Carpeting is a type of flooring consisting of woven fibers. It's often used in offices, homes, schools, and other settings to provide comfort and style. The history of carpeting dates back, with Egypt's oldest known carpet coming from the 4th century BC. They wove the first modern carpet in Persia and Ottoman Turkey in the 16th century. A carpet's main parts are a pile, usually made of animal hair but can be synthetic or man-made. Carpeting can come in different textures, patterns, colors, and thicknesses. It also comes with different warranties depending on the quality of the carpet. Carpets are perfect for home use because they provide warmth underfoot while still being easy to maintain.
