Ok you could say they have maybe gone over the top with their stands, and maybe have missed the mark with some ranges put they still have many great ranges that seem to sell well. When the Lifestyle floor was launched, I for one was not giving it much hope and felt it was not going to be around long. but they have done well and to be honest the stands do look great in our shop.<br />

It looks like wool, feels like wool but is polypropylene and there for bleach cleanable.<br />
Many customers are turned off by polypropylene because it can sometimes give a slight Shinney appearance (after all it is plastic). But Wooltex changes this and gives you a more natural wool look.<br />
Time will tell but from what we have seen so far Wooltex looks to be a big hit for many and could prove to make a big change in the world of carpet and flooring. I<br />

It goes on the floor; it keeps your feet warm and feels nice. That’s about it, isn’t it? Well, no, not really. You see, there are many different types of carpets (wool, nylon, polyester,…) all of which have been developed over time, some going way back to six thousand years BC. I’ll spare you the history lesson, only to say we’ve known about the benefits of laying carpets on our floors for many thousands of years.<br />
These days, we can choose from a multitude of materials, and a whole rainbow of colours and patterns. Computers, robots and graphics designers can weave intricate patterns in minutes using CAD, and you can even have your own designed weaved into carpet if you wish. That’s technology for you.<br />
So what are all these new fancy carpets made of? Well, a variety of materials as it happens, some more expensive and better than others, but all of them make good comfortable carpets for residential use, or for commercial carpets or contract carpets.<br />
The most popular is probably nylon. It is fairly inexpensive, has excellent wear characteristics, and can be coloured and printed on easily. Nylon carpets are probably the most common on the market today, but a disadvantage is they tend to stain easily because they possess dye sites on the fibres. The cost of nylon tends to fluctuate with the price of oil, as it is a petroleum-based product.<br />
Another type of carpet is polyester, or otherwise known as polyethylene terephthalate. Polyester unlike nylon does not have dye sites, so it is more stain-resistant. However, it is not as soft and luxurious as most other types of carpet, and is typically used for commercial carpets or mid to low prices carpets.<br />
An inexpensive material is polypropylene. This is mostly used because it is inexpensive. On the down side it is difficult to dye and does not wear as well as nylon. Makers of polypropylene carpets compensate by making carpets with smaller loops, and this makes them wear very well, making them suitable for areas with heavy traffic. You can also make outdoor grass carpets with polypropylene.<br />
Acrylic carpets came onto the market in the 1940’s and have come a long way since their first introduction. Rather than using strands that degraded easily, they have been developed to be harder wearing and stronger. Acrylic is usually colour-fast, and they have the feeling of wool, making it an ideal material for making rugs.<br />
Finally, wool carpets are best known for their luxurious feel, and are used almost entirely on the domestic market. Wool is extremely durable, and luckily there is no shortage of sheep willing to give up their fleeces, so it’s quite abundant. Even so, it is fairly expensive compared to the other types of carpet, especially when combined with synthetic fibres to make it stronger and more durable. Most wool carpets today are a mixture of 80% wool and 20% synthetic fibre.</div>Gareth D Cookhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04234181738121736950noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2201691114500389132.post-44768003042473576042011-11-16T06:57:00.000-08:002011-11-16T06:57:18.941-08:00christmas is comming...<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiTA5YvNb2Fo4DfAPZWbrN9_Ow62F2q6d0jkhPYqyA-Go4K8Ewq9ZNoBqUggfZvVkX22liIL2f-3_fT2YRM7x3O6gOBvCe2DQQAn0QMa4SZM7sY_kOiX1DwPMvc28zMF0CGNGnapg-dNT4/s1600/6826-Clipart-Picture-Of-A-Green-Carpet-Mascot-Cartoon-Character-With-A-Snowman-On-Christmas.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="290" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiTA5YvNb2Fo4DfAPZWbrN9_Ow62F2q6d0jkhPYqyA-Go4K8Ewq9ZNoBqUggfZvVkX22liIL2f-3_fT2YRM7x3O6gOBvCe2DQQAn0QMa4SZM7sY_kOiX1DwPMvc28zMF0CGNGnapg-dNT4/s320/6826-Clipart-Picture-Of-A-Green-Carpet-Mascot-Cartoon-Character-With-A-Snowman-On-Christmas.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

Normally, we don’t see loads of innovation in the carpet industry — how much can you really do with a bunch of thread that exists only to be stepped on? — but Holland’s Lama Concept has managed to produce something pretty fresh: Cell+LED, a carpet that doubles as a customizable wayfinding system. </div><div class="entry"> </div><div class="entry" style="text-align: center;"><img alt="cell led carpet 02 Cell LED Carpet by Lama Concept" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-658" height="300" src="http://retaildesignblog.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/cell-led-carpet-02.jpg" title="Cell LED Carpet by Lama Concept materials" width="400" /></div><div class="entry"> </div><div class="entry">That probably doesn’t sound that impressive, since folks are used to seeing illuminated carpeting just about everywhere.

