Nylon vs. polyester: what is the difference?


When you get serious about your carpeting, you begin to look into the specifics of what will make a perfect flooring choice for your home, based on your preferences and requirements. Today, we will discuss nylon and polyester and how they differ, so read along now.

Consider these carpeting options today

Nylon is easily one of the most-used carpet materials in the industry, as they are incredibly durable, long-lasting, and strong, with attractive options that match any d?cor scheme. These materials make up most of the carpets sold, as one of the most popular fiber choices.

However, polyester is a close match, offering stain protection that is hard to beat. The colors are brighter and the surfaces shinier, though they don't hold up entirely as well under the pressure of daily wear and traffic.

Both materials are an excellent choice for softness and comfort and perfect for bedrooms, studies, children's rooms, and living rooms. If you're ready to find out more about these fibers and how they might best serve your household, be sure to visit us and speak with a flooring professional about your specific requirements today.
