How to Order Samples and Place an Order with Curran

Updated

Curran (curranfloor.com) is a natural-fiber and performance-weave flooring company selling custom sisal rugs, carpet, carpet tiles, planks, runners, and wallcovering. The site states you can "explore the collection and order samples," and it publishes an ordering guide plus sizing and installation guides. To order, the practical path is: browse by product type or collection, request samples, use the How to Order and sizing guides to finalize specifications, then place the order — with trade and commercial buyers routed through the Trade Program. Note that sisalcarpet.com now redirects to curranfloor.com, so both addresses lead to the same products and company.

What you can order

Curran organizes products two ways, which matters when you're deciding what to sample.

By type:

  • Custom Area Rugs
  • Carpet
  • Carpet Tiles & Planks
  • Specialty items: Commercial Grade, Stair Runners, Outdoor | Anywhere, Circular, Organic Shapes, Walk-off, Wallcovering, Extra Wide (up to 16'4"), Patterned, Boat Flooring

By material family:

  • Synthetic: SynSisal®, SynSisal® Tile (new), Synthetic Sisal, Recycled PET, Polyester, Woven Vinyl
  • Natural: Sisal, Jute, Seagrass, Wool, Coir, TENCEL™, plus Sisal Blend and Wool Blend

By collection: SynSisal®, SynSisal® Tile, FLEXIBEL™, Terasa, Rols, Jacaranda, EarthSISAL™, The Monasch Collection, Pure Wool, tretford®, Limited Edition, Eco-Friendly, SisalPLUS.

If you're weighing a natural look against durability or moisture concerns, sample across both the Natural and Synthetic groups rather than within one — the site's own framing is "the sisal look, without the worry," which points to SynSisal® as the synthetic alternative to natural sisal.

How to order samples

The site confirms samples are available but does not publish a sample-request form, fee, or shipping detail in the material reviewed here. The reliable steps:

  1. Go to curranfloor.com (sisalcarpet.com redirects here).
  2. Browse by Type, Specialty, or Collections to shortlist candidates.
  3. Use the sample option presented on the site to request the materials you're considering.
  4. If you don't see a sample path for your product, use Contact Us or the Trade Program route to ask directly.

Order samples before committing to a custom rug. Custom Area Rugs are built to your pattern, size, shape, color, and border — those are decisions you want to make against a physical swatch, not a screen.

Placing the order

Curran publishes a How to Order guide under Resources, which is the authoritative sequence for placing an order. Alongside it, the site provides the guides you'll need to finalize specifications:

Decision Curran resource
Overall ordering process How to Order
Rug dimensions What size rug do I need?
Stairs Stair Runner Guide
Full-room installation Wall-to-Wall Guide
High-traffic areas High Traffic Rug Guide
Modular flooring Carpet Tile Installation
Non-rectangular rugs Irregular Shaped & Custom Cut Rug Guide
Performance rating Carpet Classification
Edging/finishing Rug Border Guide
Aftercare Care & Cleaning

Work through the relevant guide before ordering, because custom rugs are specified by pattern, size, shape, color, and border — each of those is a decision point, and the sizing and border guides are what keep a custom order from arriving wrong.

Trade and commercial orders

If you're ordering for a project rather than a home, Curran runs a Trade Program and a Commercial Projects specifications resource, plus International Sales and dedicated support. The site lists products stocked in the UK and products stocked in Europe, which is worth checking before quoting lead times on an international job. Project types the company serves include Retail, Workspaces, Hospitality, Residential, Multifamily, and Maritime.

What to check before you commit

  • Material family first. Natural (sisal, jute, seagrass, wool, coir) and synthetic (SynSisal®, recycled PET, woven vinyl) behave differently in moisture and traffic. Sample both if the space is a hallway, stair, or commercial floor.
  • Width limits. Extra Wide goes up to 16'4" — confirm your room falls within available widths before assuming a seamless wall-to-wall install.
  • Custom rug lead decisions. Pattern, size, shape, color, and border are all specified by you; the Irregular Shaped & Custom Cut Rug Guide covers non-standard outlines.
  • Care requirements. Read Care & Cleaning before ordering natural fibers, so the maintenance expectation is clear up front.

Pricing, sample fees, and account requirements are not stated in the material reviewed here — confirm those with Curran directly through Contact Us or the Trade Program rather than assuming.
