Choosing the type of carpet

Carpets have different types. Machine-made carpets are usually made of acrylic,
polypropylene and polyester with a combination of these. Each of these types has its advantages.

Regarding durability and maintaining appearance, acrylic is considered the best material. Polypropylene has high color acceptability, so the variety of colors in this type of area rug is wide. Polyester or artificial silk carpets have a variety of colors and designs and less fluff.

Hand woven carpets are also divided into silk and wool. Silk carpets have a more delicate texture and elegance and naturally cost more than wool carpets. Woolen carpets have a lower price and less elegance, but the exceptional beauty of handwoven carpets can also be seen in this type.

The choice of carpet and its material is made according to the budget that we have considered. High-quality carpets are expensive. However, we must note that the carpet is one of the most critical elements of our home. Instead of buying cheap materials that lose their shape after a while, it is better to save more time and buy a carpet that lasts longer. To choose the material, we must pay attention to the environment where we use the carpet.

usually woven with wool threads and natural colors. The designs and patterns of the rug are different from the area rug and are simpler.
