Polypropylene or wool carpet?

7 år siden

My builder/carpenter/project manager's carpet guy is recommending 100% polypropylene carpets. My parents say wool. The stain resistance (and price!) of polypropylene appeals but we are going for a high end finish. What do you recommend?

Hello, Amy,

Wool is always a high-end finish, however I do understand the appeal of easy cleaning and a lower price! You don't say what type of pile you are going for -- flat-weave, velvet, twist?

And in which areas of the house? That can also make a difference.

There is always the option of a blend -- depending on the weave, carpets can be 50/50 wool/polypropylene, or 80/20 wool/polyester, which can help you get the best of both worlds.

I have both, and prefer the poly to the wool. The polypropylene has a bit of a sheen to it and feels much more luxurious to me, the wool is a bit 'dead' after 6 years or so.

I preferred polyprop
because polypropylene is very soft, and looks very clean even after two years. If you have kids or animals then
polypropylene is a better option.
