Abstract:
Founded in 1971, The Carpet and Rug Institute (CRI) has long recognized that the key to a successful carpet industry is service to the many stakeholders and their varied needs. From the homeowner to the tufting operator, the impacts of carpet are distinct and beneficial. As the concept of sustainability has developed, the carpet industry has remained at the forefront of sustainable thought and action. Sustainable actions involve many different factors but can be easily delineated. The activities undertaken to create the carpet can be referred to as “preconsumer,” while activities relating to the sustainability of carpet in use can be referred to as “postconsumer.” The carpet industry and CRI have taken many steps to ensure the sustainability of carpet in both sectors.

Abstract:
MDI based, CFC free, moulded polyurethane foam floor pan carpet composites are in production world wide. They will play an increasingly important role as a versatile and economic solution to the reduction of interior vehicle noise. This paper reviews current processing experience with ICI all-MDI acoustic foam systems and describes some of the results of the acoustic development programme which has been underway for the past two years. Simple model representations for airborne and structure borne noises are presented and analysed. A laboratory test rig is described which is used for the evaluation of the airborne noise and vibration radiated noise Insertion Loss of non-bonded carpet composites. Data are presented showing how system and material design parameters affect acoustic performance. Analysis of data shows that performance is controlled primarily by system parameters, namely area mass of heavy layer and thickness of foam isolating core. It is shown that control of foam properties such as density, stiffness, and clamping can be used to optimise system performance for a vehicle having a particular noise and vibration signature.

Abstract:
Weaving is an example of art produced at the end of human need. The samples produced because they were needed first turned into art. It is not known exactly whether the art of weaving started as a carpet or as examples of plain weaving, rug weaving. Throughout history, carpet and rug weaving has developed in connection with each other. Rug weaving samples, which have an important place in Turkish culture, are accepted as source information about the period they were woven and the geography they were woven. Looking at kilim weaving examples, patterns are given with threads of different colors and different weaving techniques are used. Unlike carpet weaving, there is no pile height in weaving. The motifs used in the patterns are generally traditional motifs. Geometric motifs are used more frequently. In rug weaving, unlike carpet weaving, the threads are mostly twisted. Rug weaving samples found in the inventory records in the Niğde museum show that the rug weaving tradition is as old as carpet weaving in Niğde and its surroundings. The aim of this study is to share the information obtained as a written source on the general condition, pattern and color composition properties of the weaving samples in the exhibition hall and warehouse in the museum.

Abstract:
The Carpet Baggers, which carries various Persian carpets, is both advertising its product while trying to educate consumers about the competition's pricing scheme. Use the information in this advertisement to answer the following questions. Cost refers to what a store pays to buy a carpet from the manufacturer, which is the same as the wholesale cost. The retail price refers to the amount the customer has to pay. Assume that the wholesale cost is the same for products from both The Carpet Baggers and all its competitors.

Abstract:
Past readings of Aeschylus’ Agamemnon (458 BC) have spawned numerous theories about the nature and significance of the cloth stage prop central to the ‘Carpet Scene’ (783-974). Kenneth Morrell has pointed out that ‘recent critics at best emphasize the ambiguous nature of the “fabric” ’, which the critics refer to variously as something carpet-like, as rugs or blankets, as garment-like tapestries or loosely-fitting garments, as draperies, and more generally as the household's treasure. But what fabric, if any, would have been versatile enough to function as a tapestry, a robe, and a blanket, and would have inspired outrage when used as a rug?More symbolically significant than the most luxurious carpet, the fabric strewn on the ground before Agamemnon strongly suggests a bridal cloth, an object replete with symbolism, which would have served as both a nuptial robe and a coverlet for the marriage bed. Scholars who discuss Athenian weddings in the context of the Oresteia have overlooked the nuptial nuances of the ‘carpet’.

Abstract:
Between October 1984 and January 1985, the largest outbreak of Kawasaki syndrome reported to date in the continental United States (62 cases) occurred in the Front Range of the Rocky Mountains, extending from Colorado Springs, Colorado, to Cheyenne, Wyoming. Fifty-two (84%) of these Kawasaki syndrome patients lived in the Denver metropolitan area. A case-control study revealed that 16 (62%) of 26 Kawasaki syndrome patients compared with 10 (20%) of 49 matched control subjects had a history of exposure to shampooed (19%) or spot-cleaned (81%) rugs or carpets within 30 days of the Kawasaki syndrome onset date (odds ratio = 5, P < .01). The time of exposure to shampooed or spot-cleaned rugs or carpets for 9 of 10 Kawasaki syndrome patients who had a single exposure and for all 6 Kawasaki syndrome patients who had multiple exposures were clustered within an interval 13 to 30 days before the onset of illness. Although the reason for this unusually large outbreak remains obscure, it is the third in which a statistically significant association between Kawasaki syndrome and rug or carpet cleaning has been found.

Abstract:
Countries with scarce resources should specialize in industries in which they are more productive. The carpet industry is an industry where Turkey is at the top of the list in exports. The woven and tufted carpet industry has a large part of the world carpet trade. The aim of this study is to analyze the competitiveness of Turkey in the weaving and tufted carpet industries and to compare it with China, Belgium and India. As a result of the study, Turkey has a comparative advantage in the weaving and tufted carpet sector. It has a comparative advantage in both sectors in Belgium and India. However, China's comparative advantage is not found in both sectors.

Abstract:
The art of carpet weaving is an area of culture which development traces back to a century-old tradition in the countries of the East. This industry has survived to present day and plays a significant role for the economies of Central Asia and Iran, making up a large share of their export supplies. The scientists from different countries study the history of carpet weaving goods in the context of their cultural and artistic peculiarities: ornaments, signs, symbols, etc. However, this industry is primary considered as a source of creating objects of decorative and applied art. Only a few researchers address the current economic problems of the industry, in particular, the issues of labour organization and working conditions.
 Technology and organization of handmade carpet making and working conditions of craftsmen in Afghanistan have not changed much for many centuries: one carpet is created within 2-4 months by backbreaking work of a group of 3-5 Afghan craftswomen. The industry faces significant competition from cheap artificial carpets from Pakistan. Experts note a drop in the export potential of carpet weaving in Afghanistan, and some even talk about the problem of fading of the ancient craft traditions in the country. These circumstances determined the relevance of the topic.
 The article describes the findings of the fieldwork-based research devoted to investigating the impact of a healthy working environment on the carpet weaving industry growth. The aim of this study is to identify the factors affecting a healthy working environment and establish the correlation between them on the example of carpet weaving industry.
 The findings are the results of the survey conducted in all carpet weaving companies in the Akchakh district of Jawzjan province in northern Afghanistan. This rural region has an ancient tradition of carpet weaving.
