“BIOVYN™ - is the world’s first commercially produced bio-attributed PVC, made of wood-based tall oil. Crude wood-based tall oil is a residue of the pulp making process used for paper production and a part of responsible wood sourcing. BIOVYN™ is the next generation PVC made using 100% renewable feedstock not competing with the food chain, delivering a reduction in carbon footprint of more than 90 % compared to conventional produced PVC. BIOVYN™ is a highly sustainable product. This new product is a true leader in emerging circular bio economy. BIOVYN™ is a product from our supplier of all our PVC, INOVYN.

Plastic rug for indoor and outdoor use, made in Sweden. Made of Swedish manufactured, certified phthalate free PVC ribbon, woven on traditional looms using wooden shuttles. Reinforced, welded edges for strength and durability. Very practical and easy-to-care-for, hand or machine wash at low temperature 30°C/85F, no spin.
A rug from Pappelina is exclusively woven from the purest plastic ribbons made in Sweden. Our plastic rugs contain no phthalates nor hazardous substance. We guarantee this by using only Swedish plastic raw material sourced from Gislaved Folie AB, a company that is certified according to the international standardizations ISO 9001 and ISO 14001.
The plastic we use is approved for use in the food industry and to produce toys in both the EU and the US. PVC is a plastic that can be melted down and recycled. But since it is not possible to guarantee that recycled plastic is completely non-toxic, as virgin material always is, we choose to manufacture our rugs with new Swedish raw material.
