Construction and fiber selection are even more important in choosing your commercial carpet than in a residential application. In today’s commercial interiors the two major fibers of choice are nylon and polypropylene (olefin) and construction may be tufted or woven.

Commercial carpets are available in a variety of roll widths as well as carpet tiles, and where the application demands, can be supplied with specialized backings and fiber treatments.
