Few things associated with synthetic rugs

Synthetic or Wool! Wool or synthetic! Often, while deciding on the right type of rug you get confused. On one hand, there are rugs made from woollen fibres that are strong, dye up vividly can be washed for a more beautiful look that lasts for a longer time. Naturally, one who has no constraints of the budget would be attracted towards them.

But things have changed now; markets are flooded with synthetic counterparts and they are really selling well. With synthetic we mean to say rugs made from polypropylene, polyester, nylon and acrylic used to create an imitation of a wool rug.

With this post, we’ve tried to make our readers aware of a few things that would be really useful for them when they’re going to buy a synthetic rug for them.

Why people are switching towards synthetic rugs?

This question often flocks my mind but the simple solution to this is their inexpensiveness. Yes, they’re really cheaper than wool rugs. Since they’re machine-made there’s no workmanship cost involved with their production.

Whether you know it or not but you’ll be astonished to know that wool rugs have lots of pockets in their construction where dust and grit, could be hide so they look good even when they are dirty. On the other hand, fibres made from olefin, polyester, and acrylic have solid and smooth strands of plastic so there’s no place to hide soil resulting in an uglier looking rug.

The remedy is simple, you need to clean them every month or so. As they are synthetic you can use Hot Water Extraction to clean them, even you can use more aggressive cleaning solutions that can be used on wool.

It’s the property of plastic fibres that they don’t wear well with abrasion so don’t get astonished to discover worn down rugs in commercial buildings that have wall-to-wall carpets in them. It is recommended to use nylon fibres for your wall-to-wall carpeting needs.

Not everything disheartening is related to them, if you are looking for a less expensive means to cover your floor with then you can bring these rugs which are really impressive. Shaggy rugs made from polypropylene are also becoming popular with every passing day. They can give an instant makeover to your room which is in search of a cosy ambience. These fibres are stain-resistant as well as non-shedding so they’ll remain with you as your treasured possession for a longer time.
