Our hemp place mats add a touch of class at mealtime.

Product Features:

100% hemp.

Handmade in the USA.

From the strongest rope to the finest lace, hemp is the earth's most versatile fiber.

Hemp is also Nature's longest fiber, which means garments last longer than those made with other fabrics.

Hemp is naturally resistant to mildew and UV light. Hemp sometimes feels a little rough at first, but it becomes softer every time you wash it as the fibers relax.

Hemp is extremely efficient from an environmental perspective. Hemp naturally suppresses weeds and enriches the soil it is grown in with nitrogen deposits.

Hemp is grown without herbicides or pesticides and pound for pound hemp plants produce 250% more fiber than cotton. By contrast, non-organic industrial cotton uses more water and more pesticides than any other commercial crop, leaving the soil depleted.

In fact, over one quarter of all agricultural chemicals in the USA are used to grow cotton. The toxic runoff from these chemicals ultimately find their way into our waterways. The modern non-organic industrial cotton plant has been genetically engineered to the point where it is no longer a natural fiber, but rather a plant that is designed to withstand the strains of the chemical pesticides sprayed on it.

Think about that the next time you buy non-organic cotton.

For those of you who are concerned about hemp's unfounded reputation as a drug, rest assured you have nothing to worry about. Neither you or your kids will get high using hemp products. Unlike marijuana, hemp contains only minute (less than 1%) amounts of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the primary psychoactive ingredient in marijuana. In addition, hemp possesses a high percentage of the compound cannabidiol (CBD), which has been shown to block the effects of THC. For these reasons, many botanists have dubbed industrial hemp "anti-marijuana."
Sold individually.

Available in a single size.

Cusp Natural Products was founded in 1996 with the design of three bath items made from hemp yarn... a washcloth, a soap bag and a back scrubber. These products were designed by Lynette Culver with the support of her husband, Richard. It was a one-woman shop for the first year or so, with Lynette doing knitting, finishing, sales and shipping.

Many years later, Cusp has expanded to include a work family of 8, we have designed many new products to add to our company line and we are acting as a distributor for some of the most reputable environmental manufacturers in the country.

All of the products sold by Cusp are proudly manufactured in the United States by American workers.

Each member of our work family receives extensive training; we have strict quality control procedures and a proven history of excellent customer service.

Our goal at Cusp Natural Products is to produce and distribute high quality hemp and other environmentally friendly products.

Cusp products address many of the human family's common problems, including concerns about chemicals in the environment and in the products we use, the safety of our ground water, and the planet's old growth forests.

100% Hemp Hand Woven Throw Rug
Reg. Price: $21.99
People sometimes ask how our green boat gear can be classified as truly "green"? After all, there is no such thing as organic steel, brass, or aluminum.

Like most things on greenboatstuff.com, we try to envision the impact our gear has on the world around us as it is made, used, and ultimately lost or discarded.

In addition, we believe a product you only have to buy once in your lifetime is much greener than a cheaper version you will replace countless times.

With this in mind we offer an assortment of high quality products that are designed for you to pass on to the next generation.

You won't find cheap, disposable stuff here, just the best boat gear we can find that makes a minimal impact on the environment.

In every case, we try to carry boat gear made and finished with materials that do as little harm as possible.

As a result we avoid chrome, nickel and zinc plated items due to the impact the plating process often has on the environment.

The same goes for chemical-based painted items, plastics, nylons and other synthetics.

While natural fibers, wood, aluminum, stainless steel, brass, bronze, and the other materials we prefer to carry are not always entirely earth-friendly, we believe they represent the best choices available at this time.



Whether you are looking for a cockpit, dock, or cabin rug our hand woven hemp throw rugs work great.

Soft, absorbent, tough, and unique looking, our throw rugs are built to last.

Naturally resistant to mold, salt water and sun damage, our rugs are perfect for the boating environment.

You will be enjoying our rugs long after cheap fabric or synthetic rugs begin to fall apart.

Like so much of what we carry, if our throw rug does go into the water unexpectedly you can feel good knowing Mother Nature will break it down without adding any toxins or eternal plastics to the ecosystem.

Our hemp throw rugs are hand made by ECOLUTION, one of the most environmentally responsible companies we know.

Here is their story.



In our 16 years of doing business ECOLUTION® has stood out as a company that has refused to compromise its core values of real sustainability in every step of our manufacturing. Whether it is organic cultivation, chemical free processing, eco-friendly dyes and finishes, or the way that we treat our employees, ECOLUTION® does not allow any negative practices into the chain of production and distribution of our products. During our 16 years we have been exclusively dedicated to our vertically integrated operations in Eastern Europe, making products only from hemp, and hemp flax blends. We have resisted the temptation to move our production to China, a path that most of our competition has followed, because there is little or no way to ensure that Chinese production is being carried out in a socially or environmentally responsible manner. We refuse to sacrifice our values for lower costs.

The ECOLUTION line of 100% hemp products demonstrates our deep commitment to quality, value, and ecology. In all our years of manufacturing we have gained the knowledge of what is essential to produce a premium quality product.

Each of our rugs is the result of hundreds of hours of design and testing.

Eco-Detailing - All of our rugs are made of hemp. Our dedication to maximizing the hemp content in Ecolution rugs is a distinguishing feature of our line.

Leather Free - In keeping with our commitment to creating as little environmental impact as possible, we use no leather or other animal products in our rugs whatsoever.

Quality Commitment - ECOLUTION uses only premium quality 100% hemp fabrics in our rug line. We weave these fabrics in-house to the unwavering quality control standards we have developed in our many years of experience weaving hemp fabrics. All Ecolution fabrics are made from hemp fibers that have been mechanically processed with a chemical-free, environmentally-sound technology based on traditional methods used for hemp processing in Eastern Europe. This ecological processing distinguishes our line, making it superior to the chemically processed short-fiber hemp products from China.

Fiber-Reactive Dyes - We dye all ECOLUTION fabrics with eco-friendly fiber-reactive dyes. Fiber reactive dyes are a good example of how superior quality materials are often more ecological. These dyes are both the best quality and most environmentally-sound man-made dyes available. Because the dye molecules bond directly with the fiber molecules very little residual dye comes out in the wastewater during manufacturing or when washed by the customer. Our dyes contain no heavy metals or other known toxic substances, and they meet all European Union criteria for being an eco-friendly pigment.

Model # ECL-HC1

Each rug measures about 18" x 24".

Available in a natural hemp color for $21.99 each, or get them for $21.00 when you order two or more.
