What determines carpet durability?

Carpet is a perfect addition to various spaces, especially those that require comfort, quiet, and stunning colors and visuals to match your d?cor. But what about durability?

The truth is, no matter where you install your flooring, it has to have some level of durability. We?re going to discuss that topic more in today?s post.

Carpet that stands the test of time

The backing material is responsible for the unseen portion of your floor?s quality, offering strength, stability, and sometimes more. If your flooring might be prone to dampness, humidity, or spills, it?s best to consider options that halt the growth of mold, mildew, and bacteria.

It?s also important to know the yarn count and how many tufts of yarn there are per one-inch row in the flooring you?ve chosen. The more stitches you have per inch, the better the quality of your flooring.

Density is another rating that matters in your new carpeting and measures the weight of the pile with the yarn height. There is more to density than meets the eye, and our associates will fill you in on all the details when you arrive.

Additional measures for added durability could be as simple as choosing a product with stain and odor protection added into the fibers when they are manufactured. This protection will never wash or wear off and is suitable for the life of your carpet.
