The advantages of Carpet
There are many advantages of carpet as a floor covering including; Carpet cushioned surface acts as a sound absorber, it is economical to install, and carpets provide a warm floor surface during the cold season. Unlike hard flooring products, carpets are slip-resistant and provide a softer surface to land on should a fall occur. Lastly, the majority of carpets are composed of synthetic carpet fibers which makes them a lot easier to clean than carpets of yesteryear.The use of synthetic material in carpets makes the job of cleaning them a lot easier for both individuals and specialized carpet cleaning companies such as ProClean Carpet Cleaning Derry NH .
Carpet Fibers
NylonCarpets are made from carpet fibers of which there are four general types. Nylon is the dominant fiber in the residential carpeting industry. Nylon is a synthetic fiber that is renowned for its durability, ease of cleaning, low maintenance, and resiliency.
Nylon was invented in 1935 by a scientist named Wallace Hume Carothers who was the head of research at the Dupont organization. Initially, it was used to make women’s stockings, toothbrushes, and fishing lines and it wasn’t until 1950 that Dupont began producing Nylon for carpeting. Nylon carpet fiber underwent extensive testing for three years, and then in 1959 Dupont released the BCF (Bulk Continuous Filament) Nylon which was the first truly synthetic fiber made specifically for the carpeting industry.
When cleaning Nylon carpets companies like ProClean Carpet Cleaning Derry NH will utilize the hot water extraction cleaning method which rejuvenates the hydrogen molecule contained in nylon carpet fibers. The hydrogen molecule is reactivated by the heat from the cleaning process and this then rejuvenates the carpet fiber giving the carpet the “as-new” look.
Nylon carpets are often treated with a stain resistance chemical. The most stain-resistant nylon is called solution-dyed nylon where the color is locked into the carpet fibers during the production process. This means the color can last longer and the carpet is more stain-resistant and therefore easier to clean by cleaning professionals such as ProClean Carpet Cleaning Derry NH
Polyester

Polyester carpets are comparatively cheap to install when compared to other types of carpets and polyester carpets offer a greater range of colors and greater color vibrancy. Polyester dye’s well which means polyester carpets are more resistant to fading than other types of carpeting. Being synthetic material means that Polyester is also more stain-resistant and faster drying than other types of carpet.
