Needle-felt wall-to-wall carpet is a type of carpet that is made using a special technique called needle felting. In this process, synthetic fibers are mechanically entangled using barbed needles, creating a dense and durable carpet without the need for traditional backing material. Needle-felt carpets are known for their durability, stain resistance, and sound-absorbing properties. They are commonly used in commercial settings like offices, hotels, and public spaces due to their resilience and ability to withstand high foot traffic.

Types of Needle-Felt Carpets
The Needle-Felt carpet comprises four main subcategories:
- Punched
- Brocaded
- Embossed
- Printed
In the following sections, we delve into each type of needle-felt carpet:
Punched Needle-Felt Carpet
Needle-punched or Punched carpet is the most basic category of needle-felt carpets. It is crafted by applying pressure to the felt using large needles with a specific pattern. The following images will show you some punched carpets up close:
Brocaded Needle-Felt Carpet
A brocaded needle-felt carpet is created by adding a pattern to the felt through a brocading process. Below, we have provided two images of our brocaded carpet named Pardis:
Embossed Needle-Felt Carpet
An embossed needle-felt carpet is a type of wall-to-wall needle-felt carpet crafted by heating and pressuring felt with a specific pattern. It is somewhat similar to punched carpet, but instead of mere pressure, heat is applied. Here is an example of one of Zarif Carpets’ embossed carpets named Mahoor:
Printed Needle-Felt Carpet
A printed needle-felt carpet is the most renowned type of needle-felt carpets. This type features patterns or images printed on its surface. Take a look at the following images; they aim to show you how a printed carpet can look:
