Member UpdateEducation Campaign

The Carpet Institute has embarked on a public education campaign to explain the functional benefits of using carpet
flooring and to encourage a positive approach to the use of carpet in interior design. The campaign utilises video and
static ads.

Campaign Videos

The campaign consists of a series of videos featuring interior designer Rochelle Morris, which have been published and
distributed to various target audiences on Facebook, Instagram, Linkedin and YouTube. The videos have had around
3 million impressions shown to people in Australia across all platforms.

The videos are continuing to run on these platforms and additional videos are in production. You can view all videos in
the series here. They are in longer and shorter formats and in some cases the longer version has been sliced into
smaller segments.

Life with a Toddler is …

Choosing carpet for good air quality

For allergy and asthma sufferers, the critical issue is the amount of dust and allergens present in the air. Interior
designer Rochelle Morris explains the health benefits of carpet and how a properly maintained carpet traps dust
particles within the carpet pile, removing them from the breathing zone.

Make your home safer with carpet

We all want our homes to be visually appealing, but we also want them to be safe and comfortable. Carpet has the
potential to give us the best of both worlds. All homes contain many hard surfaces and in our busy lives, falls can and
will happen. Not only does carpet cushion falls, it can also prevent them. Plus, it looks incredibly stylish.
