THE ORIGINAL LOW
MELT YARN
Woolbond ™ is the result of Thomas Carr's continuous programme
of research and development into maximum performance fibres and enhanced
spinning techniques. The inner strength of Thomas Carr's unique Woolbond
™ system is activated by heat which is applied in the final
processing stages permanently fusing the fibres into a mesh throughout
the yarn. |
THE REWARD OF RESEARCH
Ninety years of dedicated commitment have resulted in a reputation
for quality that is envied world-wide. Situated in the traditional
heart of the wool spinning industry Thomas Carr jealously protect
their reputation by spending more on yarn development and apprenticeship
training than almost any other carpet and furnishing yarn spinner
in the world. This, combined with the strictest quality control, ensures
that all carpets made with a Thomas Carr yarn give excellent value
and customer satisfaction |

FOR EXCEPTIONAL CARPET
PERFORMANCE
Woolbond ™ adds strength and clearer definition to each individual
tuft as well as reducing unsightly shedding of fluff. Woolbond™
also improves underfoot resilience and resistance to crushing and
contributes to the long term good looks of your carpet. Take a close
look at a carpet with the unique Woolbond ™ process and notice
its crisp appearance and depth of colour. |

SPUN FROM THE BEST
OF RAW MATERIALS
All yarns produced at Carr's spinning plants, both in Yorkshire and
in Australia, are wool rich. Wool is specified for the toughest wear
and most elegant locations from palaces to prestigious hotels as well
as smart comfortable homes. But not any wool will do.
Only pure new wool that is clean, long, resilient and sound is set
aside for use in a Carr yarn.
In addition, Carr's wool undergoes no less than seven separate criteria
assessments before it is finally accepted for spinning into Woolbond
™ yarn. |

|
UNCOMPROMISING QUALITY
Once selected, Carr's wool is gently but thoroughly washed and scoured
to remove any residual oil or dirt and then blended to provide an
exact mix of fibres with the right length, diameter and crimp for
the specific texture of yarn and the precise style of carpet. Then,
and only then, is it spun into the length and thickness required for
making some of the finest carpets available in the shops today. |

AN EXCLUSIVE PARTNERSHIP
Developed by Thomas Carr with the active involvement of the most prestigious
carpet manufacturers, Woolbond™ yarns are now found in some

THE MOST BEAUTIFUL
COLOURS
The deep. clear colours that typify a Carr yarn, can only be achieved
through the total dying of each of the thousands of individual fibres
before blending or by totaly immersing the yarn in a dye bath once
it has been spun. The colours in Carr yarns are dyed throughout, making
them especially sought after for beautiful clear pastel and heather
shades and the subtle rich tones that are the perogative of only the
highest quality carpets.
