Basically there are four types of carpets based on fibre.

  • Nylon,
  • Polyester

Nylon carpets are actually not strain resistant but Shaw carpeting provides stain resistant and environment friendly nylon carpets. Shaw carpets provide cradle to cradle silver certification to carpets meaning that they provide non-hazardous, water efficient and environmentally safe carpets.
