WOOL CARPET
- Wool fiber is naturally more resilient than nylon. As a result, wool will not matt or crush like nylon fibers will.
- Wool has a natural ability to shed water; an important characteristic considering that 80% of carpet stains are
water-based.
- Resists static electricity.
- Protein in the wool’s constituents gives it excellent natural flame resistance. Natural wool fiber will not support combustion and is difficult to ignite and is self-extinguishing.
- The wool fiber is made up of overlapping scales, arranged much like roof shingles, in an upward fashion. This natural arrangement keeps small particles of dirt near the surface where it can be easily released by vacuuming.
- Another benefit of this arrangement aids in wool's ability to resist wear and tear from abrasion.
- A completely natural and renewable product.
