Welcome to The Carpet and Rug Institute Blog, a place to discuss all things soft floor covering as well as a place to find the pulse of this great industry of ours. At CRI, we love to tell you about the things that are happening within our walls and within the boundaries of our industry and strive to be as transparent as possible.Obviously we love carpet. But even more important to us assuring that you - our consumers - are happy with the products you have purchased whether that be from a style and fashion perspective, or a functionality perspective.
We know people get information in a variety of ways and we also know that sometimes people don’t always get all the right information. When a question arises about any aspect or issue concerning carpet, we want you to feel like there is a place to find that answer, and that is the primary purpose of this blog.
We want to discuss issues such as indoor air quality and heath. We’ll be talking about installation and cleaning and maintenance. We’ll be sharing real life stories with you and interesting tips. And also our personal opinions. Mostly, though, we’ll be providing science-based data and insight culled either through research we’ve conducted or collected from other sources.
We want you to view the Carpet and Rug Institute Blog as a search engine for all things carpet; an encyclopedia complete with references; a warm and inviting place to come to much like a room full of comfy carpet.
Whether you are a homeowner, parent, or individual looking for carpet, a retailer trying to sell it, or a specifier in search of the product to install in your office building, we want to talk carpet with you.
Our policy on comments for this blog is pretty simple: if they are relevant to carpet we want to hear them. All we ask is that the comments are respectful. We will moderate comments, and reserve the right to exclude any offensive or irrelevant posts. In all honesty, though, we want to hear what you are thinking because it helps us just as we hope to help you.
Our promise is to be respectful of you and get back to you as soon as humanly possible with an answer. One thing we do want you to know is that CRI does not and will not participate in any endorsing of someone’s product be it carpet, padding, adhesives, cleaners, etc. We certainly have programs in place that identify categories of products that we recommend. If your question is about a particular carpet mill or a warranty issue, we’ll be happy to try to point you in the right direction, but those issues are usually out of our domain.
We also remind you to be mindful of posting personal information. The Carpet and Rug Institute Blog is a public forum, so if anything you put out there whether it be an address or a phone number, be mindful that any and all can see it.
We will not share any subscription information with outside parties. We may try to email you, though, for additional follow up. And, we may refer to your comments in subsequent blog posts.
Thank you for reading. We're excited about the opportunity to share with you a plethora of ideas, links, references, suggestions and opinions relating to carpet and rugs and how they can create a better environment for living, learning, working, and healing.
