Although it cannot provide the great design flexibility available in weaving, the pattern range is expanding due to technological innovation.
At the same time, the global market share of all woven carpets has decreased relatively, but a large number of wool is used in this field, which is still the main fiber for manufacturing high-quality machine-made carpets.
