Carpet tiles and products include a structured backing layer having a plurality of holes arranged therethrough. The holes may be sized and arranged over the backing layer to impart the desired properties to the carpet product. For example, the holes preferably are sized and arranged to be effective to mitigate moisture from a flooring installation and/or to alleviate manufacturing tensions in the carpet tile. Methods of manufacturing such carpet tiles and products, as well as methods of using such tiles and products to mitigate moisture and/or alleviate manufacturing tensions, are also provided. In one aspect, carpet tiles include a structured backing layer and a face fabric associated with the structured backing layer. The structured backing layer may include a plurality of holes extending across a thickness of the structured backing layer. The holes may each extend from one surface of the structured backing layer to the opposite surface of the structured backing layer, thereby creating passages therethrough.

Yarns for carpet. Carpets; carpet padding; carpet underlay; carpet backing; self-renewing, odor-destroying carpet treatment sold as a component of carpeting.
A lightweight carpet product includes a greige carpet having a primary backing and tufted fibers, a secondary backing including a nonwoven textile of synthetic fibers, and a thermoplastic adhesive composition adhered to the greige carpet and the secondary backing. The thermoplastic adhesive composition includes a modified polyethylene terephthalate (PET) having a crystallinity less than unmodified PET and a melting point from about 90 °C to about 150 °C, and a particulate filler. Methods of manufacture include using a thermoplastic adhesive composition to adhere a greige carpet to a secondary backing to form a lightweight carpet product.
