Viscose Carpets – The History and Science of Carpets
Viscose hand woven carpets are very soft and smooth unlike wool. It is also a natural material. Viscose carpets are a great cost-effective alternative to silk carpets. Like their luxury counterparts, viscose designs offer exceptional smoothness and a glossy finish. Viscose fibers have the same visually high sheen as silk yarns. This makes viscose rugs a suitable alternative to more luxurious textiles.
Viscose carpets are known for their great comfort, which is due to the soft rayon fibres that are embedded in the carpet. The carpets are offered in bright colors and with striking patterns that will elevate the decor of any home. Although some arrangers use viscose rugs as wall decorations.
Viscose rugs offer an easy way to enhance interior decor on a limited budget. They are available in a range of enticing patterns and bold colours. They are made from natural synthetic fibres that add exceptional comfort.
The location of a viscose rug can be used throughout the home due to their durable viscose. A beige viscose rug will look great in rooms decorated in neutral tones, while red patterns will add vibrancy to intimate spaces such as the living room.
Viscose rugs allow you to easily achieve a designer look without having to dig deep into your pockets. You can either choose a simple colour or combine different shades to achieve a more eclectic look.
Viscose carpet cleaning and maintenance
Viscose carpets with natural material require professional care. It is not recommended to attempt home deep cleaning via a steam cleaner from the back and front, as the steam cleaner is unable to clean it all and the excessive heat penetrating it damages the wool and its natural lanolin. Excessive heat can also lead to shrinkage of the natural fibres of viscose carpets, which can put you at risk of permanent damage.
Home care for viscose carpets is simple. Regular weekly vacuuming ideally with a knocking head will not harm it for decades. The natural vegetable dyes, dense weave and natural grease of virgin wool provide protection so that most dirt will not penetrate the carpet at all. Only the smallest particles of sand and dust can settle in the foundation over time. In order to remove even the smallest dust particles from the carpet, it is recommended to have the carpet deep cleaned every 2-3 years by an expert – professional natural carpet cleaner.
If the viscose carpet only comes into contact with water, it is usually enough to dry it thoroughly on both sides. Viscose is particularly sensitive to moisture. Therefore, care must be taken not to ruin the carpet with spilled liquids. Any spillages should be wiped up immediately with an absorbent cotton cloth. The carpet will lift for several days in a wet place, as the warp expands due to the moisture. Once the moisture has escaped from the carpet, the warp will settle again and the carpet will not change. Heavy rubbing of water stains in dry conditions or the use of cleaning agents should be avoided, as both can damage the viscose carpet. In the case of coffee or cola stains, you should contact a professional as soon as possible. You can treat the stain yourself using lukewarm water and dishwashing liquid. However, you should seek professional advice before doing so.
