Classification of Carpet Types in Terms of Manufacturing Method, Install Way, Texture, Usage & Raw Material

There are many ways to classify commercial carpets and residential carpets, from different manufacturing methods to raw materials, so there are many names with unclear classification boundaries and repeated mixed-use, the following are several commonly used classification methods:

1 - Caprtype Types According to The Classification of Manufacturing Methods

• 1. Hand-woven carpet

• 1.1 Twist the carpet

• 1.2 Pull the twisting carpet

• 2. Mechanism carpet

• 2.1 Tufted carpets

• 2.1.1 Lap velvet carpets

• 2.1.2 Cut down carpets

• 2.2 Woven carpets

• 2.2.1 Wilden carpets

• 2.2.2 Axminster carpets

• 2.3 Needle-punched carpets

• 2.4 Weaving carpets

• 2.5 Knitted carpets

• 2.6 Flocked carpets

• 2.7 Other mechanisms for carpeting

2 - Caprtype Types According To the Product Form Classification

• 1. Carpet Rolls

• 2. Carpet Tiles

• 3. Patchwork blanket

3 - Caprtype Types According To the Texture Classification

• 1. Plush carpet

It is the most common type of cut fleece carpet, and the length of the fleece is 5 ~ 10 m

The blanket surface can be covered with broken piles, flat and uniform.

• 2. Velvet carpet

The suede is about 5 m in length and the blanket suede is dense, producing a velvety effect.

• 3. Saxon carpet

The length of the pile is 15 m

Left and right, the fleece yarn is processed by twisting heat, and the fleece produces an effect similar to optical fiber, with a plump texture.

• 4. Strong twisting of carpets

The twisting degree of the fleece yarn is large,

The blanket surface produces a hard touch and strong elasticity. The direction of the fleece is uncertain, so the blanket surface produces a special mood and personality.

• 5. Plush carpet

The length of the pile head is more than 25 m, which is both thick and long, and the blanket surface is thick and heavy, showing an elegant effect.

• 6. Flat lap velvet carpet

The pile head is in a circle, and the circle height is consistent and neat,

It has moderate firmness and smoothness to the fleece of the cut velvet, and it feels comfortable to walk.

• 7. High and low circle fleece carpet (including multi-layer high and low ring fleece)

The change in the length of the fleece fed by the fleece yarn produces the height of the fleece ring,

The carpet surface has undulating levels, some form geometric patterns, and the carpet has a three-dimensional feeling.

• 8. Cut/lap velvet carpet (including flat cut/lap carpet)

In general, the height of the cut fleece part of the carpet exceeds the height of the circle fleece, and the fleece of the circle is not harmed when trimming and leveling the fleece head.

The two pile mixes form a geometric pattern on the blanket surface, with a plain jacquard effect. The cutting technology content of flat cutting/circle carpet is also relatively high

• 9. Flat carpet

That is, there is no upright fleece on the carpet blanket,

As a result of a flat carpet, part of the needle-punched carpet is drawn on the blanket with a prickly roller, which produces the texture of the hairy carpet.

4 - Caprtype Types According To the Use of Classification

It can be generally divided into four categories: family residence, business and public places, transportation and sports.

• 1. For family residence

Refers to the living room, dining room, hallway, bathroom non-slip, kitchen mat, door mat, etc.,

The general walking frequency is not high, and more attention is paid to its functionality.

• 2. Commercial and public places

These places generally have a high frequency of trampling and walking,

There are requirements for the wear resistance and elasticity restoration of carpets, as well as door mats that are laid in front of doors in public places and have dust removal functions. There is also a contract called the Contract

carpet) means that the carpet has been arranged at the stage of architectural design and has a contract to contract the paving

Engineering. In fact, both homes and businesses have the above situation, but most of them refer to commercial carpets.

• 3. For vehicles, ships, and aviation

These carpets often have special use requirements:

For example, the carpet used in the aisle of American Airlines aircraft must be woven ring pile carpet (this carpet is rarely used in other occasions). There are also high requirements in terms of performance such as flame retardant and antistatic.

4. For use in sports venues

It is mainly based on needle-punched carpets and artificial lawns.

5 - Caprtype Types According To the Fiber Raw Materials Used in Velvet Yarn Classification

Typically, the fiber that is used to create velvet yarn is what is referred to as a carpet, such as wool carpet when wool is used as the raw material for creating wool yarn and nylon carpet when nylon is used as the raw material. Wool-blended carpets are those constructed of blended yarn that typically include wool components.

The three types of common carpet fleece fiber source materials are:

Natural fibers, synthetic fibers, and blends. Wool and jute are examples of natural fibers among them;

Viscose staple fiber, nylon B CF filament and staple fiber, acrylic staple fiber, polypropylene B CF filament and staple fiber, and polyester staple fiber are examples of chemical fibers;

Wool/nylon, wool/viscose, wool/acrylic, wool/polyester, and wool/jute are examples of blends.
