  • Carpet a Carpet Is a Textile Floor Covering Consisting of an Upper
    ... Carpet A carpet is a textile floor covering consisting of an upper layer of "pile" attached to a backing. The pile is generally either made from wool or a man made fibre such aspolypropylene, nylon or polyester and usually consists of twisted tufts which are often heat- treated to maintain their structure. Etymology and usage The widespread popularity of carpets has inspired stories of the magic carpet, a legendary carpet that can be used to transport people who are on it instantaneously or quickly to their destination. The term carpet comes from Old French carpite, from Ol d Italian carpita, "carpire" meaning to pluck.[1][2] The term "carpet" is often used interchangeably with the term "rug". ... Some define a carpet as stretching from wall to wall.[3] Another definition treats rugs as of lower quality or of smaller size, with carpets quite often having finished ends. A third common definition is that a carpet is permanently fixed in place while a rug is simply laid out on the floor. Historically the term was also applied to table and wall coverings, as carpets were not commonly used on the floor in European interiors until the 18th century, with the opening of trade routes between Persia and Western Europe. Carpet types Swatches of carpet of tufted construction Drying carpets in a village factory (Ourika Valley, Morocco) Woven The carpet is produced on a loom quite similar to woven fabric. The pile can be plush or Berber. Plush carpet is a cut pile and Berber carpet is a loop pile. There are new styles of carpet combining the two styles called cut and loop carpeting.
