What is Carpet Pile and Why Does It Matter?

 

Natural and synthetic materials are used to create carpet fiber- also known as pile. Some are made to be stain-resistant, whereas others are naturally allergy-friendly. Before purchasing new carpet, consider how you use the space and how durable of a fiber you would need. The most common types of fibers used in carpets include nylon, polyester, triexta, olefin/polypropylene, and wool.

 

• Nylon is the most common and popular carpet fiber option. Many homeowners love nylon fibers because they are attractive, long-lasting, and can be treated to be stain resistant.

• Polyester is less expensive than nylon but feature the same durability. Manufacturing technology continues to improve the quality of polyester and make it comparable to the strength of nylon.

• Triexta is a newer fiber type and is inherently durable. Unlike nylon fibers, it does not need to be treated to be stain resistant. This newer fiber can be compared to nylon in terms of strength.

• Olefin/polypropylene fibers are perfect for decorative rugs and carpets. These carpets should be installed in low-traffic areas around your home, such as formal dining rooms. Olefin/polypropylene fibers are also highly fade resistant.

• Wool is a popular and natural fiber that comes from sheep. Homeowners love wool because it is naturally hypoallergenic, easy to clean, and is a sustainable option.
