How is 100% wool carpet fire resistant?

How is 100% wool carpet fire resistant?
Any New Zealander will tell you that Wool is an amazing natural fibre. Did you know a 100% wool carpet has high levels of fire resistance?
Carpet Call flooring stores sell a Hob Nob 100% Berber wool carpet which is naturally resistant to burning due to its high keratin protein and moisture content.
Fibres made of oil like Polyester carpet and Nylon carpet burn quickly and melt. Wool by comparison is very difficult to set alight and will only burn weakly if held over a flame. Wool will self-extinguish when the flame is removed. Wool fibre becomes a char which can be brushed away often leaving a textile completely unmarked.

With wool there is less chance of ignition, less likelihood of flames spreading and less smoke than synthetic fibres which makes it one of the safest materials. Drop into one of our Carpet Call carpet stores for more information on the fire resistance levels of 100% wool carpets.
