Carpet tiles are considered the last representative of the carpet, but in fact, this material is the same carpet, only cut into the same half -meter squares. The only feature of the carpet tile that distinguishes it from the traditional carpet is the presence of elastic, but at the same time a sufficiently flexible substrate. The basis of carpet tiles is made of bituminous resins, such a substrate increases the weight of the material, accordingly prevents bending its angles and reduces the level of sliding of the tile along the floor.
Carpet tiles have standardized dimensions and is available in the form of half -meter squares, the material of such dimensions greatly simplifies its installation and allows you to combine tiles of various color schemes. With the help of carpet tiles, as well as from rolled carpet, you can create an integral floor canvas in appearance, or you can easily and simply lay such a tile in the form of a chessboard.
In general, carpet tiles have the same advantages as the classic carpet, but do not forget about the disadvantages of this material, because the carpet tile assigns the negative qualities of the carpet. Carpet tiles, like the carpet, is trampled over time, but to eliminate such a defect, you only need to replace a fragment of a spoiled coating, and not change the entire canvas as with carpet.
Carpet tiles assigns a fairly original quality of practicality for designers, the fact is that this material can be successfully cut into fragments necessary for dimensions. This quality of the material allows you to create floor coverings with an original docking or unusual forming form, and the elements of carpet tiles are often used by designers to create small rugs.
The qualities of carpet tiles are more determined by the properties of its pile and to increase the stability of the tiles to wear, burnout and pollution, Anthron fiber was developed. Anthron carpet tile is considered the most reliable and durable representative of carpet coatings made on the basis of synthetic fibers, because a high -strength nylon is used for the production of Anthron. Nylon strength exceeds the reliability level of all other known materials, but the mechanical strength of such carpet tiles also increases due to the original section of the fibers. As a result of production, the Anthron carpet tile has a more elastic pile, respectively, more resistant to pollution and abrasion. It is also important that such a synthetic pile of such tiles is stained using a special technology, which subsequently protects it from premature burnout and allows you to clean the carpet tile with various caustic chemical compositions.
