Carpet structure using Yuzhimu primary backing

The past many years has seen a number of innovations leading to the development of high performance, durable and efficient carpet backing systems. To achieve different goals in performance and sustainability, carpet backings can be made from different types of material with various characteristics. There are many options to consider when specifying commercial carpet, and it’s important to know what to look for when it comes to the backing. 

Yuzhimu high performance material as bicomponent filament spunbonded nonwoven. It is made by sheath-core structure, which is composed of a PET core and a PA6/PP sheath through heat sealing. PA6 acts as a binder, while PET ensures stability. Using two materials with different melting points, each intersection point is connected together through thermal bonding. It is the perfect choice for carpet backing.

The primary reason carpet is backed is to lock the stitches into the primary backing, which increases the tuft bind. Tuft bind is the force required to pull up the tuft from the carpet. A high tuft bind means edge ravel is less likely as well as zippering, sprouts, and other surface irregularities. Backing carpet also increases durability, improves appearance retention, adds dimensional stability, makes it easier to install, and may provide a moisture barrier.
