Abstract
Carpets having a primary backing and a pile consisting essentially of polyamide fibers stitched into the primary backing are described. The fibers are characterized in being stain resistant and the backing is characterized in being impervious to water. The carpet is easy to maintain since its fibers are stain resistant and water can be used to clean the carpet without fear of the water penetrating the backing and being absorbed by the padding, a situation which leads to rotting of the carpet and wooden floors.
