Floorcovering
• Your greatest "furnishing power" lies in your
floorcovering, because the floor is the largest
unbroken expanse to be decorated. If you haven't
realized how important it is in your room scheme, just
remember how bare and forlorn your room looks when
you take up your rug to. be cleaned.

Carpet Density & PerformanceCRI Carpet And Rug Institute
Carpet performance is associated, in part, with pile yarn density, the amount of pile yarn in a given volume of carpet face. For a given carpet weight, lower pile height and higher pile yarn density will give the most performance for the money. Density is also influenced by the number of tufts per inch when counting across a width of carpet, e.g., a 1/8 gauge carpet has eight tuft rows per inch of width and a 1/10 gauge carpet has ten rows per inch of width; and the size of the yarn in the tufts. Extra heavy traffic conditions require a density of 5000 or more.

Cut Pile / Tufted Carpet CRI Carpet And Rug Institute
Tufted carpet is produced on machines similar to sewing machines. Several hundred needles stitch hundreds of rows of pile yarn tufts through a backing fabric called the primary backing. The yarn is caught by loopers and held in place for loop-pile carpet or cut by blades for cut-pile carpet. Next, a secondary backing, usually polypropylene, is laminated with latex to the carpet. Other alternatives are attached cushion backings that will add resilience, acoustical insulation, and comfort underfoot. "Tufted patterns are now very elaborate and durable. Patterns that were once only achieved through weaving or printing are now achieved through advanced tufting technology, " says Bob Kokoszka of Burtco Enterprises.

Room flooring choices
• Decorators say, the charm of a
room really begins with the
floor, and as the floor is such a
permanent factor in a room,
your floorcovering must be the
"key" to the character of the
entire room. Decide what kind of
rug or carpet you will have, and
then develop your decorative
scheme from that foundation.
