Phraseology

Carpet or Rug Mfg. - NOC

Description

Code 2402 applies to employers engaged in manufacturing carpets and rugs made from synthetic material such as cotton, wool, nylon or polyester.  Pile yarn is sewn or woven together by machine.  Tufts are left in loop form or cut at the top with electric cutting devices, if cut pile carpeting is desired.  Tufts are then firmly attached to the backing by means of a rubberized latex compound.  In applying the latex to the backing, the carpet is passed on rollers over a vat of latex applying liquid as it rolls, then the carpet passes through a dryer to dry the latex.  Tufting machines, infrared dryers, electric cutting knives, looms and sewing machines may be used in these processes.    

This classification includes the operation of manufacturing nylon carpet pads made exclusively from fibers.
