Cut-loop, frieze, Saxony

Carpets in recent years become a common flooring for most offices, however, in private homes it is not so common.: And yet a warm and beautiful coverage can bring into your life that make coming home enjoyable every day, and namely - home comfort. What is in the carpet. Structure of modern carpets are almost always the same. If you look at them in context, we can distinguish the following components: the pile, the primary liner (base) and the secondary lining consisting of a pinning layer and the proper pads, usually made of latex. An important characteristic of the carpet yarn is used for its manufacture. Modern carpeting is made from natural and synthetic fibers. Among the products made from natural materials are the most common pure wool or mixed (containing between 10 and 30% wool). The advantages of carpet wool are excellent elasticity, low moisture permeability and flammability, ease of cleaning. Disadvantages - low wear and high cost. "Lower cost-per-meter natural carpet - 15-20 dollars. To distinguish natural from synthetic carpeting is very simple, a string of wool carpet on fire smolders, and artificial melts. The main types of synthetic fibers used in carpet manufacturing are polyamide (nylon), polypropylene (olefin), polyester and polyacryl. Coating of nylon in their qualities better than the other synthetic materials: they are soft, well keep the pile and they are almost not visible dents from furniture, they are easy to clean and does not fade. Their service life - 10-15 years. Slightly inferior to acrylic nylon and polyester. The latter is cheaper but less durable (will last 5-8 years), hard to the touch, has a typical synthetic shine. Olefin, and though they filled 90% of kovrolinovogo "the Russian market, too, can last five to eight years, but we believe that this material is past its quality does not meet modern requirements. Its main advantage - low price. The replacement of the olefin, now come: terklon and supra, it polipropilennovye fibers that have passed thermal and chemical treatment to increase wear. In appearance this carpet can not be distinguished from sherstennyh coatings and feel it is very soft. Tufted carpet is more expensive. By way of carpet production is divided into three main types: fabric, tufted (stitched pile yarns woven (basis) and Needle (tufted yarn needles are driven into the primary basis). Woven carpet the most durable and expensive, because it makes just as regular rugs . This so-called carpet "on the basis of natural jute." Looks like a base mesh. The tufting method thread a needle injected in the base and fix adhesive composition. The popularity of this technology is due to a variety of designs of carpet: loop (top eyelets), pile (up villi ) and their variants. The loop carpets have very rigid foundation, but due to the fact that the top of his loops, the surface they too tight, which ensures a high wear resistance. To produce this type of carpet used pre-dyed thread, it allows you to create smooth, soothing colors of carpeting as possible suitable for creating interior corridors, offices and classrooms. In addition to single-level loop coverings, there are multi-level, loops are made of varying heights, thereby creating the volumetric image of the surface. looks like a carpet effectively, but the pure complex . Pile Carpet de6litsya on korotkovorsovye (2-3 mm length of the pile), srednevorsovye (3-5 mm), vysokovorsovye (greater than 5 mm). thick carpet with high pile is perfect for bedrooms, smooth - for study, living room or hall. Needle Carpet has a higher wear resistance than the tufted or woven. Yarns are stacked on a primary basis, and then pierce it with needles, then joins an additional base (usually rubber). This coverage, lint-free and apparently felt like. Such a carpet is used on the premises with very heavy traffic in the West almost all offices and public buildings are laid for them. Its main advantages cheapness and excellent acoustic properties, so it is used in theaters and cinemas. This is a complex simple carpet. The simplest form of a carpet - a single-level loop. Loop Pile do not cut and have the same height. These carpets have found the most widely used in offices, as opposed to a loop is best to wear, but with enough weight pile (at least 500 g/m2) are easy to clean carpets. However, loop carpets must be cleaned regularly, so as dirt, penetrated deep into the pile, it is very difficult to remove. Loops of varying heights can form a sculptural figure of a multi-level loop carpet. These carpets look interesting. scrollbar Loop carpets are made from yarns of several colors, in addition, have different heights of pile. Due to this, get drawing (sometimes rather complex) and the sculptural effect. Often carpets scroll slightly trimmed to make them look like more expensive carpets with split hair. These carpets are nice looking and relatively inexpensive, but behind them is more difficult to maintain. Velours - a carpet with a short (up to 8 mm ) split hair. Vorce after cutting carpet fluffs and creates a uniform, smooth, like a velvet surface. VELOUR can be very soft, silky (home), and can be tough and resilient (for office). This is perhaps the easiest to withdrawal form the carpet. However, velours, especially a