The Types of Carpet Fibers

Selecting the right carpet for your space requires careful thought. Before diving into your design plans, it's essential to honestly consider your activity levels, specific needs, and expectations. The fibers in your carpet, or carpet pile, greatly influence how your rug feels and performs. Carpet piles fall into two categories: synthetic or natural, each with its own set of advantages and challenges. Wool, nylon, and polyester are popular choices for carpet piles, and they can be easily incorporated into different weave styles like level-loop, Berber, or loop.
 
The five types of carpet fibers are nylon, polyester, triexta, olefin/polypropylene, and wool.
 

• Nylon, a widely utilized synthetic fiber, can undergo treatment to enhance its resistance to stains and fading, resulting in a stable and plush carpet.
• Polyester, a cost-effective alternative to nylon, is gaining durability and boasts liquid-repelling qualities due to its chemical composition.
• Olefin/Polypropylene, a synthetic fiber commonly employed in patterned carpets, is best suited for low-traffic areas to achieve optimal performance.
• Triexta, a naturally stain-resistant synthetic fiber, eliminates the need for additional treatment, making it an ideal choice for families with active lifestyles.
• Wool, a natural material fiber renowned for its softness, is prone to moisture absorption. Therefore, it is recommended to install wool carpets in areas where spills are less likely.

Popular Carpet Styles in North Carolina

Our Wilmington customers enjoy our variety in carpet types. From modern and luxurious to neutral and timeless, we can help you craft the exact aesthetic you want for any space. When shopping for new carpets, consider your current lifestyle, your design goals, the size of your space, and your budget to guide you in selection. We will listen to your goals and preferences to help you find the perfect combination of carpet fiber, texture, density, and style.

Popular carpet styles include the following:

• Plush carpets, also known as velvet due to their velour appearance achieved through high-density construction, offer a formal look with a dense, deep pile; however, they may reveal vacuum marks and footprints in high-traffic areas due to light reflection, which can be mitigated by using delustered (non-shiny) yarns
• Frieze carpets, including Shag and Cable fibers, boast highly twisted yarns for a contemporary look, making them durable and resistant to vacuum marks or footprints in high-traffic areas
• Patterned carpets, formed by a mix of high-cut tufts and lower loops, showcase sculpted patterns, combining toughness and durability for high-traffic areas while adding textural dimension to a room and concealing traffic patterns
• Loop and Cut Loop carpets feature looped and uncut yarns on the surface with variable pile heights, offering strength, soil-hiding capabilities, resistance to marks in high-traffic areas, and suitability for heavy-traffic spaces.
• Texture carpets, also known as "trackless" or "footprint-free," exhibit reduced visibility of footprints and sweeper marks compared to other cut pile constructions, achieved through the use of kinked or curled yarns that diminish light reflectance in high-traffic areas.
