Definitions

  • the inclusion in the tufted fibre layer of a synthetic monofilament yarn gives the mat good dirt removing properties, while the inclusion of a yarn having good moisture absorbing characteristics allows the mat to absorb water efficiently.
  • the twisted synthetic yarn gives the mat good particulate soil absorption and a smart and durable appearance.
  • the first yarn is a high twist nylon yarn and preferably a two ply yarn, the count of the first yarn being in the range 1000 to 5000 decitex, preferably approximately 1300 decitex.
  • High twist nylon yarn has been found to give the mat very good particulate soil absorption and a smart appearance.
  • the ratio of first yarn tufts to second yarn tufts in the fibre layer is in the range 1:1 to 6:1, preferably 3:1. These ratios have been found to give a good balance of properties: i.e., a good scraping effect, good moisture absorption, good particulate soil absorption and good appearance and durability.
