Damaged rug or carpet from bugs / wear

Is your carpet or rug being damaged by bugs ? Is your carpet or rug wearing out ?

What ever fiber you buy to cover your floor it will encounter wear and tear. There will be different effects from local conditions and how you use your home. Ask yourself is your home or work space affected by the following :

- Fumes from traffic / pollution / cooking in the kitchen( do you use alot of oil to cook)

- Are there plants that shed leaves / berries / fruits.

- A bitumen footpath

- Beach sand

- Dusty soil

- Heavy traffic wheel chairs , trolleys , many people 

- Coffee/Tea spills  

any many more.

These are walked onto the carpets and rugs and create challenges to maintain.  The fiber assets needs to be assessed to work out a correct maintenance procedure to reduce soil stains and repairs. If the fibers are not looked after then the fiber life is reduced and inevitably you will be replacing more often.

The Best Carpet in the World

What is the best carpet in the world?

What is it made from ? Wool, Nylon, Polyester, Acrylic, polypropylene, Silk, Art Silk, Blend

Where is it made? Australia, Afghanistan, Armenia, China,India, Pakistan, Persia, Turkey, Spain, England, America, Bulgaria, France, Germany.

What Type? Woven, Needle Felt, Knotted,Tufted, falt weave

How is it dyed? Solution dye, Space Dyed, Stock, dye, Pad Dye, jet Dye, Printing, Beck Dyeing,  

Carpet gets it color through four basic dye methods. The most common is called jet-beck, where the carpet and the dye are place in a vat, and then placed under pressure (kind of like grandma’s pressure cooker). Since the beck is under pressure it does not take as long for the dye to penetrate the fibers. Thus, the term JET beck.

Another method is Kuster dyeing. Kuster dyeing involves running the carpet along a conveyer belt under a row of jets that apply computer controlled color. Kuster methods have to be controlled carefully. If not, the color could drift across the roll and cause a problem known as sidematch shading. This makes seaming the carpet impossible without a visible color break at the seam line.

The third method is called Atmospheric or Beck dyeing. Beck dyeing is simply placing the carpet in a giant vat of hot dye and cooking it for a few hours. This type of dyeing puts the color evenly through out the carpet and is the best way to eliminate sidematch problems. Beck dye carpets cost a little more because they take longer to make.

The fourth methond is solution or yarn dyeing. This is where the fiber is dyed in solution form, then made into yarn, and then made into carpet. This method is the most color fast, (fade resistant), and eliminates sidematch problems altogther. You will see solution dyed carpets most often in commercial carpet, and now in the new Triexta fiber (Smartstrand, a Mohawk trademark). This method of dying is why Mohawk puts a no fade warranty and lifetime stain warranty on their Smartstrand carpets.

What Styles Patterns ? Loop Pile, Patterned Loop, Cut and Loop, Cut Pile, 

Carpet comes in various styles with names like plush, textured and berber. The style of a carpet refers to the way it was made. Alter something in that process and get a carpet with a different look or style. A carpet made with looped fibers, like berber, looks quite different from one made with cut fibers, like plush, while one made from fibers of different lengths has a subtly textured appearance.

Any number of changes can be made or combined to produce a range of looks or styles.

Whats the best colour? Red, Blue, Yellow, Green, White

Within a facility, bright colors with contrasting highlights can differentiate department or team areas.  An accent color on the floor can establish a break between the floor and the wall or stairway, and a printed or tufted pattern carpet can reinforce a corporate identity? 

Color selection of carpet is as diverse as the imagination can provide.  Quiet colors such as neutral earth colors or the blues of sky and water are chosen for a soothing effect or a corporate look, whereas warmer colors, reds, maize, and shades of orange are used for creating a mood of energy and vitality.

Mid-range colors and multicolor blends are best for hiding soil near entrances.  Carpet is being produced to coordinate with other interior finishes such as laminates, upholstery, natural stones, wall coverings and paint, and many carpet manufacturers will produce custom colors and constructions to meet individual specifications for design coordination.

Tips to looking after your carpet and upholstery. Keep it clean and healthy !

TIPS TO LOOK AFTER YOUR CARPET

As you may know, regular carpet cleaning is important to the health of your house. Carpets can hide lots of allergens, pet dander and dirt. By the time the surface begins to look dirty, you know you that you have to deal with a lot of hidden dirt. Here’s what you need to do to clean your carpet in a more effective way.

• Vacuum your carpets at least once a week. Heavy traffic areas may require more frequent vacuuming. Neglecting to vacuum often enough can shorten the life of your carpet as the build up can potentially damage carpet fibers by fraying them. Clean around baseboards and hard to reach areas every couple of weeks.
• Do not be in a hurry when vacuuming, as you might not be able to remove deeply embedded dirt. Make sure to go over each section of carpeting several times, from several different directions using a crisscross pattern and overlapping strokes.
• Sprinkle your carpet with baking soda or a commercial deodorizing product at least 15 minutes before you vacuum.
• Treat spots promptly, but spot test to make sure you are not damaging or fading your carpet’s dye or color when you use a cleaner.
• When applying soil retardants to new carpets, make sure you follow the manufacturers' advice. Use only professional equipment and the recommended application techniques.
