*Leave one comment per person through the end of Wednesday, June 8, 2011, to be considered for a random giveaway of one Tigressá area rug from Shaw Floors.
Last year Shaw Floors sent us a sample kit of their new Tigressá SoftStyle carpet, which is made with recyclable Nylon 6 and designed for durable, long-life performance.  In celebration of the one year anniversary of the launch, Shaw sent us an 8′ x 10′ area rug called A Touch Too Much, the number one selling style in Tigressá, and gave us an extra to give away today.
Tigressá carries the Green Select label, which is maintained by Carpet One as an indicator that the floor is recyclable, made with recycled content, or made from a natural, sustainable, quickly renewable resource, or all three.
In addition, Tigressá is made with dense, super-strong fibers that show less matting, crushing, and wear, even after considerable use.  Yet the carpet is still soft to the touch.
Tigressá SoftStyle is currently on sale at various outlets including Carpet One and Flooring America, should you want to check it out in person.
*To participate in this giveaway, leave a comment here by midnight MST on Wednesday, June 8, 2011. The winner must provide name, email, address, and phone so that Shaw can arrange to deliver the area rug. One comment per person; use a valid email; available only in the United States. By leaving a comment, you agree to the terms and conditions relating to giveaways on Jetson Green.

UPDATE 2: the giveaway is now over and a winner has been announced in the comments.

Looks soft, like a cuddly blanket. With a carpet this cushy, I may just start sleeping on my floor!Â
looks interesting. Â we’ve been talking about getting another area rug for our living room, too.
Looks like a nice rug!
Using recycled nylon makes this so much easier to enjoy and know we are not contributing to wasteful buying. And I would add that we are also needing a new rug for the livingroom as we have tile and bought a used rug many years ago.
Looks like a good carpet for under the eco yoga mats.
Recycled, Green, the only way to go! Our health and that of Earth depend on it!Â
We had Shaw carpet put down in our office and just love it! Very practical and easy to clean.
I would imagine that this rug has the same quality.Â
cool!
Beautiful and green too!
Sure would like one of those!
Ooh, that does look super soft!!
(My email is in my profile.)
It would be an awesome carpet for my bro’s slow build (as in, pay as he goes) green as possible small house, up in the NC mountains (those floors get cold in the winter!).Â
Looks heavenly!!! After losing my house in a fire…I’d love to begin my new one with a comfy rug!!!!
We have a perfect place for it!
Too much? It could be just right for the 500sf treehouse where my wife and I live and work…
Sweet! What a great looking simple rug. Thanks for the chance!!
I definitely could use a new rug.
a rug without dangerous fumes would be perfect for my new born girl!!
Very nice looking rug, plus it’s good for the earth. Great combination.
Looks nice. I am just getting into going green your website is a big help
wonderful, looks so soft! the rug at our bedside is fraying and curled on the edges so my husband trips, but we never seem to manage to replae it… he’s had it forever! this might just be perfect enough to get him to switch out the old rug for this one!
Looks wonderful! Thank you for the entry!

Looks great! Â Would love to win this since we are going to be uncovering our wood floors soon and will need an area rug in the dining room. Â
Desperately need a new rug! Architect/interior designer couple would love it!
Hi. Â I would like to enter this giveaway. Â

We are trying to make our home an “eco case study” home. We requested a new rug (got rid of the cow hide!!!) for our wedding but did not receive. It would be lovely to win this beautiful rug!
Great style of Tigressá, I will definitely use it on my floor because I like it so much. . .
Best info thanks for sharing
The Tigressá SoftStyle looks like it would hold up well to our 2 year-old’s busy feet, while pleasing the adults in the house who love to entertain.  Recyclable, soft and durable… excellent attributes that we like too!
how does it do with pet stains?
Looks like a great rug with so many positive attributes, why aren’t all carpets made from recylced materials as a standard?
Nice Ruug
I look forward to seeing/feeling this rug in person! I am interested to see the amount of recycled materials used and too see how soft they turn out to be! It’s impressive!
What a great conversation piece for the living room of a recent first-time homebuyer!
Mmmm. I want to sink my toes in it.
Nice! That looks like an excellent rug.
Looks great, crossing fingers!
Justin, congrats, you’re the winner of this area rug. I’ll email you separately to get your contact info to arrange with Shaw to have the rug delivered. Â
Pretty dang cool looking!
I would love to win 🙂

The look plus eco friendly makes this a great rug. We just laid a black eco friendly “leather” floor in our new spec home and the light colour of this carpet would look fantastic on the new floor. My three children would love playing lego on it and they wouldn’t be breathing in any toxic fumes!
Basic need – expanding the trade show booth for our architecture firm. Â We are finishing up our 2nd LEED project and this would be a great way to introduce potential clients to green building.
Oh I just love this rug ! my precious pooch Shadow (a dapple dachshund) loves laying on carpet and so do I, but I do not have a rug at my house…this one would be perfect! 🙂
If I win, I promise to treat it with all the respect, kindness, and loyalty that a piece of carpet deserves.
Who Doesnt want a Fresh New Eco-Friendly RUG?!
that is perfect for the new house i just bought!
Beautiful rug. It would be great if it held up as reported.
[ed. note] removed personal information and will email for shipping details if you win.
Hi Preston, We just got a new rescue puppy and we’re likely going to need a new living room rug soon. 🙂 Hope you are well!
That’s fun! I bet you will need a new living room rug, those dogs can be a handful. Great to hear from you. Â
The room is looking so beautiful with the sofa chair and the rug.. Simple and adorable..
Thanks, Preston for all your hard work in bringing us the latest in design/build/technology.
low impact rugs — inspirational 😛
We’re in need of an area rug for the house we just bought–this would be ideal!
