In terms of performance and feel, nylon is second to wool, although it often costs less. Nylon can be used to create a wide range of styles and constructions, including frieze, textured, shag, and loop cut loop (LCL). It is suited to almost any place due to its exceptional soil resistance, colorfastness, and resilience, which allows it to bounce back. If the manufacturer so desires, some of it can be recycled once into a new nylon carpet.
