What Are Carpet Fibers?

Carpet brings a wide range of colors, textures, and styles, making it your home’s canvas.

 

Your favorite décor and design elements flow naturally with carpet, creating your ideal living space. All carpet is made using synthetic or natural fibers, also called “carpet pile.”

 

• Nylon varies in cost. It’s the most durable synthetic pile, but must be treated to become stain resistant.
• Polyester is an affordable fiber that holds color well and is moderately stain resistant. Range of strength varies.
• Olefin fibers look like wool and are popular in Berber carpets. It’s commonly found in outdoor carpets because it dries quickly.
• Triexta is a newer synthetic fiber that’s naturally stain-resistant. It can be cleaned using just water.
• Wool is soft natural fiber that must be maintained by professionals so that it doesn’t shrink. It is an eco-friendly choice since it’s a renewable resource.

 

What Are the Different Types of Carpet ?

 

There are three main types of carpet today, cut-pile, loop pile, and cut-loop carpets. Each type of carpet has a unique construction.

 

• Cut-pile carpet is constructed by attaching fiber to the backing and then cutting it. The leftover fibers vary in height and twist.
• Loop pile carpet has looped fibers attached to a backing. The loop lengths can vary.
• Cut-loop carpets use both cut and loop pile carpet technologies on one backing, creating unique patterns and designs. 

 

Where Can I  Install Carpet?

Depending on fiber type, carpet can be installed in many spaces of your home.

 

Carpet is best installed in areas like living rooms and bedrooms, because of its softness underfoot. Stain resistant carpet can be installed in hallways and high traffic areas. Pet-proof and waterproof carpets are great for spaces prone to accidents. Kitchens and bathrooms aren’t ideal for carpet due to the frequent moisture exposure.
