Carpets and Rugs are soft floor coverings.
Carpet is a textile soft floor covering that is produced by the permanent orientation of fibers, synthetic or natural, into a substrate.The surface of the carpet is referred to as the pile and may be cut or loop or a mixture of both in nature. Numerous methods of manufacture exist to achieve this end
Various backing systems have been innovated to stabilize the product and may be specific to the carpet's end use. Generally, carpet refers to broadloom goods, available in various manufactured widths, where installation is permanent, yet - ultimately - removable
Carpet offers great value along with the general benefits of security, esthetic beauty, comfort underfoot and insulation factors, sound absorption and even some respiratory health advantages.
Understanding Carpet Construction:
Tufted Tufting is the process of creating textiles, especially carpet, on specialized multi-needle sewing machines. Several hundred needles stitch hundreds of rows of pile yarn tufts through a backing fabric called the primary backing. The needles push yarn through a primary backing fabric, where a loop holds the yarn in place to form a tuft as the needle is removed. The yarn is caught by loopers and held in place for loop-pile carpet or cut by blades for cut-pile carpet.Key steps in the tufting process:
- Yarn comes from cones on creel racks (or from big spools called beams) into the machine.
- The primary backing feeds into the machine.
- Yarn and primary backing come together in the machine.
- Yarn is fed through needles on a needle bar of a tufting machine. Needles repeatedly penetrate or tuft into the primary backing.
- The tufted carpet is mended and inspected.
Woven Woven carpet is created on looms by simultaneously interlacing face yarns and backing yarns into a complete product, thereby eliminating the need for a secondary backing. A small amount of latex-back coating is usually applied for bulk. Principal variations of woven carpet include velvet, Wilton and Axminster.
