Soft, quiet and warm, carpet can go over most any surface. There are styles and grades for every lifestyle, decor and pocketbook.

In addition, today's carpet cushions add comfort to any carpet and makes a carpet feel richer and more luxurious. They are also comfortable and many come with two-sided moisture resistance - perfect for busy families with small children and pets.

There are a variety of carpet fibers available.

The type of fiber used, the construction of the cloth, and the color all play a role in the styling, cost, and performance.

Below is a list and description of common carpet fibers.

Common Carpet Fibers

Nylon

The most frequently used carpet fiber, highly desirable due to its exceptional durability, versatility, and reasonable pricing. It can be dyed in an endless variety of colors and made into numerous styles and textures. Nylon is commonly used in residential and commercial applications.

Polyester

Used in residential and a few commercial applications, polyester has good color clarity, colorfastness, and resistance to water-soluble stains. All of Mohawk's staple polyester yarn comes from our state-of-the-art plastic bottle recycling facility. This "food-grade" PET Polyester fiber might be considered to be better quality than "carpet-grade" polyester fiber.

Polypropylene

Also known as Olefin, this fiber resists fading, generates low levels of static electricity, is favorably priced, and can be engineered in outdoor applications. Due to its manufacturing process, polypropylene inherently resists stains. When used in specific carpet constructions, this yarn will perform as well as most resilient fibers.

Wool

The most expensive of the fibers listed here, it is a natural fiber with moderate soil and stain resistance. Durable, luxurious "hand", reduced visible soil due to fine, light-scattering characteristics.
