The quality of the carpet is significantly influenced by manufacturing methods, which are:
Woven method. Such products are made in the same way as an ordinary carpet. And this is a rather long and expensive process. The woven option is the strongest and most expensive. It is made on a natural jute base.
tufting method. In the production of this coating, the needle thread is riveted in the base and fixed with glue. This type of carpet is often referred to as “adhesive-based”.
Needle-punched method. A synthetic solution (polypropylene or polyamide) is rolled out in a thin layer and “whipped” with needles. It turns out a durable and cheap material that is used for offices, cinemas, theaters, because it has sound-absorbing properties. Can be used in apartments with increased noise level.
The price of products is determined not only by the type of fiber used in the manufacture and method, but also by the coloring of the threads.
