It is safe to leave even small children to play in a room trimmed with carpet. Moreover, carpet is rather cheap and easy to install.

Though the choice of various types of carpets is very wide, one should keep in mind that its price depends on technology of its manufacturing, fiber material and basis. In particular, caperts can be needlestitched, needled and woven; jute and latex based; polypropylene and polyamide fiber. For installing carpet covering in a standard flat, one needs a special adhesive, and the whole process of the installatin takes some hours. Carpet covering is often not attached to the floor at all.
