The exquisite outdoor carpet has long been considered the subject of the highest pride of housing owners and the symbol of their well-being and wealth. Over time, the traditional attribute of the interior gave way to the modern "successor" championship - practical, affordable and unpretentious carpet carpet. Having studied the most important characteristics and features of this carpet cover, you can easily make a choice in favor of a high-quality and durable product.

1
The composition of the yarn

Depending on the origin of the raw materials used, it is customary to distinguish between natural, blended and synthetic carpet:

The carpet of natural materials (wool, cotton, flax) is considered the most environmentally friendly and tactful. At the same time, the canvas from organic fiber is much more expensive than analogues made of synthetic threads.
Mixed carpet, containing 10-30% of natural yarn, is recognized as suitable for the arrangement of residential premises. With proper care, a mixed type product will be happy to delight bright colors and a soft pile.
Coating from nylon fiber, despite the democratic cost, steadily to wear and mechanical deformations, does not fade and perfectly "holding" a pile. The only one, like any other synthetics, nylon has a property of accumulating static electricity. However, this problem is easily eliminated with the help of leaving antistatic agents.

Production technology

The modern carpet, intended for solid flooring in residential premises, traditionally consists of the following layers - facial pile, basics and secondary lining. However, even with an identical structure, the carpet flooring may vary depending on the manufacturing technology:

Tafting carpet is specially popular due to a needle-crying method of production. Products of this type are characterized by a characteristic looped pile. They are durable, practical in operation, resistant to moisture and mechanical wear.
The needle carcurlin is a budget alternative to tafting coating. In appearance, such a flooring is somewhat inferior to a needle-crying analogue, but at the same time uses at least demand due to its strength and affordable cost.
Woven carpet is manufactured by the traditional method of carpeting - by delicate machine weaving. Such production is considered the most laborious and expensive, and the products are most reliable and durable.

Characteristic Vorsa

The next criterion to be considered when choosing a household carpet is height and type of pile:

The coating with a short pile (up to 5 mm) is ideal for the arrangement of premises with intense passability - kitchens, corridors and hallways. The medieval canvas (up to 15 mm) is appropriate for flooring in living rooms and children. High-voltage carpet (over 15 mm) is advisable to lay in bedrooms.
Depending on the technique of weaving, the prayer coating may be alone or multi-level. Due to the combination of loops of various volumes and height, the canvas acquires a certain texture, ornament or pattern. The aesthetic plan wins the multi-level carpet, and in practical - his single-level "fellow".

Note! According to experts, it is the carpet creates the most comfortable acoustic climate in a residential premises. Thanks to the tight pile, the carpet flooring is characterized by the best indicators for sound insulation among all varieties of floor coverings.

Method of coloring

The wear resistance of the carpet is largely depends on the method of its staining. Connoisseurs of impeccable quality should pay attention to products produced from the toned threads in advance: neither straight solar rays nor regular cleaning with the use of admissible household chemicals are not terrible. Another thing is when the drawing is applied to the finished carpet with inkjet printing either by means of stencils - the villus of such carpet is quickly losing the original color and brightness.

5
Type of primary base

When choosing carpet also take into account the type of its primary base. Thus, the products on the jooty basis can be removed exclusively by dry cleaning, since natural fiber is distinguished by increased hygroscopicity and is rapidly thinned under the influence of moisture. But the coverage on the rubberized basis and the synthetic jute is absolutely non-condicable in terms of cleaning and perfectly carry periodic wet cleaning.
