The carpet thanks to its numerous advantages became one of the most popular finishing materials for floor in the nursery now: softness, ability to hold warmly, beauty and brightness, protection against sliding, simplicity of mounting and leaving. It is important to follow several rules when choosing children's carpet.
Instruction
1. Choosing from artificial or natural materials, experts advise to stop on artificial. Kind of it was strange, but the natural carpet has much more shortcomings: in it ticks or other insects can be got, over time it can be stratified, forming microbes and organic dust on floor surface, or to grow mouldy under the influence of moisture. When choosing natural materials it is better to talk to the doctor regarding possible allergy at the kid.
2. First of all it is worth deciding on type of covering. In total there are three types of carpet on way of production: woven, needled and tufted. The woven carpet is made as normal carpets, differs in wear resistance and durability, but is the most expensive since has natural jute basis. As floor covering this material quite is suitable for the nursery.
3. The needled way of creation of carpet provides material, on exterior more similar to felt - it practically without pile, and its basis most often is made of rubber. It allows material to be very wearproof and to be used in rooms with big passability: offices, movie theaters, other public places, corridors. But material is not suitable for the nursery, it will be not too pleasant to kid to sit on it during the games.
4. The tufted way creates carpet in which pile at first stick needles in basis, and then fix from reverse side by means of glue. The basis can sometimes be latex. This material is durable and we accept at the price. Such carpet can be miscellaneous: with loops or separate fibers. The loopback carpet is more rigid, more wearproof, but difficult in cleaning. The nap carpet can be long (more than 5 mm), average (3-5 mm) or korotkovorsovy (less than 3 mm). The carpet with pile about 2-3 mm quite will be suitable for the nursery.
5. Not only length, but also type of pile can be miscellaneous: frieze, skroll, velor, Saxony, shegg, etc. For children's rooms usually choose velor pile: the upper part of such covering is fluffy, creating feeling of velor. It is easy to look after such material, it differs in high softness, and the wide choice of bright coloring only adds to it advantages.
6. When choosing carpet to the nursery it is also necessary to pay attention to pile density. The it is more, the it is more difficult to bend or trample down fibers. It allows covering to keep original state longer. On such dense pile the traces from furniture, the fallen objects or children's legs will not be shown. If density of pile is low, it is better to choose bright multi-colored material that it was possible to hide the appearing traces.
7. The choice of coloring of floor - one more important aspect of registration of the children's room. For a long time there were children's coloring allowing to create in the room of the child the whole city with machines, roads and huge buildings, the race circuit or the real lock of the princess. But if some drawings are relevant to children of 7-10 years, then for more senior children such floor will be not on age any more. If the covering is provided for long use, it is better to give preference to abstract patterns and drawings which will suit both kids, and teenagers.