plain, clearly visible traces of the steps and dirt. Hide help them figure. Saxony is made of twisted yarn. Pile carpet hair cut for a smooth surface which, in contrast to the suede, has a characteristic "grainy" look . By twisting the pile can be higher (up to 15 mm). Saxony is valued for its elegance and comfort. Evrosaksoni (Pile height 7-8 mm, very thin and strongly twisted pile, with a mass pile of more than 1 kg/m2), one of the the most expensive carpets. Shag-a kind Saxony is very high and rough hair. Pile height of the carpet can reach 30-40 mm. These rugs were very popular 20 years ago, is now the fashion for them coming back. Frise is made of highly twisted yarns. In finished carpet pile is not shorn, and has "curly" look. inhomogeneity structure of pile carpets fascia helps to hide the traces of the steps and dirt, however, these carpets are a little harder to maintain. If one loop carpet high cut and low left uncut, you get a combined pile. This kind of carpet is called the cut-loop. Uncut loops create a sculptured pattern and, moreover, help to hide the traces of the steps and dirt. color - not the last deal. A lot depends on the method of dyeing yarn. We present these methods as reducing the price and durability paint . The best way when the carpet woven from threads made of colored synthetic mass. The second way - this painting is finished yarn. The third way is when the printed image is applied to the stencil on a ready-made carpet fabric, this way of painting less durable, and faster all burned or erased. Identify it very easy - the villi in this technology is not painted to the ground. Keep in mind: the higher the density of the carpet, the better! stronger villi adjacent to each other, the harder they hurting. It is clear that such carpeting is less than wiped clean and less shiny. But he is more expensive. How to put carpet? substrate is placed under the carpet for better sound insulation and to increase the heat, which is especially important if the carpet stela in the concrete floor. When laying carpet on the parquet, carpet without backing for its hard basis can scratch the parquet lacquer. So save on the substrate is not necessary. Among the countries leading carpet manufacturers took the products of German, Belgian, Dutch and American firms. The price depends primarily on the thickness of the coating and the material used. Any carpet better to lay on a completely flat floor - lined with sheets of hardboard or plywood. Gluing on the entire surface is not necessary. But you can carefully glue (ordinary PVA glue or adhesive for the Polish environmental coatings) region under the baseboards and door area. We'll step through the three most common ways of laying carpet. Without sticking to the floor. This method is good in small spaces by using a single sheet cover. expand coverage so that it sticks out above plinth at 5-10 cm and laminated with clip from the middle in all directions (to walls). knife cut corners meet in the form of a letter V, and then cut along the baseboards. Gluing no connection. Expand coverage and cut, as in the previous case. Fold the middle and with a spatula, apply glue to the open part of the floor. A few minutes later lower on the floor bent part of the coating. Smooth roller in the direction from the middle to the side walls. Also make and the other half of the sheet. simultaneous connections. Spread and cut the carpet, as in previous cases, but the sheets are covered with overlapping Lay on the 3-5cm. Expand the first sheet 2 / 3 of the width and apply glue to the public portion. Dip coating and glue, as in previous cases. Do the same with the second sheet. Lift the edges and apply glue to the floor. C using a ruler, cut together the two edges of the material. Put both hand and flatten both sides. There is another way to laying carpet - stretching, but it can be done only by professionals. When stretching, the property of elasticity, inherent in all textile coverings. Carpets laid on the fortified walls along the narrow rails with two rows of nails driven into a corner and pulled by using special tools. Under the cover is laid felt, which adds a carpet effect "softness." Please note that pasting coating with the base of natural jute, must be very careful with the dosage of glue: going through a natural basis, the excess glue forever be spoil pile. With regard to loop carpeting used in the field "all terrain", it is best to stick to the whole area. In the kitchen, it can simply be laid on a flat floor like an ordinary carpet. To the floor was a warm bed under a sheet of carpet polyurethane foam or felt. But a layer of extra strips should not exceed 0.5 mm. With regard to the care of carpet, it all depends on the basis of the coating. Carpets on jute or glue-based clean only "dry" vacuum cleaner. Coatings foam rubber, latex-based or synthetic jute can be removed by washing the vacuum cleaner, water should be collected at the same time very carefully. Water-based is not afraid, but a long bristle poorly ventilated and damp feeling remains. But it's better if you still do without a "wet" cleaning. A more complete information on the firms producers, by type of carpet colors, you can get from a professional designer who can help you choose the best variant for you.
