The colors and patterns of printed carpet are endless and unforgettable to the customers or family members who see it. Printed carpets can give a vintage look when you choose old-fashioned designs. Make a first impression with a cleverly printed carpet!
When considering printed carpet, there are a couple of options. Some printed carpet is made of solution-dyed yarn and is dyed before being woven into the carpet. The other option is to purchase a carpet on which the design is printed post-production. Both options are readily available in todays market.
Four Primary Pre-Dyeing Methods for Printed Carpet
In the stock dyeing process, the unfinished carpet is dyed after being tufted with undyed yarn. If youre looking for an olefin carpet, youll end up with a solution-dyed carpet (the only way of dyeing carpet made of olefin). In this process, dye is added to the fiber prior to tufting. With skein dyeing, yarn is immersed into a large vat of searing dye. for a more tweedy style, many colors are printed along the yarn itself when it is tufted. This process is called space dyeing.
Printed carpet that is produced with pre-dyed yarn tends to be more resistant to fading and stains because of the type of dye that is used. Engineered to match perfectly with any surrounding, carpets with printed patterns are a sure bet to impressing anyone. Monochrome carpet is safe and traditional–why not break the mold and try something different?
