Axminster Carpet is renowned for its exceptional durability
Axminster Carpet is renowned for its exceptional durability,
making it one of the top choices for high-traffic commercial areas (such as hotels, offices, airports, conference rooms) as well as high-quality residential homes.
This durability is primarily due to its unique weaving process and construction:
Woven Construction:
Axminster Carpet is woven (woven carpet), not tufted or needled.
This means that the pile yarns of the carpet are woven from the inside out and completely through the warp and weft structure of the carpet back.
This construction keeps the pile yarns extremely securely locked into the base. It is almost impossible for individual piles to be easily pulled out or loosened.
Secure Pile Locking:
During the weaving process, each weft yarn spans the entire width of the carpet and wraps around the pile yarns. This wrapping is like tying a "knot" to firmly secure the pile yarns.
This is one of the most critical durability factors of Axminster carpets - the pile is "woven" in place, rather than glued or simply pierced into the base (like tufted carpets). This makes it extremely resistant to plucking and stripping (the bottom of the pile will not fall off easily).
Resistant to compression and deformation:
Axminster carpets usually have a high pile density and a tighter weave structure.
This makes the carpet pile less likely to be crushed by furniture legs or other heavy objects and leave permanent indentations (i.e. good resilience).
The weave structure itself also provides good dimensional stability, and the carpet is not easy to stretch, deform or wrinkle.
Material selection:
Axminster carpets often use natural wool or high-performance nylon as the pile material.
Wool: Natural has excellent resilience, stain resistance, flame retardancy and long service life. High-quality wool Axminster carpets can be used for decades.
Nylon: Modern high-performance nylons (such as nylon 6,6) have extremely excellent wear resistance, stain resistance, color fastness and resilience, making them a very popular choice for commercial spaces.
A strong cotton or synthetic backing (warp and weft) provides a strong foundation.
High Performance:
Excellent Wear Resistance: Thanks to the strong pile lock, high density and hard-wearing materials, Axminster carpets can withstand extremely high foot traffic and the pile wears slowly.
Indentation and Indentation Recovery: The high-density structure helps it resist and recover from furniture indentations.
Plucking Resistance: The woven structure makes it almost impossible for a whole bunch of pile to be easily pulled out or pulled out.
Dimensional Stability: It is not easy to stretch or shrink, and it is flat after installation.
Actual Service Life
Commercial Spaces: With good maintenance, high-quality Axminster carpets (especially wool or high-performance nylon) can usually last 10-25 years or even longer (depending on the specific foot traffic and maintenance). Extremely high-traffic areas such as airports and large hotel lobbies may be renewed after 10-15 years, while ordinary office areas can easily use more than 15 years.
Residential spaces: With relatively low foot traffic, a well-maintained, high-quality Axminster carpet can easily last 20, 30 or even half a century (especially pure wool styles).
