What’s the difference between wool twist and plain wool carpets?
Twist carpets are made from tightly spun fibres, giving them a more textured and durable finish compared to smooth wool piles.
Are wool twist carpets suitable for stairs?
Yes — they’re ideal for stairs and hallways. The dense pile resists flattening and handles heavy foot traffic extremely well.
Wool is naturally stain and dirt resistant. For added peace of mind, many 80/20 blends also include stain protection treatments.
What’s better — 100% wool or 80/20 wool blend?
100% wool offers natural softness and insulation, while 80/20 blends add synthetic fibres for extra durability and resilience.
How do I clean a wool twist carpet?
Vacuum regularly using a suction-only cleaner. Blot spills immediately and arrange professional cleaning as needed.
Can I add edging or taping to a wool carpet?
Absolutely — wool twist carpets can be bordered or taped for stair runners and rugs.
