Nothing feels better underfoot than a premium soft and warm carpet. Therefore, making a choice for a premium carpet can be difficult, especially when you find yourself trying to narrow down your choices.
Types of Carpets
Carpet types are available as follows:
- Tufted styles
- Berber designs
- Level loop looks
- Twist carpeting
- Multi-level loop designs
- Frieze carpet patterns
- Saxony designs
- Velvet-look carpeting
How Tufted Carpeting Is Made
You can also select from woven carpeting in various weaves. One of the popular choices of the aforementioned styles is tufted carpeting. This type of carpet is relatively fast to manufacture, as it is designed with a backing that has been pre-woven–a backing that has yarns tufted into the design. The yarn, when pushed through the backing, is kept intact by loopers.
The Steps in the Process
The steps taken to make tufted Harrow carpets and rugs are as follows:
- The yarn is guided on racks in the machine.
- The backing for the carpet feeds into the manufacturing equipment.
- The yarn and backing combine and go through the machine.
- The yarn is directed through needles, which tuft into the backing.
- The carpet is mended and evaluated.
- The carpet is rolled into a big roll to prepare for the next phase of the process, or the dyeing of the rug.
For an affordable and sturdy carpet, you may want to review the features of tufted carpeting further. You might also consider a woven rug. Woven carpeting is produced on looms by interlacing backing yarns and face yarns at the same time. When this is done, there is no need to add a secondary backing for the rug.
