Hearth Rugs
When you enjoy a cozy fire, protecting your floors from sparks, embers, and ash is just as important as creating a warm atmosphere. Hearth rugs are designed to provide both safety and style, making them an essential accessory for any fireplace. Our selection of fire resistant hearth rugs combines trusted safety certifications with a wide variety of sizes, shapes, and designs so you can find the perfect fit for your home.
Why Choose Fire Resistant Hearth Rugs?
Ordinary rugs can ignite when exposed to sparks or embers, but a true fireproof hearth rug is specifically designed to resist burning. Every rug in our collection meets the CPSC Standard FF1-70 and DOC-FF-I-70 Federal Surface Flammability requirements, giving you peace of mind when enjoying your fireplace. By placing a rug in front of the hearth, you’re not only protecting your flooring but also reducing the risk of damage and adding a decorative accent to your living space.
Styles and Shapes
We carry two of the most popular shapes, making it easy to find one that works with your fireplace layout:
-
Rectangular Hearth Rugs – A versatile and classic choice, rectangular rugs cover a wider area and are perfect for larger fireplaces. Many homeowners prefer these when they need large hearth rugs or want maximum protection in front of the hearth.
-
Half Round Hearth Rugs – Featuring a curved edge that fits neatly against the fireplace, a half round hearth rug offers a traditional look while still providing plenty of coverage.
Both styles come in different sizes, so whether you need a compact rug for a smaller fireplace or a large one for maximum coverage, there’s a solution available.
Materials and Quality Options
Our fireplace rugs are crafted from durable materials that balance performance and appearance:
-
Polypropylene & Olefin Rugs – Affordable, durable, and stain resistant. These are excellent budget-friendly options that still provide the protection you need.
-
Wool Hearth Rugs – A premium option for homeowners who want the best in both safety and style. Wool is naturally flame-resistant, long-lasting, and offers an elegant appearance that complements traditional and modern fireplaces alike.
Whether you choose synthetic or natural fibers, all of our fire resistant hearth rugs are built to perform and protect.

Safety and Peace of Mind