I for one don't. I think the only time people ever think about carpet underlay is when you are laying new carpet. The exception to this would obviously be if you work in the carpet business!<br />
So, what do we non carpet workers know about underlay? If you are anything like I was a couple of weeks ago, then probably not much. Though once you've been thrust into the depths of home renovation, you'll most likely get a fair understanding like I have.<br />
So I'm going to share some of my new found carpet padding (that's another word for it) knowledge with the rest of you folks.<br />
<strong>First and foremost; what is carpet underlay?</strong> <br />
Well you know how when you're walking on your carpet at home it feels kind of spongy? That spongy feeling is the carpet underlay! It's basically a layer of material (we'll get into what the material is made of later), that is laid directly onto your floor, regardless of whether it is a concrete slab or wooden floorboards, and then your actual carpet is laid over top.<br />
<strong>Why do we need carpet underlay?</strong> <br />
There are a few good reasons why every home should have carpet cushioning (yes, it's <i>another</i> word for it). I'll tell you about the most important ones.<br />
<strong>Insulation</strong> <br />
By adding the extra layer to your floors you not only help trap the heat in your home but you also help dull those sound waves so your rooms aren't so noisy. So you get two types of insulation with the same piece of underlay, heat and sound insulation!<br />
<strong>Comfort</strong> <br />
For some people this isn't a very important factor, but for me it is a major bonus! I'm the sort of girl who spends quite a lot of time on the floor. I like lying on the floor in the lounge room in front of the fire place, or doing yoga in front of the TV. So spongy carpet is definitely a good thing!<br />
Have you ever tried lying on the floor in your office at work? I'm a little ashamed to say I have... it's not what you think; I was trying to stretch my back not take a sneaky nap. But you'll notice a difference in the comfort levels. The carpeted floor at work is hard, that's because most work places don't have carpet underlay, or if they do, it's that industrial grade stuff which is useless for lying on!<br />
<strong>Carpet Protection</strong> <br />
Yes, even though it's underneath your carpet, it is actually protecting it. You see that spongy-ness that makes your carpets so comfy to lay on actually serves a more practical purpose. It allows your carpet to spring back when weight is applied; weight such as people walking all over it and furniture placed on top of it.<br />
Have you noticed when you move your furniture around there are always indentations where it used to sit? Well your carpet underlay will help to push out those dents and bring your carpet back to its usually flat state.<br />
So there you have it, three pretty great reasons to use carpet underlay! </div></div>Gareth D Cookhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04234181738121736950noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2201691114500389132.post-9882474710730698902011-07-14T12:35:00.000-07:002011-07-14T12:35:32.286-07:00On Line ShopWhy not visit our online shop where you can look at many range of Carpet and Vinyl aswell as view many differnt flooring ranges including Laminate Woods and Rugs.<br />

<br />
By and large, the more luxurious the surface, the more care it will need. Shorter pile usually wears better than long pile carpet but is not as luxurious. It all comes down to personal taste and room usage. The most common styles are:<br />
<br />
<strong>Twist piles</strong> - These have a coarse, rugged finish<br />
<br />
<strong>Velvet pile</strong> - Have a smooth luxurious appearance, rather like suede.<br />
<br />
On a like for like basis the only difference between these is aesthetic.<br />
<br />
<strong>Loop pile</strong> - These replicate the look of natural flooring such as coir and sisal. A tip here is that cats and anything with long claws are not a good idea with loop pile carpet. <br />
<br />
<strong>Saxony</strong> - Has a deep pile with a pronounced sensuous feel. Popular in bedrooms they do flatten so are not recommended in heavy traffic areas<br />
<br />
<strong>Patterned carpet</strong> - Usually has a smooth velvet surface with excellent appearance retention</div></div>Gareth D Cookhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04234181738121736950noreply@blogger.com0
