Why does wool carpet fluff up?

Wool Carpets & Natural Fibres · Historic BCC Q&A archive

Wool carpets can fluff for several reasons: natural fibre shedding, loose fibres trapped during manufacture, high foot traffic, and vacuuming with beater bars can lift fibres. To manage fluffing, vacuum with a suction-only setting on wool carpets, expect some initial shedding to occur, and avoid harsh cleaning methods. If fluffing persists, a professional cleaning every 12–18 months may help. Wool carpets are durable and the slight fuzz is characteristic rather than a fault. Always check the carpet’s care instructions and consult the Taren Point showroom for tailored advice. For more help, call 02 9526 6421 or visit Unit 3/46 Bay Rd, Taren Point, NSW.
