How to choose the right carpet in the nursery

Probably, each family had to repair at least once. And one of the problems of any repair is the choice of different materials for finishing the premises. Which materials to use depend on the specific features of the location of our housing, its layout and area, and on how much you can afford to spend on repairs, as well as on what you most need in your apartment, and what kind of room design do you want to choose.


Usually, it takes less time to choose the floor covering during the repair process, but this is completely unfair, because the comfort in our house almost directly depends on what we have on the floor, it is the floor of the room that carries the greatest load. Quality flooring often provides both the preservation of heat in our home, and a certain degree of noise insulation in it, and, moreover, it has a beautiful and aesthetic appearance and it is simply pleasant to walk on it.
Often, if the family has children, especially younger children, the problem of arranging a children's room is raised. And here the choice of flooring is the most important issue, because young children spend quite a lot of time on the floor during the day.

Today, there is a huge number of a variety of floor coverings, which can be used in almost any room, including in our house. However, most often used material such as carpet, or carpet. Advantages of this material is, firstly, that it is very easily laid, and secondly, its operation is very convenient. As for the structure of the carpet, it consists of three layers: a pile, a primary lining and a secondary lining, which in turn consists of a fixing layer and the liner proper, usually of latex, sometimes of rubber.
The main types of carpet are three: loop carpeting (top with loops), pile carpet (top with villi) and tufting (close to felt by structure). The loop carpet, due to its rigidity, provides high wear resistance of the coating, and the pile carpet perfectly absorbs sound and is pleasant when walking. Tafting has a high wear resistance and is quite cheap, so it is used in large rooms with a high traffic intensity. Carpet can be made from natural fibers or from synthetic fibers. Among natural fibers, coconut, cotton, jute (vegetable fibers), as well as silk, wool are used.

However, as we have already said, the greatest attention should be given to the carpet we will be carpeting in the children's room. There are several recommendations. Carpet with natural materials should not be placed in the children's room, for several reasons. Natural fibers tend to separate. And then on the surface of the carpet is formed a layer of litter and dust, which will inevitably be inhaled by our child, especially when playing on the floor. In addition, in natural fibers, various animals are often planted - from common microbes to mites, sometimes natural carpets can even mold, and this, of course, is very dangerous for the child. In addition, carpet from natural fibers can cause the child an allergic reaction. Therefore, if you want to put carpets made from natural fibers in children's furniture, consult with specialists, in particular, with a doctor. Therefore, in the children's room is best to make carpets made of synthetic fibers. Of course, you can choose almost any synthetic carpet, but you need to consider several conditions.

First, the carpet in the nursery should be soft so that the child can not be injured during games on the floor. Secondly, the children's carpet should keep the heat well to protect your child from colds, especially if you have cold floors in your home. Thirdly, children's carpet should have antistatic properties and be non-flammable, and not cause allergies. Fourth, in the nursery you need to put a carpet, which would be easy to clean - because children, playing, very often spoil the floor. Fifth, carpet in the children's room must be strong, resistant to increased impact, since most children are very active, which means that their room is constantly moving. Sixth, for a child, if you have a small child, it is better to choose a carpet of positive colors or with amusing drawings - this coverage will help create the child's emotional background in the room.
Many companies involved in the production and sale of carpets, offer a specialized children's carpet, which meets all the above requirements. They also offer carpet flooring services - as the carpet should be laid more carefully in the child's room than in other rooms and secured with safe materials, best of all without the use of glue.

Now you know how to choose the right carpet in the nursery. Together in the child you decide on the color, and your repair will be interesting!
