Contract Carpet

Contract Carpet

Contract Carpet
I don’t know why but today I feel like sharing all my experience with you all for the field of contract area rugs or contract area carpets.

This is very tough segment, but I enjoy, for the reason of brain storming exercises.

Don’t treat this as a simple job.Making rugs or carpets for contract industry is not a joke. You have to understand the colour senstiveness for the rugs to be made. By this I mean the matching has to be done as close as possible, I remember we had project in past where the wool has to be made with silk mix, and the shade was blue, believe me the colour came so perfect that it was tough to make out where the silk was used and where the wool, it was the shinning or lusture of silk which made reaslised the difference.

After Matching colour the weaving perfection is taken care in handmade rugs. Which colour has to be filled at which place is important, otherwise whole look changes.

Hospitality rugs

When we talk about rugs for hotels or villas or beach resort or even residential apartments, we mean handtufted woolen rugs. Woolen rugs are considered to be one of the best rugs, made in handtufted, for the reason of price, delivery time and designs.

Where one handknotted rug of say 6’x9’ or 200x300 cms, takes around 90 days just to weave, a handtufted rug is ready within 30 days or so. Pricewise handtufted rugs are also cheap.

Hospitality industry welcomes and greets handtufted rugs made in 100% newzealand wool. These days, however the demand have also raised in blended wool i.e. Indian wool and newzealand wool, which gives tight look. To give different look, viscose yarn is added.

Pile height suitable for these are 12mm, with cotton canvas cloth. The best rug to be laid for hotels, I prefer are hand-tufted rugs.

Custom area rugs

Do you know how much it take effort to make a single custom design rug? Certain things are fixed whether you make one rug or 100 rugs. We have done some projects for hotels, villas, residential apartments, and have noticed the change in trend. At one point one ask for faded look where the design at some places are smerged with the base. I mean when you look at it, you will say hey look he has missed weaving that particular area of rug, on the other side, you will find the client who wants everything to look sharp. So may it be antique look custom rug or solid look custom rug, everything moves, it depends, what your client is looking for.

Rugs and carpets for hotels

Hospitality Rugs or say Rugs for hotels has to pass certain parameters, which has to be taken care while manufacturing of rugs, or say before packing. The major one in this segment is fire retardant or Flame retardant. This means that when the fire falls on the rug or carpet on floor, the fire will not be spread.

We have certified chemicals where after use of which this is totally safe from the pile material that the fire will not spread.

When we talk in terms of the other issues, it is density of the rugs or carpet, its pile height.

Other important factor is the foot traffic on the rug. Whether the rugs laid are suitable for low traffic, medium traffic or high traffic? This issue is directly related mainly with the Fibre length of the carpet.

It is also important to note the yarns being used for the rugs for hotels. Are you using wool for your rugs or carpets or viscose (artificial silk), or silk or any such othr natural and man made fibre. Please make note that every yarn has its own different properties and strength to absorb the foot traffic.

Custom made tibetan rugs

Custom Tibetan Rugs are those which are manufactured as per your design, size and quality. When we talk for the quality, we mainly mean knots per square inch, to check the density part.

Tibetan area Rugs are mainly weaved under 45 knots, 60 knots, 80 knots and 100 knots quality, more higher knots like 150 and 200 knots are also made, but we are talking in general terms.

Indo-tibetan area rugs are handknotted rugs---- The Tibetan weaving technique is unique. Unlike other weaving traditions, the knots in a Tibetan rug are usually tied over a rod. When a row of knots is completed, the pile is cut and the rod is slipped out, leaving an overall flat surface.

These are made in wool, viscose, i.e. artificial silk, in hemp, in bamboo silk, in original silk and such other different kind of yarns.
