Carpet Fibers, Which One To Choose And Why?

• Despite what you might think, there is more than
  one type of carpet fiber. How do you know which
  type of fiber is best and what makes them
  different from each other? Is fiber construction
  important?
• For starters, we can divide fibers into two main
  categories
• natural fibers
• synthetic fibers

Tree types of synthetic fiber

• There are three types of synthetic fiber
• polypropylene (also known as olefin)
• polyester and
• nylon.
• As for natural fibers, wool is the most common
  type of fiber. Also, be aware that 99 of the
  rugs available on the market are rugs made of
  synthetic fiber.

1- Synthetic fibers

• There are three types of Synthetic fibers
• Polypropylene
• Nylon
• Polyester

Nylon

• Nylon fiber handmade rugs are often more
  expensive than other types of synthetic fiber.
  Nylon is flexible and offers versatility in
  creating style.
• It has good resilience, abrasion resistance, a
  good memory for twisting the wire, hides dirt
  well and has some resistance to stains.
• Due to the strength of the fiber, the nylon fiber
  mat is a great choice for areas with heavy
  traffic.

6
Polypropylene

• Polypropylene fiber is the most resistant fiber
  in terms of color. Despite prolonged exposure to
  light, sunlight or cleaning chemicals, the color
  will not fade due to its pigmentation process.
  This type of process makes color an integral part
  of the fiber.

• The weakness of polypropylene is its lower
  resistance than other types of synthetic fiber.
• It is often chosen for its resistance to fading
  and is ideal in bedrooms and basements, ie rooms
  with a low circulation rate.

8
Polyester

• Polyester fiber is the ultimate choice when
  looking for stain resistance and softness. It
  also pleases limited budgets and offers a very
  good return for its price.
• To ensure optimum performance, it is best to opt
  for a long-haired polyester fiber with a
  medium-high density. It will give you long-term
  resistance and will keep its appearance better.

2- Natural fibers

• Oldest Wool
• Handmade Bokhara rugs made of wool are the most
  common natural fiber rugs on the market. That
  said, who says natural fiber says price higher
  than synthetic fibers.
• People who opt for a wool rug do so for the chic
  side it provides. Wool is also thicker than
  synthetic fibers.

10

• There are of course other types of natural fiber
  such as sisal, seagrass, jute, bamboo, coir or
  even banana fiber.
• However, they are difficult to find on the
  market, very expensive and difficult to maintain.
