2. Overview

Carpets and rugs have an amazing history. It is believed that they were being woven and used in homes as far back as 4,000 to 5,000 years ago. Central Asia was the first to use carpet, but then it spread. The Turkish began making them, and then the Persians got in on the thrill that making carpet and rugs gave them. Later on, India and Pakistan caught on, which led to European carpets, Spanish carpets, and French carpets. It goes on and on.

The carpets and rugs of the western world have carried over from traditional carpets. Over time, such carpeting as commercial carpet was developed to handle the heavy traffic businesses encounter on a day-to-day basis. There is even carpet for the outdoors and other specific situations.

There are also rugs. Rugs are like a form of carpeting. The only difference is that they are smaller and they usually accent a carpet. There are round rugs, contemporary rugs, and so much more. There is literally a style for virtually anyone.

Carpets and rugs have quite a few benefits. First of all, they protect the flooring underneath them. This is important because weak flooring can cause injury. Carpet protects the flooring to a certain extent from mold, mildew, and other harmful agents that can cause the floor to weaken.

Carpets and rugs also make a room look great. Rooms are dependent upon their floor covering when it comes to style. Throughout the years there have been carpets made of different types of materials. In the 1970s, shag carpet was popular. By the 1980s, plush carpet was the way to go. Nowadays, the type of carpet simply depends on taste. There really isn’t an “in” and there really isn’t an “out.” It is rare that you’ll see a shag carpet in a home, but if someone wants it, they’re going to get it. Shag carpet is known for giving a room a warm feeling.
