Finding comfort in chaos CARPET'S BENEFITS GARNER INTEREST

摘要

Comfort, warmth, sound abatement and design - carpet has it all. And it was these benefits in particular that met the demands of those consumers who were forced to turn their homes into workspaces and schools due to COVID-19. "Kids were going to school virtually, parents were on teleconference calls constantly and the end result was much needed noise abatement and comfort under foot for work and play," noted Joe Young, soft surface category manager at Engineered Floors. "Whether it be home offices or extra space for the kids to play without disturbing the rest of the household, carpet became a go-to in order to provide a more welcoming atmosphere that made the pandemic home life more tolerable for everyone."
