HOW CARPET IS MADE

Gorgeous carpet is constructed to perform in your home. 

Carpet Innovation

Well-constructed living carpet will make a tremendous difference in the performance and appearance of your rooms over time. Carpets get their strength and stability from the fibers bound together, that are then twisted into yarn, and then sewn into the backing. The more fibers in each yarn, the stronger and denser and better performing the carpet will be. Cut pile carpet constructions feature yarn tips that are cut to eliminate all loops, which creates more fashion-forward carpets with a softer, thicker pile. When homeowners want the supremely soft feel underfoot, a cut pile construction delivers the richest plush feel.

Carpet Fibers

Carpet fibers will play a major role in the qualities and important traits you want from your carpet. Cotton provides exceptional color clarity and a soft pile but may not offer the highest level of stain resistance. Nylon carpet brings reliable performance for medium activity while remaining resilient, easy to clean, and attractive. Polyester carpets will not offer as wide a range of fashion-forward looks but brings affordability to families that need faster replacement. Innovative Triexta fiber creates a soft, stain-resistant, and durable carpet fiber, that cleans up easily and effectively. The right carpet fiber for your household will handle activity and pets while reducing cleaning time and looking fantastic.

Berber Carpet

These looped carpets have the actual carpet fibers formed in short, thick loops that weave back and forth to create a tight construction. Therefore, low-profile level loop pile carpets and multi-level loop pile carpets are excellent choices for low-maintenance carpets. Available in durable carpet fibers like nylon, wool, or polyester fibers, Berber carpets usually feature multi-colored flecks that help disguise wear-and-tear even better than other carpet. The low-profile construction offers outstanding durability, stain resistance, and spill resistance. When exposed to heavy traffic, Berber carpets offers resiliency, will not get torn, or broadcast footprints.

Carpet Patterns

Mixed-height carpet piles create engaging visuals also serve an active home with valuable properties. Patterned carpets are either cut-and-loop or looped constructions. Cut and loop constructions use a combination of cut and looped yarn to create low-profile patterned effects and variation in surface textures. The distinctive appearance that comes available in multiple colors and many patterns will do a great job of hiding stains and standing up to traffic. Carpet patterns are also valuable for adding dimension and depth within your room design scheme.
