You’ll see a lot of performance fibers this year. You’ll hear them in carpet brand names like SmartStrand® and EverStrand®.
Ideal for the home that experiences kids’ messes and muddy pawprints, this carpet was tested in a rhinoceros cage for two weeks. At the end of the trial, there was no damage, and all it needed was a hose-down to clean it.
Sorona® is a fiber that’s often compared to nylon in strength.
Everything old is new again
This year there will be a shift back to traditional patterns, only they’re now used in modern settings, with bold vibrant colors that are also part of the 2020 trend.
This might be a good time to check out our rug binding service to repair that heirloom rug that you thought was irreparably damaged. Use it as a scatter rug, a runner or just layer it over another carpet (which is another 2020 trend).
Eco-friendly is the 2020 buzzword
●Mohawk’s EverStrand is made from recycled high-quality plastic bottles. It’s a polyester fiber that goes through an intensive purification process to strengthen the fiber and to remove any residue that can attract dirt.
The result is a highly durable, stain-resistant and fade-resistant carpet that is available in a wide assortment of colors and textures.
●SmartStrand, also by Mohawk, is often called the “corn carpet,” because it’s made from corn sugar and takes 30% less energy to produce. It also offers permanent stain resistance, ultra-durability and “color max,” deep, vibrant color variations.
Other things you’ll see this year
●Textures: Fibers and pile heights will be mixed and matched to create custom designs.
●Bold colors. These will include hues like sapphire and emerald green.
●Earth tones. The rustic/farmhouse/organic look is also popular, so you’ll see lots of tones like green, beige and brown.
●Shag color palette. Once known for its iconic gold, green and brown tones, this rug’s color variation has been expanded to include everything from red to purple and black.
●Patterns. These include florals, stripes, and geometrics.
