Choosing A Fiber



The Natural Choice … Environmentally Friendly. Fine quality, all natural wool offers numerous advantages when used in flooring. It has been the standard in floor covering for centuries and represents all the qualities that synthetic fibers try to emulate.

DURABLE

Royaltron™ polypropylene will resist signs of wear, with unique long-lasting fibers.

STAIN RESISTANT

Royaltron™ polypropylene does not absorb moisture making spills and stains easily removable with normal cleaning agents.

COLOR FAST

Solution-dyed yarn extrusion is not only safe for the environment; it protects the colors in new carpet from fading and cleaning solvents.

Anti-Static

Carpets made from Royaltron™ polypropylene fibers are permanently anti-static. No more electric shocks.

Anti-Microbial

Carpets made from Royaltron™ polypropylene fibers do not support the growth of mites or bacteria.

NON TOXIC/ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY

All Royaltron™ fiber carpets are free of toxic elements. Because color is "melted in" during production of the fiber, it eliminates the traditional use of large quantities of water for dyeing, contributing to the preservation and the quality of our water.

DURABLE

Wool blended with polypropylene improves abrasion and mechanical stress, and offers top resistance and appearance retention.

THERMAL PROTECTION

The cold-reflecting power of polypropylene added to the warmth ofinsulating wool allows for excellent thermal protection and comfort.

CONTEMPORARY

The wool-polypropylene blend offers exceptional design, stylish colorsand great wear, required elements for today’s active lifestyles

COLOR

Blending natural wool with machine-produced thread improves the color fastness of the final product.



DURABLE

Axminsters are recognized for quality and lasting durability featuring an extremely tough row woven construction that blends the natural benefits of 80% wool, with the resiliency of 20% nylon, making it a great option for everything from Residential to Heavy Duty Commercial.

CLEANABILITY

Wool cleans better and won’t soil quickly due to its natural soil resistance, and Nylon has good cleaning characteristics and holds-up to staining and soiling well if treated and solution dyed.

NON-ALLERGENIC / ANTI - MICROBIAL

Wool is a non-allergenic fiber and does not promote the growth of bacteria and dust mites. Likewise, Nylon shows excellent resistance to mildew.

FLAMMABILITY

Wool will not promote the spread of flames and self extinguishes once the heart source is removed, and Nylon is difficult to ignite and produces little or no smoke making it the ideal choice for children’s room, playroom or family room.

ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY

Wool is a sustainable product offering a longer life cycle than other fibers, and Nylon has superb abrasion resiliency with less pile compaction in comparison to other synthetic yarns resulting in a more environmentally friendly combination.

DURABLE

Nylon has superb abrasion resiliency and displays less pile compaction in comparison to other synthetic yarns.

CLEANABILITY

Nylon has good cleaning characteristics and may be the better choice if exposed to grease, cooking oils, or household lubricants, and holds-up to staining and soiling well if treated and solution dyed.

COLOR RETENTION

Nylon fibers retain their color very well and display good resistance to indirect sunlight fading.

ANTI-MICROBIAL

Like all synthetics, Nylon shows excellent resistance to mildew resulting in less bacterial growth.

FIRE RETARDANT

Nylon is difficult to ignite and produces little or no smoke making it the ideal choice for children's room, playroom or family room.
