The History and Future of Berber Carpets 

If your carpet is still shag from out of the 80s, perhaps it is time to update to a more modern carpet.  But be warned, you might be stunned by the options as well as the cost.  Do not make the mistake of choosing carpet only by the color.  You need to also consider construction, fibers, ease of carpet cleaning as well as the home environment it will be put in.

Among the best ways to get carpet more cheaply and make the carpet costs decrease is to shop for carpet with a supplier who purchases directly from the manufacturer and getting rid of one step in the supply chain.  Getting carpet in this way will be a hard to believe benefit to you as the consumer, since charges will be much lower due to the decrease in fees for handling, costs of transportation and various other charges.  Carpet outlets that supply carpet this way in some cases can save you up to 60% when compared to conventional stores.  This is really due to their factory direct prices and is not any exploitation of the rates through a onetime sale.  You probably can use them repeatedly to get you good quality carpets and rugs that are not only durable and fashionable but also cost-effective when it comes to Te Atatu carpet cleaning.

Berber carpet that is traditional continues to fill the same role since ancient times when they were originally invented by the Berber people of Northern Africa.

A traditional Berber carpet is handmade and comes from Morocco and other Northern African countries. They are very colorful and ornate in design. They are very different from carpets that are sold in the West as they are made from natural fibers and are very individualized.

Berber carpet of today is made of densely packed short loops.  These short loops hide foot prints and traffic patterns well, making this a popular choice for high-traffic areas.   Since the carpet is extremely dense, it provides excellent insulation and cushion.  This density also helps stop any dirt from being grounded into the fibers, keeping the carpet beautiful for longer between carpets cleaning.

While Berber’s dense construction may stop dirt from working into the fibers, it may also trap stains and dirt once they get deep.   So the care for it has to be done the correct way; or you will be working on stains that are in some case almost impossible to remove.   But when the carpet cleaning is done correctly this is truly beautiful carpet that can last forever.

With carpets that dense like Berber, it is vital to take care of spots and stains as quickly as they happen. The less of an interval of time that the stain has to soak into the carpet, the less it takes to totally remove it with carpet cleaning products.
