TUNBRIDGE WELLS CARPET BARN
beautiful floors for discerning tastes
Carpets
Carpets are the epitome of elegance for discerning homes and sophisticated spaces in Tunbridge Wells. Available in an exquisite range of colours, textures, and premium materials, no other flooring can match the luxurious warmth and softness of a finely crafted carpet.
If you’re seeking the perfect carpet for your Tunbridge Wells residence or business, the key lies in selecting a carpet that complements your space, enhancing the atmosphere with unparalleled style.
For luxury properties, hotels, and executive offices, only the finest, most durable carpets will suffice. High-traffic areas require resilient yet refined options like high-quality carpet tiles or bespoke runners that maintain their elegance over time.
In your home, indulge in the opulence of a plush carpet, where the right pile creates an ambience of comfort and sophistication.
Types of pile
Twist
The yarn is tightly twisted in one direction, making these carpets durable and often fairly plain in appearance. To minimise the visibility of dirt in high-traffic areas such as stairs and hallways, it’s advisable to choose a stippled pattern. Most manufacturers offer twist finishes in a variety of colours.
Loop / Berber
You'll easily recognise these carpets by their continuous fibres. Loop designs are more resilient than twisted options, and Berber carpets are a sustainable choice for most areas. However, if you have pets, bear in mind that claws can catch on the loops and unravel the weave.
Flatweave
A flatweave finish is crafted from looped threads, creating a low-profile surface that appears flat and smooth. This type of finish is known for its durability and resilience, making it an ideal choice for high-traffic areas such as stairs and hallways.
Saxony
Saxony carpeting is a popular choice for bedrooms, snugs, and lounges, offering a luxurious feel with its long, velvety tufts. This cut-pile option provides a plush, dense texture that adds warmth and sophistication to any space, making it ideal for creating a cosy and inviting atmosphere.
Velvet
Velvet cut-pile carpets are similar to woven carpets but are crafted with denser tufts, resulting in a plush and smooth texture. This creates an elegant, velvety finish that adds a touch of luxury to any room, making it a popular choice for those seeking a refined and sophisticated look.
Types of material
Polypropylene
Polypropylene is a popular carpet fibre used in both commercial and residential settings, nearly as soft as nylon. It mimics natural wool and serves as a synthetic alternative. While it resists stains well, it can attract dirt due to its tendency to retain oils. It’s relatively easy to clean, with bleach often usable. Less resilient than nylon, polypropylene is commonly found in loop-style carpets like Berbers and is generally more affordable than nylon or wool carpets.
Wool
Wool is a natural and luxurious carpet fibre celebrated for its exceptional softness and durability. To offer both quality and affordability, many manufacturers create blends like wool/acrylic. Pure wool carpets are free from chemicals and additives, making them an excellent choice for those with allergies or sensitivities. With its inherent elegance and comfort, wool is a superb option for creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.
Eco Friendly
Eco-friendly yarn made from recycled materials, such as plastic bottles, represents a sustainable choice for conscientious consumers. This innovative fibre transforms waste into a valuable resource, reducing environmental impact while offering a durable and stylish flooring option. By choosing carpets crafted from recycled yarn, you support the reduction of plastic waste and contribute to a greener planet, all while enjoying a high-quality, resilient product that maintains its appearance and performance over time.
Natural
Natural carpets made from materials like sisal, seagrass, and coir provide both elegance and sustainability. These renewable fibres offer distinctive textures and durability, with sisal and seagrass adding a touch of natural beauty and resilience to your home, while coir provides excellent toughness. Together, they support environmentally friendly practices and create a stylish, eco-conscious flooring choice.
Wool Mix
Wool mix carpets, such as those with 50% wool and 50% synthetic fibres or an 80/20 blend, combine the best of both worlds. The natural wool component adds luxurious softness, warmth, and resilience, while the synthetic fibres enhance durability and ease of maintenance. This blend balances the comfort and elegance of wool with the practical benefits of synthetic materials, making it an excellent choice for high-traffic areas and diverse home environments. Wool mix carpets offer a stylish and functional flooring solution that is both comfortable and long-lasting.
