We are well and truly in allergy season and many of us are suffering with hay fever and other types of allergies. 

Contrary to public opinion, carpets can help in the reduction of allergens in your home: that is a fact and this is especially true when you ensure carpet cleaning is done on a strict and regular schedule. New carpet is the lowest VOC (volatile organic compound) emitting flooring choice available. It actually acts as an air filter, trapping dust, pollen and other particles and removing them from the breathing zone.

“Studies have shown that people with asthma problems have seen symptoms improve with carpet”. Ref: Carpet Institute However, if you happen to neglect regular carpet cleaning procedures, this will be the cause of certain health concerns and problems which you may not be aware of.

Carpet Cleaning Tips to Reduce and Stop Allergens at Home

  • Have a regular schedule on carpet cleaning; make sure that you follow your schedules and never neglect them to provide constant cleanliness in and out of your floor carpet
  • Carpet is known to trap allergens that aggravate a person’s health; take time to vacuum and deep clean your carpet to eliminate the growth of bad allergens in your carpet.
  • Use a vacuum that comes with a HEPA filter.
  • Carpet cleaning comes best when done at six to nine months.

At Suffolk Carpet Weavers, we sell and fit wool and synthetic carpets and also vinyl flooring and the latest on-trend easy care luxury vinyl tiles. We can also help you design your own unique carpet here too. Unit 5, Bridge Business Park, Top Street, Old Martlesham IP12 4RB

Brockway carpets has launched its NEW Herdwick Herringbone Runners for 2022 that are made from the same Herdwick range – so now you can co-ordinate your runner with the Lakeland Herdwick range carpets available.

These runners are grown in Cumbria, spun in Yorkshire and woven in Kidderminster. They are woven using a combination of undyed wool yarns combined or paired with black, the colours reflect the earthy rustic palette of the Cumbrian hills and fells.

These runners are authentically British carpets that are rugged and durable due to the natural resilience of one of Britain’s best loved and hardiest sheep breeds.

Carpet is making a welcome comeback for 2022.

Whichever room you are decorating, it’s worth making a fuss of the floor. In a living room, we recommend a statement rug or carpet. Not only will it ground the room but it can serve as the starting point from which to build the scheme. It’s a worthwhile investment, and your feet will thank you come winter.

By treating the floor as the ‘5th wall’, carpet is a fantastic way to introduce colour or pattern into your home. The floor should not be an after-thought, instead the entire room can be styled from the floor up!

Choosing a bright, bold contrasting colour or pattern in rich tones or geometrics, the carpet can be a way of self-expression. Or alternatively an earthy, organic natural carpet is something that will endure for many years.

Almost all carpet manufacturers have ranges covering both styles and the choice then falls on the individual and it should be considered next to the other 4 walls. Some trends currently taking hold are below. These can bring great joy and comfort to a person when used correctly.

1.      The natural option

2.      Eco-chic

3.      Hotel Luxe

4.      Bold and Bright

5.      Maximalism

6.      Pattern Play

7.      Geometrics

8.      Jewel Tones

The Christmas tree is up and the sheep kindly donated by www.hughmackay.com are helping to create the festive cheer in the showroom. We have decided to have a wool theme this year at Suffolk Carpet Weavers, and have made the hats for the sheep and the pom poms for the Christmas Tree. The wool theme has been chosen because we buck the trend of most carpet retailers and sell mostly woollen carpets which we have starting from as little as £16.99 per square metre. We stock synthetics too at various prices but our customers seem to prefer wool.

 

Pop into our showroom to take a look around at all of our ranges. We have a large two-storey showroom in Old Martlesham that has many ranges and styles. Call us or pop in.

Grey is the on-trend colour that we are all wanting. Grey is amazing and its versatility is what makes it so popular.

Each era has a trend. The 80s were chintz and busy or magnolia. The 70s were bright garish patterns with clashing colours.

Now we have greys and monochromes that can be made edgy and modern or charming country home.

Greys can be calming and soothing or vivid, lively and energetic. It can be added to warmer neutrals, add a sophisticated understated pattern or you can add a shot of bright colour to keep it modern.

When looking at interior designs and colour charts there are a myriad of possibilities and colours. From the dark brooding shades like Charcoal, Greystoke or Granite to the light charming shades like Frosted Silver, Aluminium or Cape Diamond.

In the carpet world, we also have the options of pattern and textures. They come in stripes and tartans or geometric patterns and different textures like twists, loops, herringbones, velvets, wools and synthetics. The beauty of carpets is that so many colours are available in so many different budgets.

At Suffolk Carpet Weavers, we have a huge variety of ranges to choose from. Come into the showroom to have a look at the ranges and get advise if needed. Unit 5 Bridge Business Park, Top Street, Old Martlesham, IP12 4RB or call 01394 610202.
