STEN is a rug that effortlessly captures the essence of retro style, making it a strong contender to become a Pappelina classic. Its unique pattern features round shapes and a large-scale motif, creating a bold and eye-catching design that adds a touch of nostalgia to any space. The name "STEN" was inspired by the shape of the pattern itself. In Swedish, "STEN" means stone, which perfectly reflects the rug's distinctive and solid design. Just like stones are known for their durability and timeless appeal, STEN brings a sense of longevity and enduring style to your home. With STEN, you can enjoy the beauty of a classic pattern reimagined for the modern world. Non-absorbent hygienic rug that does not hold dust, making it ideal for people with allergies.
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.

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.
