Your Home Deserves the Durability of Nylon Carpet Fiber

Here's a Traditional Feel That Never Goes Out of Style

Nylon FiberNylon

DEFINITION: Fiber-forming substance of any long-chain, synthetic polyamide having recurring amide groups as an integral part of the polymer chain. First used in 1959 in carpet. Offered as BCF or staple. Used in residential and commercial applications. Produced as a solution-dyed fiber or white yarn to-be-dyed. Accounts for 65% of all face fibers in carpet.

A good track record can go a long way. Thanks to the ability to withstand heavy foot traffic while retaining brilliant appearance, Nylon carpets have long been keeping homes beautiful and remain a popular choice when it comes to uplifting households today.

At Mohawk, Wear-Dated carpet is our premium nylon fiber, a tremendous combination of luxury and function.

The fiber design itself allows for an immense amount of dyeability, meaning we can offer our friezes, cut-loop piles, shag or Saxony in a wide array of colors and shades.

In addition to lending resiliency for the most traveled areas of the house including hallways, dens, and family rooms, the tightly woven nylon fibers also provide for easy clean-ups in kitchens and dining rooms as well.

There's good reason that these fibers have been a hit for the past 50 years.

By absorbing the wear-and-tear without letting it show, Nylon carpeting has earned the trust of consumers everywhere and will continue to deliver under pressure.
