How to choose a children's carpet?

Carpeting for finishing the floor is convenient in that it has a pleasant, soft and warm texture, which creates additional comfort and comfort in the room. That's why most often carpet is used in the bedroom and the baby room. Soft, muffling steps and a noise-absorbing floor are especially suitable for a nursery. It is very convenient when the baby is asleep (it is possible to pass absolutely unnoticed around the room), and also when the toddler or kids are playing, starting a noisy fuss with jumps and running around, because such a floor not only drowns out excessive noise, but also saves from bruises in the fall, And it's just nice to play on it.

Given the targeted use of soft cover, many manufacturers produce a children's carpet, which differs from the usual not so much by the composition and production method, as by the bright special coloring. For example, it depicts cartoon characters or, more interesting and original, game cards with paths, streets and houses. You can see, choose and buy it in specialized salons of finishing flooring materials. Carpeting is made of two types: woven, which like a real carpet is woven on a machine, and a nonwoven - created with the help of modern technology, which allows tightly sewing or gluing with pile threads a finished fabric. Woven carpets, thanks to the traditional method of production, are made of natural wool or silk, which increases not only their cost, but also durability. In the manufacture of nonwoven materials, synthetic fibers - nylon, polyamide, vinyl - are often used. The denser the structure of the fabric, the more wear-resistant the floor will be. Therefore, when choosing a carpet, it is necessary to know its density (it is indicated by the manufacturer on a roll).

No matter how much we would like to surround the baby with everything the best and natural, but the children's carpet is better to choose from synthetics. Such a floor, undoubtedly, will have a number of necessary advantages. First of all, good synthetics (nylon and polyamide) does not cause allergies, dust and dirt accumulate less in it, especially if you choose a children's carpet with a little nap. Nylon is easy to clean and quickly dries, dust mites and other microorganisms are not found in it. In a word, those qualities that are desirable for sex in the nursery are inherent in the synthetic material.

Thinking over the color solution of the room for the child, pay attention to the carpet with a child's drawing. Such a floor, no doubt, will not only decorate the room, but will also add an additional game element to it. Only it should be noted that a bright child's carpet with a specific pattern will quickly get bored, a baby will "outgrow" such a floor that it will require replacing the cover, but perhaps this is for the best, because the pile fabric accumulates a certain amount of dust, which is difficult to extract completely.

Carpet in the nursery (photo for an example given in the article) does not necessarily choose with a picture, with typewriters, images of cartoon characters, etc. Completely suitable material is more muted colors, with abstract, floral or geometric patterns. Such a floor is more universal and will appeal not only to the small inhabitants of the room, but to older children. Choosing a floor covering in the children's room, the main attention should be paid not to the color and pattern, but to the quality and composition of the material from which it is made, but forget about the coloring is also not worth it.
