Choose your carpet fiber
Understanding fiber is the key to understanding carpet. It breaks down easily into two major categories, synthetic carpet fibers and natural. Natural carpet fibers are derived from animal or vegetable sources that are processed further to make yarn. Cotton and jute are the primary vegetable-based fibers while wool is the most popular of the animal-based variety. Wool carpet fiber is expensive due to high demand and somewhat limited supply and is used mostly for rugs and higher-end carpets.
Synthetic fibers are produced chemically via petroleum products and include:
Nylon carpet—the work horse of carpet, comprises 75% of the industry, is resilient, cleanable and easiest to dye and style
Polyester carpet—softer and more accepting of brighter dyes, it's used only residentially due to susceptibility to matting and crushing
Polypropolene carpet fibers—extremely durable and unable to absorb moisture, it's inexpensive and used primarily for commercial installations inside and out
Find your carpet style
Texture: Create a less formal look with the smooth, level finish of twisted yarns. The textured surface helps mask footprints, so it’s perfect for high traffic zones and casual areas. Popular examples of carpet in this category are Saxony and Plush.
Loop: Create texture with uneven loops or choose uncut level loops for high-traffic areas. In the popular Berber styles, carpet is constructed having fiber loops of the same height with flecks of additional color accenting the main hue.
Pattern: Visible patterns in carpet are created with color, different densities of yarn and pile heights, and by finishing techniques such as carving. A pattern may be achieved by tufting a design into the carpet or applying it with color dyes.
Twist: Go for a soft, comfortable, casual look with this longer cut pile, also known as Frieze. This carpet is manufactured with yarn twisted so tightly it curls when cut. This curling can either be paired with a flowing, "windswept" look, or a dense, tightly packed construction, to yield two very different
beautiful looks.
