How are Halınet carpets cleaned?

It depends on the carpet type. Washable carpets can be machine washed on a low spin cycle. Traditionally woven carpets should be cleaned by a professional carpet washing service. Vintage and handwoven carpets should be wiped with a damp cloth and never washed in water.

Which carpet suits which room?

Classic or modern patterns work well in living rooms, soft chenille/cotton carpets in bedrooms, washable carpets in kids' rooms, and washable non-slip carpets in kitchens. For hallways, long narrow runner styles are recommended.

How do I choose the right carpet size?

Standard sizes based on room dimensions: 80×150 cm (small), 120×180 cm (medium), 160×230 cm (large), 200×290 cm (living room), 240×340 cm (large living room). Add about 30 cm of margin around the area your furniture will sit on.

How do shipping and returns work?

Free worldwide shipping. Orders ship within 1-3 business days after confirmation. You can return within 14 days for any reason, no questions asked. The carpet must be unused and in its original packaging.

Dust-Free Carpet Models and Prices

Many people worry when their new rug’s dustbin fills up after the first vacuuming. In most cases, this isn’t because the rug is faulty, but because cut pile fibers from manufacturing remain within the weave. These residual fibers surface during the first few weeks, after which shedding significantly decreases.

The first three to four weeks with a new rug

In cut-pile production, yarn ends are trimmed with scissors; the short remnants from this cutting cannot be entirely removed at the factory and will work their way to the surface with use. Therefore, vacuuming a new rug more frequently during the first few weeks, using low suction and with the brush roll turned off, will speed up this process. Shaking the rug outdoors during this period also helps; fibers dislodged by impact won’t wait for the vacuum. If you’re still seeing clumps of fibers after the fourth week, the situation is different, and you should contact us; our 12-month manufacturer warranty is specifically for these types of situations.

Which surfaces shed less

Short pile: As the fiber length shortens, the free length that can break off decreases.
Heat-set yarn: Heat-setting the twist delays the unraveling and fraying of the fiber.
Looped surface: Since the loop ends are not cut, the number of free ends is low; this is usually the lowest-shedding group in this collection.
Polypropylene and polyester: These machine-woven yarns shed less than short-staple natural fibers.

Don’t confuse shedding with wear

Shedding is when fibers detach and come out of the rug, and it decreases over time. Wear, on the other hand, is when fibers remain in place but become crushed, flattened, and dull; it increases over time. The two progress in opposite directions. If a new rug releases a lot of fibers, this is shedding and is temporary; if, after two years, the main traffic path is flattened and shiny, this is wear and will not revert on its own. Rotating your rug 180 degrees once a year delays the concentration of wear in a single area.

No rug is truly shed-free

The honest answer is: no textile surface is completely shed-free. The 7,700+ models on this page feature surfaces selected to have low shedding; they are not a product group guaranteed to be zero-shed. A rug shedding its own fibers and a rug trapping external dust are also separate issues; if you’re interested in the latter, the anti-allergenic rugs page is a more suitable starting point.
