They differ in fibre blend, pile weight and use category, so compare the named range and sample rather than applying one warranty or cleaning rule to the brand.<\/p><\/div><\/header><div style=\"max-width:860px;padding:24px;margin:0 auto;font-size:17px;line-height:1.75\"><section style=\"margin:34px 0\"><h2 style=\"font-size:27px;line-height:1.23\">Carlton wool blend and construction<\/h2><p>Penthouse lists Carlton as 80% wool, 10% nylon and 10% polyester meltbond, a twist pile with jute backing, supplied in 4 m and 5 m widths.<\/p><p>The maker lists 36 oz and 42 oz variants and different tog\/use values; identify which variant a quote uses.<\/p><\/section><section style=\"margin:34px 0\"><h2 style=\"font-size:27px;line-height:1.23\">Colorado and Crofter are different<\/h2><p>Colorado is listed as an 80% wool, 10% polypropylene and 10% polyester meltbond twist, with 45 oz and 55 oz variants. Crofter cut pile uses 80% wool, 15% polypropylene and 5% meltbond.<\/p><p>Crofter Loop is a separate collection. Product family, weight and backing must be checked before making a performance comparison.<\/p><\/section><section style=\"margin:34px 0\"><h2 style=\"font-size:27px;line-height:1.23\">Match pile construction to the household<\/h2><p>A wool-rich twist, flecked Berber and loop carpet create different textures and may respond differently to footfall, pet claws and furniture. Check the exact manufacturer&#8217;s room rating.<\/p><p>View physical samples under natural and artificial light; directional pile shading can affect appearance after installation.<\/p><\/section><section style=\"margin:34px 0\"><h2 style=\"font-size:27px;line-height:1.23\">Width and stairs determine purchased material<\/h2><p>Select between available roll widths after considering room dimensions, pile direction, seams and possible offcut reuse. A staircase needs separate tread, riser, winder and landing measurements.<\/p><p>Include underlay, thresholds, fitting, removal and waste disposal in the whole installed cost rather than comparing only the material price.<\/p><\/section><section style=\"margin:34px 0\"><h2 style=\"font-size:27px;line-height:1.23\">Tog and heating must be calculated together<\/h2><p>Penthouse lists weight-dependent carpet tog values; for example, the Carlton ranges include 1.1 and 1.2. Underlay adds to the total thermal resistance.<\/p><p>Confirm combined carpet\/underlay values with the underfloor-heating supplier. A wool label alone does not determine heating efficiency.<\/p><\/section><section style=\"margin:34px 0\"><h2 style=\"font-size:27px;line-height:1.23\">Maintain the carpet and protect warranty conditions<\/h2><p>Wool-rich blends require manufacturer-specific cleaning instructions. Do not assume bleach is approved merely because another retailer advertises easy-clean synthetic flooring.<\/p><p>Penthouse notes that dye batches and some widths may vary in appearance. Keep the ordered colour\/weight\/width, sample and written warranty together.<\/p><\/section><nav style=\"margin:32px 0;padding:22px;background:#f4f1eb\"><h2>Explore Penthouse Carpets<\/h2><ul><li><a href=\"https:\/\/floordesigns.co.uk\/falkirk-shop\/flooring-brands\/penthouse-carpets\/\">Brand overview<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/floordesigns.co.uk\/falkirk-shop\/product-guides\/penthouse-carlton-colorado-crofter-carpet-guide\/\">Product and fitting guide<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/floordesigns.co.uk\/falkirk-shop\/q-and-a\/penthouse-wool-carpets-questions-answered\/\">Questions and answers<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><aside style=\"padding:24px;background:#f7f3f5;border-left:4px solid #ac105a\"><h2>Advice from FloorDesigns Falkirk<\/h2><p>Bring the room details and selected product to arrange an accurate quote.
