based on what we buy from the local fishing folks. You are invited to join us in our mission by buying Our Maine-made 100% reclaimed rope products.Read their story
