Product Description
Create your own rugs and runners with carpet edging – Easybind
Choose from 38 colours and apply directly to your carpet
- Carpet edging – Easybind is the smart and attractive binding method for finishing the edges of carpet to make attractive rugs and runners. It is easy to apply and cost effective, making it possible to turn remnant carpet into a feature of your home. You can also apply to upholstery and it proves excellent for edging fitted carpets in caravans and boats.
- This carpet binding tape is easy apply, in the home. It’s simple to do and fast.
- Easybind edges the carpet with a rope-styled binding, which is stuck to the reverse of the carpet with a self-adhesive fabric strip (supplied integral to the rope edging). Suitable for all types of backing material.
- The carpet binding prevents frayed edges and is an attractive feature and is an economical way to use up carpet remnants.
- It avoids the need for overlocking or fitting borders to the rug, which tend to be ugly and bulky and involve sending your carpet away to a specialist company – a lengthy process.
- Easybind is ideal for edging straight and curved edges, which means that you can make all shapes of rug, including round, L-shaped, square and rectangular.
- Choose from 30 standard colours plus 8 deluxe colours, including attractive two-tone options.
- The Deluxe Easybind carpet edging tape features a special yarn with a silky sheen to it, for that extra touch of glamour.
Tips on applying your rope carpet edging – Easybind
- Order the correct amount of Easybind carpet edging by first measuring up the linear dimension of the rugs or runners you wish to make. This is the length of the external edge.
- Ask your fitter to make some scatter rugs from the remnant carpet, at the time of laying your carpet or runner.
- Alternatively, you can do-it-yourself. It is best to first watch the video (see Video tab above) and then get started or follow the steps shown in the slider Carpet Edging – the Easybind way.
- An application kit, comprising hot glue gun, cartridges and practise sample, supplies the basic tools you require to start applying easybind.
- In addition, useful tips can be found in our How to Guides on how to attach Easybind.

Excellent product. The video was especially useful, but I recommend also having a look at the series of pictures as well. The video shows a cut off corner, but if you want sharp or internal corner, then the pictures show how this is done. Made a really useful ‘T’ shaped rug for under my desk and it looks great!

Excellent product, have made two rugs from off cuts and they look brilliant. Quick delivery and ordering samples to check colour match meant no worries about wrong colour.
Robert Waddingham (verified owner) –
Incredibly difficult to join ends together. The ends fray and then have to be sewn. Should be sold with the necessary glue.
Carpet Runners (verified owner) –
We do sell the glue gun along with glue if you do not have one; the video and instructions shown here also provide a step by step demo with useful tips on joining.

this is the second lot of binding i have had. It is so easy to do and cost a lot less than getting someone to do it for you
Sue (verified owner) –
The carpet edging was so easy to use and has made a surplus piece of carpet into a lovely rug. People comment of how nice it looks and so unusual to have a rug that matches your carpet. Quite expensive but well worth it.
Elizabeth Crew (verified owner) –
Very pleased, a little bit fiddly but worth the effort. The cat loves his personal piece of carpet.

Steve Fallows (verified owner) –
The carpet fitters that we used for our stairs and landing used this product so I know it looks good. I purchased this to make rugs from the off-cuts and now have 2 excellent rugs. Very easy to install, especially with the video. Top marks Carpet runners
L Nisbet (verified owner) –
Fairly easy to apply although the join was a bit tricky, got tape caught up with glue. Think I would try wrapping co-ordinating thread around ends next time. Not cheapest way of having a rug. I ordered a colour which was not a good match but this was easily returned and replaced with a better match so good customer service. I would consider using again.
Colin Watson (verified owner) –
We just got a new carpet for our Hall and couldn’t find a runner that matched and found this company
Brilliant product – simple to use and looks great, good service and quick to get back to you if there is any issues(not that there was any)
So now not only does my wife refuses to buy rugs – my family are starting to do the same
Martin Leggett (verified owner) –

Ann Bradford (verified owner) –
The answer to our problem of trying to find a large rug! We ended up buying an end-of-roll piece of carpet and using this Easybind to edge it. My husband didn’t have much trouble fitting it (and it gave him an excuse to buy a new glue gun, which he had wanted to do anyway!). Being able to get a sample first, which was later used to practise with, helped with our choice of colour. I think we might have ordered the wrong colour otherwise. When ordered, it arrived quickly. Recommended!
Barry Evans (verified owner) –

David Owen (verified owner) –
Amazing product. Carpeting a motorhome and the original carpets (dash, seat boxes etc.) were all bound. Using Easybind allowed us to do a really professional job and we posted pictures on the Hymer Owners Facebook page which generated a lot of interest and admiration!
Ciaran (verified owner) –
Loved this, – so very easy to use, but make sure you follow the instructions especially when it comes to making the final join. I Hessian backed my carpet cut-off first, used a spray adhesive and then the edging. So the finish is very professional and I’m absolutely delighted.
Zoe (verified owner) –
Value for money, quick delivery and super easy to use, following the helpful video guide. Very happy with the finished rugs.
Roy Cubitt (verified owner) –

This was the first carpet I was binding and I found the video very helpful, I also phoned for advice and found that very helpful, nice to talk to a person. The finished job looked very professional and I’m very pleased with the result
Hilary Houghton (verified owner) –
Made good quality carpet offcuts into very useful rugs. Easy to use. Trickiest part was removing the tape after splicing the ends.
Eddie Barnes (verified owner) –
Easybind edging is very easy to use as the name suggests. I have never bound carpet offcuts before and turned them into mats but now have two 4ft x 2ft a 6ft x 2ft a five ft x 2ft 6inches and a couple of small mats all came out very well. However I do recommend you watch the you tube video to see how to do it. This is a great product.
John Hills (verified owner) –
With some practise and little care offcuts can be transformed into very effective protectors, the edging giving an attractive and professional finish. I could have done with more for £26.25 plus postage.
Jenny Hancox (verified owner) –
Very helpful company. I have used the binding on two different lengths of carpet offcuts. Really good to be able to receive samples of the colours. The binding is easy to use after a short practise. The tutorial video very helpful. I would recommend this product to anyone with spare carpet, for making into useful rugs.
Richard Bettles (verified owner) –
Excellent product, just the job for making some mats from excess carpet we had. Needs a bit of practice to use, first one was OK but the next two were good.
Roberta (verified owner) –
Relatively easy to use considering I am 75 ! Looks fantastic, would certainly recommend it, a great way of utilising off cuts !
Denise (verified owner) –
After being told that carpet was too thick to be whipped found this product online and it was perfect for the job, easy to use and colour just right. Thank you
Mark Burnard (verified owner) –
