SYOSSET, N.Y. —

Stanton Carpet Corp. has added an outdoor area rug and carpet collection titled "Anywhere" to its offerings.

The collection's eight skus are all made of the company's own branded polypropylene fiber, Royaltron, which is treated with a UV stabilizer so that the patterns are fade-resistant to the sun. These carpets are also resistant to moisture, staining, bacteria, mildew and wear, stated the company.

The area rugs are treated with a special UV-stabilized wide fabric binding or serging.

"We are dedicated to bringing innovative products with decorative styling to the marketplace," said Jonathan Cohen, executive vice president. "Stanton's two new product lines will accomplish just that."

Another new collection the company recently introduced is its Hand Carved area rug and carpet collection, which consists of two styles — Barcelona and Valencia. Barcelona is a three-colored floral trellis available in seven colorways; Valencia is a double trellis design in three colorways. It is made of 100 percent printed tufted nylon with hand-carving in the designs.
