Synthetic
rugs provide
homeowners with the freedom
and opportunity to use their
imagination and as a result
are extremely popular and in
high demand. They are as
durable as wool
rugs yet less
expensive. Filled with rich
color and striking pattern,
they can be the difference
between a mediocre and
exceptional living area. The
texture of your rug will
depend on the material.
Synthetic
area rugs can be
made using nylon, polyester
and propylene, each with
varying characteristics. Hard
flooring? Polyester is very
comfortable and will help
soften your hardwood. The
luxurious look and feel of
polyester is less expensive
than wool, immune to abrasion
and will not fade in sunlight.
Kid’s and pets? Polypropylene
is moisture/mildew resistant,
easy to clean and is very
fitting around children and
pets. Its ability to retain
color, even in the sunlight,
will help enlighten any room,
indoors or out. Polypropylene
rugs make up 30% of the
available synthetic rugs
today. They are tightly woven
allowing them to easily retain
their shape. Busy room? Nylon
is the strongest synthetic
material making it a great fit
for the living room, dining
room, kid’s room, basement or
any high-traffic area. It is
color fast, stain resistant
and resembles wool however it
is more cost-effective. Lay a
nylon
rug underneath your
furniture to prevent dents,
marks and imprints in your
carpet. As you can see, a
synthetic rug can be vitally
important to any household. We
