What are the health benefits of carpet?
IMPROVED AIR QUALITY
Carpet has a positive effect
on indoor air quality
■
Carpet bers trap microscopic
particles/allergens, reducing their
continued circulation in the air
■
Vacuuming 2–3 times per week
effectively removes dust and
allergens from carpet and helps
keep them out of the air
SUITABLE FOR ALL
Hypoallergenic materials
make breathing easy
■
Today’s carpet is made from
harmless materials found in
clothing and other everyday fabrics
■
These bers—polyester, nylon,
Triexta
™
and olen—do not
trouble most people with
asthma and allergies
NO MOLD/LOW VOC
Carpet cuts down on these
risks to your health
■
As long as carpet is kept clean and
dry, mold cannot grow on its bers
■
Carpet is one of the lowest emitters
of VOCs into the indoor environment
■
New carpet’s low-level VOC
emissions and harmless odor
disappear within 48 to 72 hours
of installation—even sooner with
open windows or doors
GO WITH CARPET
A great answer for families
that wish to maintain
a healthy, comfortable
home, as well as those
