Our Southport Outdoor Rugs are machine woven using the latest in power rug looms.  These looms are capable of a variety of intricate stitch patterns as well as up to five colors within the creel configuration.  Combine this technology with outdoor durable and soft to the toes WeatherSmart® yarns and the result is beautiful rugs, with the feel of cotton; that can last in the outdoors.  Whether used on a patio, deck or sunroom, the Southport Outdoor Rugs are the perfect accent for any outdoor setting.

Completely machine woven following our strict design specifications, the Southport Outdoor Rugs begin with a computer generated design file that is transferred to the loom with all desired rug dimensions specified by the size of the loom.  The Southport process is superior to other machine woven constructions in that it allows for five separate yarn colors to be woven into the rug.  The process also includes the addition of fibrillated polyester as the backing to the rug.  Other machine woven rug manufacturers utilize the natural, non-weather resistant fiber, jute, in their backing. Southport Outdoor Rugs are completely 100% weather resistant with no jute in the construction.
