You don’t like the coldness of hardwood and stone, but are afraid to choose carpets? Well, don’t be! With a new product on the market like stain resistant carpet, you can completely get rid of your fear from stains and spills. Achieving comfort, energy efficiency, and low-maintenance at the same time is more than possible, here is how:
CLEANING WITH SOAP WATER
When you spill a glass of wine on a regular carpet, the results will stay on indefinitely. We all heard the old wives’ tales about pouring salt or white wine on top of a carpet spill, but in reality nothing but a professional cleaning agency can fix those stains. Well, with stain-resistant carpets this is not the case!
One of the biggest benefits of such carpets is that you can get rid of any type of stain just by pouring soap water on top. For this to be effective though, you must pour the soap before the stain starts drying.

Extra tip: Some types of stain-resistant carpets can be cleaned with bleach as well, but other types can get damaged by this chemical. That’s why you always need to read manufacturer specifications before using your desired cleaning agent.
A MUCH LONGER LIFESPAN
Because of their high-resistance, stain-resistant carpets last much longer than regular ones. Apart from spills and stains, these carpets are also more durable when it comes to wear & tear. The fibers are stronger and can get through many difficult situations.
After you clean a stain from a carpet, some residue might be still visible, while with stain-resistant ones, you will completely refresh its look after every clean up. This higher resistance rate provide a longer lifespan. So if a regular carpet is expected to last up to 5 years without any visible damage, a stain-resistant one can last at least twice as much.
THE MANUFACTURING PROCESS
Considering all of the information above, we can freely conclude that a stain-resistant carpet provides an easier, cheaper, and longer-lasting cleaning process. But, how did manufacturers manage to achieve these results? Well, it’s all about being creative.
The difference between the manufacturing process of a stain-resistant carpet and a regular one isn’t that large. Plain carpets are usually made from nylon which is a synthetic polymer plastic that has waterproof abilities, a smooth texture, and can fight off insects.
And to make this carpet stain-resistant, you just need to add a few more spices into the mix which will make it strong enough to prevent food, urine, mud, and other spills from damaging the material. This is how these wonderful carpets are made and how we can enjoy their wonderful benefits.
Carpets after all are the most comfortable type of flooring to walk on and if there is an option to remove their one and only disadvantage, why not choose it?
