Wool Carpet




Introduction

Those people with a sense of style, and a sense of value, choose wool carpets and rugs. Wool simply looks very beautiful, longer. Natural wool ages gracefully, continually renewing itself and developing a rich glaze as years pass.  While synthetic fibers will become scratched, scarred and dull over time, wool carpets remain vibrant to the eye and supple to the touch.  When your style demands high design and high performance, natural wool will deliver year after year after year.

Advantages of wool carpet

1. Wool fiber is naturally more resilient than nylon.  As a result, wool does not matt or crush like nylon fibers does.

2. Wool has a natural ability to shed water which is an important characteristic considering that 80% of carpet stains are water-based.

3. It resists static electricity.

4. Protein in the wool's constituents gives it excellent natural flame resistance.  Natural wool fiber will not support combustion and is difficult to ignite and is self-extinguishable.

5. The wool fiber is made up of overlapping scales, arranged much like roof shingles, in an upward fashion.  This natural arrangement keeps small particles of dirt near the surface where it can be easily released by vacuuming. 

6. Another benefit of this arrangement aids in wool's ability to resist wear and tear from abrasion.

7. Our line of wools is the whitest wool in the world that offers excellent dyeing characteristics.

8. A completely natural and renewable product.

9. Buying wool carpet advances wool production that benefits local farmers.

Conclusion

The capacity of wool carpets to absorb air contaminants is considerable and long lasting. Wool has always set standards for fine carpets. Wool carpets are usually soft and luxurious. They hold their shape and its fresh look lives longer than any other type of carpet. And they're naturally stain-resistant and flame-retardant, without adding chemical treatments. Because wool carpets tend to be more expensive, some people do not consider them. The irony is that wool is always a better value in the long run. If proper care is taken for, wool carpets can last 50 years or more.
