By Modern Carpet, we are referring to carpets that have "Pile" (as in above images), unlike our "Natural floorcoverings" they do not have pile as such.

Their are Two main types of Modern carpets namely, Tufted and Woven.

• Tufted carpets usually have Two backings, the First is the Primary backing, this is usually made of a mesh type of POLLYPROPELYNE, that holds the Pile in place, then their is a Secondary backing (usually made of Jute or Polypropylene) that is glued onto the primary backing, the correct lamination of these two backings, is what will gives this carpet it's strength and dimensionally stability.

• Woven carpets normally only have a single (primary) backing, this carpet is usually called an Axminster or Wilton carpet, with this type of carpet the backing consists of lengths of what are called "Weft" and "Warp" filaments/twine, whereby these twines and the Pile are woven to incorporated into what is seen on the underside of this carpet and is called the backing and this woven backing is what gives this carpet it's superior strength and dimensionally stability better than a Tufted carpet.
