ISO 11860:1999 PDF Download

ISO 11860:1999 is a specification for primary and secondary jute carpet backing textiles used in textile floor coverings. The standard assures that these fabrics meet quality and performance requirements.

The primary jute carpet backing materials are the layers of fabric that come into close contact with the carpet pile and offer a strong foundation for the carpet. Secondary jute carpet backing textiles, on the other hand, are employed as a reinforcement and stability layer.

The standard specifies dimensional stability, strength, durability, and resistance to moisture and chemicals as requirements for jute carpet backing textiles. It also includes guidance for testing procedures to assess whether the fabrics match these specifications.

ISO 11860:1999 compliance assures that jute carpet backing materials used in textile floor coverings are of good quality and fit for their intended purpose. The standard, by establishing a standardized specification, allows producers, suppliers, and customers to have a common understanding and reference point for the required properties of these fabrics.
