ABSTRACT:
A floor mat and method of making same to be used in vehicles or as a passageway carpet that is characterized by having several areas of different tufting densities and thus of different resistances to wear. The method of the invention is accomplished by selectively feeding and non-feeding selected needles of a tufting machine of conventional construction. Machinery to bond the nap to the backing web and to apply a thermoplastic anti-skid lining is modified to accommodate the uneven napping densities and prevent irregular conveying of the carpet roll through the various processing stations.
