Hand tufted rugs and carpets involve a technique whereby tufts of yarn are inserted into a prewoven material by a needle. The inserted yarn may be left uncut to form loop pile, sliced to form cut pile or produced as a combination of both. The backing is coated with a natural rubber latex to lock the pile in place. A second non skid backing is added for increased strength and stability.
Hand crafted rugs and carpets involves the process of precisely cutting and joining together machine made carpets to form basic designs. Hand crafted rugs may be handbacked, creating the appearance of a hand tufted rug. The second non skid backing also serves to increases strength and stability.
