Are There Different Types of Carpet?

With thousands of carpet options, it’s always wise to understand the significant distinctions between the different carpet types.

 

Are you an allergy sufferer? Is your space prone to humidity, pet accidents, or frequent footsteps? Paying close attention to your carpet’s fibers, also called pile, will go a long way towards knowing how your carpet will look and function as the years pass.

 

Here's a quick summary of the different types of carpet

 

  • Nylon fibers are solid and synthetic. Made with soft, premium durability, nylon carpets are more expensive but will endure longer through the years. Nylon is not inherently stain-resistant, so usually needs to be treated for protection from blemishes.
  • Polyester fibers are synthetic and naturally stain-repellent towards water-based spills. This is because polyester is a type of plastic. Usually more affordable than nylon, polyester carpets are soft and relatively durable.
  • Triexta is a newer synthetic that is also made from a type of plastic. Triexta carpets are highly durable and soft. They also have inherent stain-fighting abilities.
  • Olefin/Polypropylene is a fade-resistant and budget-friendly carpet fiber. Also, plastic-based, olefin carpets will repel many different stains.
  • Wool is a natural fiber that’s prized for being eco-friendly. It comes from a renewable resource, and wool fibers are biodegradable at the end of their lifespan. While wool carpets are expensive, they have many perks, such as antimicrobial and crush-resistant.

 

Are There Stain-Resistant Carpet Options?

We offer a full range of stain-resistant carpet options and plenty of unique choices like waterproof carpet.

 

While no carpet is 100% stain-proof, today’s stain-resistant technology is incredibly effective. It helps block out spills and prevents liquid from moving into the rug's fibers. This means less worry over the occasional spilled drink or puppy accident.

 

You should still follow your carpet manufacturer’s warranty when cleaning up messes. This typically means wiping up spills as soon as you find them and blotting at stains rather than rubbing them deeper into the carpet’s fibers.

 

Particular carpets have natural stain-fighting properties. For instance, polyester and triexta carpets repel stains that aren’t oil-based. Meanwhile, nylon carpets aren’t naturally stain-resistant, but carpet companies can apply a stain treatment to address this issue.

 

Stain treatments may coat the carpet’s surface or be built into the fibers. Many built-in treatments won’t fade off over time, and some are so effective that you can remove most spills using only water. 

 

What's Trending Now: Patterned Carpet

Don’t feel like you have to go for the “safe” pattern or no pattern when buying carpet.

 

Your home is a reflection of your personality. Carpet comes in various patterns and colors to help you get a customized look.

 

  • Bright, bold colors are making a comeback.
  • Multi-colored carpets and ombre are also becoming more popular.

 

Depending on your overall home outline, any patterned carpet can have the feel of different designs over the years by changing out lamps, fixtures, and accents.

 

Can I Keep My Carpet From Fading?

Investing in new carpet for your home is a big decision; knowing how to take care of the carpet and keep it looking great for years to come will help you make that decision.

 

A few simple tips will help prevent your carpet from fading and make it last. The most common reason for carpet fading is direct sunlight hitting the carpet daily, which can be readily prevented using window treatments

 

Take preventative measures by:

 

  • Closing blinds or curtains when no one is home during the day to help.
  • Opening the curtains when you return home will expose the carpet to less sunlight during the day. This small change can make your carpet last longer.
  • Window treatments with ultraviolet light-blocking technology will considerably prevent the rays from shining on the carpet.

 

Where Can Carpet Be Installed?

While carpet should be avoided in the kitchen and bathroom due to constant humidity and moisture, carpet selections are generally suitable for nearly any other interior setting.

 

A plush, enveloping carpet adds warmth to your master bedroom, while rough-and-tough synthetic carpet might work better in a family room, on the stairs, or in a kids’ room.

 

Commercial-grade carpets are designed to resist even the toughest stains and constant usage, as well as overall moisture-friendly carpets that can shield your subfloors from mildew, moisture, and mold growth.
