How to distinguish the types of carpets?

There are many types of carpets. According to different materials, they can be divided into pure wool carpets, blended carpets, chemical fiber carpets, plastic carpets and so on. Let me introduce to you their respective characteristics:

(1) Pure wool carpets Our country's pure wool carpets are made of indigenous sheep wool. It has long fibers, high tensile strength, good elasticity, luster, slightly thicker and strong fibers, and is the best quality raw material for woven carpets in the world. At present, some manufacturers mix domestic sheep wool from our country with imported (such as New Zealand) wool fibers to give full play to the characteristics of imported wool fibers, such as fine fiber and bright luster, and have achieved good results. The weight of pure wool carpet is about 1.6~2.6kg/square meter. It is a high-grade decoration material for the floors of high-class guest rooms, halls, and stages. In recent years, pure wool non-woven carpets have also been produced, which are pure wool carpets made without weaving or weaving methods.

(2) Blended carpets Blended carpets are floor decoration materials made by blending wool fibers and various synthetic fibers. Because the blended carpet contains synthetic fibers, the price is lower and the performance is improved. For example, adding 20% ​​nylon fiber blending to wool fiber can increase the abrasion resistance of the carpet by five times, the decorative performance is no less than that of pure wool carpet, and the price is reduced.

(3) Chemical fiber carpets Chemical fiber carpets are also called synthetic fiber carpets, such as polypropylene chemical fiber carpets, polypropylene chemical fiber carpets, polyvinyl fiber carpets, nylon carpets and so on. It is made by tufting or weaving synthetic fibers into a surface layer, which is then stitched with the bottom layer of linen cloth. Chemical fiber carpet has good abrasion resistance and elasticity, and the price is low. It is suitable for floor decoration of general buildings.

(4) Plastic carpet Plastic carpet is made of polyvinyl chloride resin, plasticizer and other auxiliary materials, which are uniformly mixed and plasticized. It can replace pure wool carpet and chemical fiber carpet. Plastic carpets are soft, colorful, comfortable and durable, not easy to burn, self-extinguishing, and not afraid of getting wet. Plastic carpets are suitable for hotels, shopping malls, stages, residences, etc. Because plastic carpets are resistant to water, they can also be used in bathrooms to prevent slippage.
