Frequently Asked Questions About Cormar Carpets
Direct answers from Paul to help you make informed decisions about your flooring project.
Are Cormar polypropylene carpets genuinely bleach-cleanable?
Yes. Cormar Excellon fibres (used in Primo and Sensation) are solution-dyed, allowing stubborn stains to be cleaned with a diluted 1:10 household bleach solution without stripping colour.
Why must Cormar carpets be mechanically power stretched?
Cormar carpets use durable Actionbac woven backings. BS 5325 requires mechanical lever stretching to tension the backing across the room, preventing ripples and loose waves from developing under foot traffic.
Which Cormar carpet is best for high-traffic stairs?
The 80/20 wool blends (such as Town & Country) or heavy Primo Ultra synthetic twists provide the highest crush resistance over stair nosings.
Can Cormar carpets be laid over underfloor heating?
Yes, provided the combined thermal resistance (carpet TOG plus underlay TOG) remains under 2.5 TOG.
