Best rug types for your living room
Wool
Wool rugs are popular due to their insulation properties that feel warm and comfortable underfoot. A perfect rug choice during winter seasons or for properties that are generally on the more colder side, the wool traps warmth that can make your home feel nice and cosy.
Wool Mix
A wool mix rug contains a man-made fibre to reduce the amount of shredding that it could produce, and to keep its original shape for longer. A wool mix rug is most commonly mixed with nylon, polyester or polypropylene to make it more cost-effective for homeowners. As wool mix rugs keep their shape for longer they are a good investment as they can last for 5 years or more!
Polyester
One of the most common materials in rugs for homes is polyester, as it’s more stain resistant when compared to wool and wool mix. Polyester rugs are suitable for many homeowners’ budgets as it’s a low priced material to produce in the UK. They’re also eco-friendly as a percentage of polyester rugs are made from recycled plastic products, why not choose a rug that’s stylish and won’t affect your carbon footprint with Carpet Barn!
