There's a good reason why carpet is one of the most highly sought-after floorings. However, you may wonder if you can still have it if you have allergies.
The answer is a resounding yes–and that's been proven repeatedly by science.
Carpets act as an air filter
That's the first thing you should know. While vacuuming is great, it gets mainly the surface dirt.
The rest gets trapped in fibers until the rug is deep cleaned. That means they don't circulate in the air for you to breathe!
Some fibers and styles with hypoallergenic properties
When you go into the carpet store, you'll find various fibers and styles. We have two excellent choices:
Nylon and olefin (polypropylene, two synthetic fibers, repel mold and mildew. Unfortunately, these substances trigger runny eyes, coughing, wheezing, and itchiness.
Nylon does something else. It causes pollen to dry out, struggle and eventually flop.
The best style for allergy sufferers
Low-pile rugs are best because they don't shed fibers–they are short and tight.
Low-pile rugs like Chivalry by Pentz are also the easiest to keep clean.

As a final note: Choose a rug with low or no, VOCs
Most rugs today don’t emit VOCs. Volatile Organic Compounds are harmful gasses emitted during a manufacturing process. They contain chemicals that create eye, nose, and throat irritations, as well as headaches and a host of other problems.
