Remember this is a GREY area using a scale called the GREY scale. The samples you have chosen are for colour and possibly not suitable for the area or purpose they were created for. What properties are you looking for or expecting to get from a carpet. To make really sound decisions, we must look at the backing of the carpet, and inspect the label that describes the product. The labeling on the back of the carpet samples that you see in the showroom should contain the essential information called for in British Standard 3655, including the manufacturer's advice regarding the rooms of the house for which the carpet is suitable, e.g. living room, dining room, kitchen, bedroom, bathroom, hail and stairs.
Widths are subject to manufacturing tolerance.
As well as taking note of the manufacturer's recommendations, it is useful to have the advice of your retailer remember you must discuss your home circumstances and your expectations. You should also look for the label of the BCMA Carpet Grading Scheme which has a distinctive logo. The BCMA classification of the carpet may be shown on a separate label, or the information may be incorporated into the manufacturer's label. The BCMA Grading Scheme ensures that the carpet has been independently checked in accordance with a number of British Standard tests. These tests take account of the form of construction of the carpet, the type of pile material, the weight and density of the pile and its height above the backing.
