    Swedish plastic rugs???

    Anyone ever hear of these?  A catalogue I get that sells Scandinavian items promotes them as the best -- just shake them out when dirt is tracked in the house.  Anyone heard of them -- particulary those of you in the upper Midwest?  I'm looking for a few more area rugs to put in high-traffic areas and don't want anything slippery on the kitchen & dining area floors.

    We had these at home when I was growing up and they lasted for YEARS.  Had two of them in the bathroom.  My grandma brought them back from Sweden as they were the rage there in the 60s.  Washed them out in the laundry sink, hung them to dry, put them down again.  They were great and literally wore out over the years.  I can still see them in my mind as we had to throw them away in 2001 when we cleaned out mom's house.   Their time had come.

    I just bought 2 of these rugs while I was in Minnesota.  They are fantastic.  The store had several of them on the floor that were several years old and looked new.

    Could you let me know the name of that catalog?  I have Danish furniture & am always interested in seeing Scandinavian household items.
