Information about wool carpet. 
Wool is a natural fibershorn from sheep. The type is determined by the breed of the sheep and the climate.Most fabrics use long and short fibers wool fibers interlocked together. Wool carpet has the natural ability hold and release water vapor by climate conditions. It becomes a natural humidifier. A microscopic view of the wool fiber shows overlapping scales arranged much like roof shingles. The scales keep dust and dirt near the surface of the carpet pile, were it can be released by vacuuming. The scaley character of the fiber scatters optical light, thus reducing soiling visibility. Wool is naturally flame resistant, forming a charthat will neither melt or drip.
Characteristics of Wool Carpet: Natural resilience, good resistance to abrasion, good texture retention, goood resistance to soil, and good cleanability.
Wool Carpet Cleaning Information
We understand that you don’t have the time to spend on time-consuming
cleaning, which can also be expensive. With a minimum amount of routine care and maintenance, your wool carpet will steadfastly retain its original texture, color and overall appearance. These simple tips will help you maintain its top condition:
• Expect new wool carpet to shed its loose fibers in the beginning. This
will gradually decrease in the first couple of months until it becomes
unnoticeable.
• Regular vacuuming is wool carpet’s best friend as it will pick up these
loose fibers as well as the soil and dirt that is held by the wool fibers at
the carpet’s surface and keep it looking fresh and clean.
• Slow and careful vacuum strokes over the carpet is more effective than a quick run over. This will do more to groom the carpet and help it to
maintain its appearance.
• To clean up a liquid spill, first blot it up with a clean, dry absorbent
cloth as quickly as possible. Then blot the area with a clean towel dampened with hot water to pull the substance up from the surface of the wool carpet. Continue to blot with clean, dry towels until the area does not leave wet spots on the towel.
• Avoid using soap to clean spills as it is difficult to thoroughly get out
of carpet and will attract dirt and make dark spots on the carpet in the
future.
• Avoid rubbing strokes with the cloth as you clean, as this would disrupt
the appearance of the fibers.
