The Story of the Red Carpet
“They rolled out the red carpet for you, you became a man in this game,” said Gökhan Özen…
Carpets, which are the subject of songs, have become an indispensable part of our palaces, castles, houses and apartments for centuries. They have survived all these years because they have constantly renewed themselves. Carpets, which are indispensable in flooring, were laid on tiles, ceramics and even wooden parquet floors, thinking that they would be more stylish.
Carpets spread to the world as a culture in Anatolia. Our mothers and sisters worked their loves, passions and fears into carpets on wooden looms for years. They wove their fears of running away from home and their fears of their fathers into carpets. They wove carpets with their hands and tears.
The carpets became fairy tales and flew, the carpets became prestige, they were dyed red and very long and thin… and they carried the statesmen and many celebrities on their backs… They not only warmed our homes, but also matched our every surface with their varieties and colors.
Carpets that have not only decorated our floors but also our walls, as they say, have been our source of so much pain for so many years. It may be hard to believe, but the first evidence that sheep wool was used to weave carpets dates back to 6000 BC.

Marco Polo returned from his travels with richly decorative carpets from India, Iran and other places. As the history of carpets continues, let's examine the clues below on how to use this object, which is still indispensable today.
Little secrets
Dark lines give a sense of warmth and warmth, while light or neutral tones give a sense of light and spaciousness. Even the last line on the floor contributes to this effect. Polish and shine add a sense of infinity, while light and matte have the opposite effect. A stronger color may be perfect for a smaller space, but the same may be too strong for a larger one.
Function of the room
It may not always be possible to use the same flooring throughout the house, and this can be boring. When choosing floors, it is generally successful to maintain the same tone range. When choosing your carpet, it would be right to decide according to how much sunlight the room gets, its purpose of use, and the color of the walls and furniture you use.
Regular maintenance
Today's carpet pile is designed to hide dust and reflect light, and it also has the ability to resist dust and stains. Dust on carpet is not as visible as it is on hard surface flooring, where the dust remains on the surface and is easily seen. The ability of today's carpet pile to hide dust is a positive feature for many consumers. However, the absence of visible dust does not eliminate the need for regular cleaning.
Many dry dusts have sharp edges that cause the carpet fibers to reflect light differently, giving the carpet a dull appearance. Dust, if allowed to accumulate, will continually wear away the fibers. A regular maintenance program will extend the life and appearance of your carpet. Specific maintenance information can be obtained from your carpet retailer, carpet manufacturer or yarn manufacturer by calling their toll-free number.
Basic vacuuming
It is a good practice to vacuum the areas that get the most traffic more frequently, such as hallways, stairwells, exterior entryways and areas where people walk around with shoes on. Vacuum the entire carpeted area at least twice a week, it is very important to remove dust while it is still on the surface, this will prevent dust from being thoroughly embedded into the carpet by foot traffic.
It is more difficult and time-consuming to remove embedded dust than surface dust. To remove surface dust, push the vacuum cleaner forward in a slow motion in the direction of the hairs and then repeat in the opposite direction. Embedded dust is best removed by slow sweeping in the opposite direction.
Choosing a broom
For maximum effect, use a vacuum cleaner with adjustable and rotating brushes that can pick up surface dust and a powerful airflow that can remove any particles that get inside. Your vacuum cleaner should have a closed, high filter bag that will prevent particles from re-mixing into the air. Regardless of the brand, check that your machine is working regularly for the best cleaning results.
Keep brushes clean and replace when worn. Keep vacuum hoses and attachments free of anything that could block air circulation. Protect the tip of the brush from hard objects that could damage the carpet. Check that the belts are working properly. Always have a spare belt on hand. Follow the vacuum manufacturer's instructions. And replace the vacuum bag when it is more than half full, as the bag becomes less effective when it is completely full.
Clean it yourself
Do-it-yourself cleaning can be an economical choice for professional cleaning. For any carpet cleaning job, the following points should be noted: Always pre-vacuum to remove as much dry dust as possible.
Pay attention to the instructions
When choosing the Wet Cleaning method, the following points should be taken into consideration:
Before you start cleaning, empty the room of furniture; if this is impossible, put plastic under the legs of chairs, tables and other furniture to prevent rust and dirt.
Use only recommended strength cleaning solution. A stronger one than recommended will provide faster cleaning. To avoid this, rinse out all detergent. Do not over-wet the carpet. Over-wetting can cause seam separation, discoloration, shrinkage and odor.
