Understanding Tufted Rugs
In this educational video, Bill Corridan explains what tufted rugs are, how they are made, and some of the common issues associated with them.
Unlike hand-knotted Oriental rugs, tufted rugs are constructed using a different manufacturing process that involves pushing yarn through a backing material and securing it with adhesives.
Over time, tufted rugs can develop certain problems such as backing deterioration, adhesive breakdown, buckling, rippling, or fiber shedding.
In this 5-minute video, you’ll learn how to identify these common issues and better understand how tufted rugs should be cared for.

Tufted rugs are not the same as hand-knotted rugs. Their construction methods, durability characteristics, and cleaning considerations can be very different from traditional Oriental rugs.
