performance
Different qualities of carpet will perform at different levels.
To narrow down your carpet selection, there are a number of factors you need to take into consideration to help find a product that best suits your needs – What kind of ‘traffic’ will your carpet endure? What style & texture would best suit your situation? Do you have pets?
The Carpet Institute of Australia have created a grading system known as the Australian Carpet Classification Scheme (ACCS) which tests and rates carpets based on their results. This is the most widely used grading system – however there are others in the marketplace. You will find gradings on the back of samples. They give you a very clear indication as to what level of durability each carpet will deliver so your selection is made easier.
colour
The colour palettes available today are wide and varied. Choice of colour can create different moods, feelings and perceptions in your home. For example – shades of blue and green are often perceived as cooling, soothing and calming, light colours give areas a more spacious appearance, whilst darker colours give these areas a more cosy feeling. For more information on colour selection visit our interactive room decorator section in this site or speak to your local Carpet Court store.
