Synthetic versus natural carpet fibers – what’s the difference?

Shopping for the best carpet, area rug, or stair runner will reveal a wealth of decisions you’ll have to make, including natural or synthetic carpet fibers. In today’s post, we’re going to tell you more about the differences between them so you can make a well-informed decision as to which one is best for you.

Custom stair runner carpet and more

When you customize a hall or stair runner carpet, one of the things you can specify is a particular carpet fiber. And that’s when the difference between natural and synthetic fibers will matter most.

Natural fibers, as you might suppose, are those that occur most naturally, and include options such as wool, jute, and sisal, to name a few. On the other hand, synthetic fibers are manufactured and have options like nylon, polyester, and olefin, providing you with many additional benefits like stain protection and a longer lifespan.

Your custom choices allow you to choose the fiber that best fits your needs so you can customize each product for each space. This is particularly beneficial in bedrooms, hallways, children's rooms, and playrooms, where activity can be more or less, depending on your household, so be sure to speak with our associates for more details or get started today.
