Plush Carpets

Step into softness with the Plush Carpet Collection from Alternative Flooring—a luxurious range, available in sheer, stripe, or velvet that redefines synthetic flooring with elegance and ease. Crafted from 100% polyester and hand-tufted for a velvety finish, these carpets offer a subtle sheen and irresistibly smooth texture that’s both practical and indulgent.

Available in a myriad of refined tones—from Moonstone to White Jasper—each design is moth-resistant, stain-resistant, and compatible with underfloor heating, making it ideal for modern living. Whether laid wall-to-wall or styled as a bespoke rug or runner, Plush carpets bring a sense of calm sophistication to bedrooms, lounges, and boutique spaces alike.

This collection embodies Alternative Flooring’s signature blend of design-led innovation and everyday durability, proving that faux can be fabulously authentic.

What is Plush Sheer?

Plush Sheer is a luxurious carpet collection designed to bring a sense of softness, warmth and understated elegance to the home. It combines a beautifully smooth finish with a relaxed, design‑led aesthetic that is perfect for spaces where comfort is key.

Why choose Plush Sheer?

  • Ultra‑soft fibres that feel gentle and comforting underfoot
  • A refined, velvety texture with a subtle sheen for added depth
  • Carefully considered colours that sit effortlessly within modern interiors
  • Designed to enhance calm, cosy spaces without overwhelming the room
  • A luxurious look and feel that reflects Alternative Flooring’s relaxed approach to design

Plush Sheer is ideal for those who want their carpet to feel indulgent yet timeless, bringing everyday comfort with a quietly confident style.

Can I order a custom rug or runner in the Plush Sheer style?

Yes! The Plush Sheer collection is a favourite for our 'Make Me A Rug' bespoke service.

  • Tailored Luxury: You can take a colour like Moonstone or Pearl and have it cut to the exact size needed for your space, such as a luxurious "island" rug to sit under a bed.
  • Border Combinations: We recommend pairing a Plush Sheer rug with a single border (like our Cotton or Cotton Herringbone collections) to let the shimmering pile remain the star of the show.
  • Visualiser: Use our online Make Me A Rug designer to see exactly how your chosen Plush Sheer colour and border combination will look before placing your order.

Is the Plush Sheer collection easy to keep clean?

Yes. Despite its glamorous, delicate appearance, the polyester yarn is incredibly resilient.

  • Stain Resistance: Polyester is inherently hydrophobic, meaning it doesn't like to absorb liquids. This makes it naturally resistant to most common household spills.
  • Moth-Proof: Being a faux fibre, Plush Sheer is 100% moth-resistant. You get the look of luxury without the worry of pests.
  • Vacuuming Tip: We recommend using a suction-only vacuum cleaner. This protects the fibres from being over-agitated by a rotating brush. 

Can I use Plush Sheer with underfloor heating?

Absolutely. This collection is an excellent partner for modern heating systems.

  • Thermal Performance: With a TOG rating of approximately 1.47, Plush Sheer allows heat to rise effectively through the floor while providing a thick, insulating layer that stays warm long after the heating is turned off.
  • Comfort Factor: There is nothing quite like stepping onto a warm, deep pile carpet, rug or runner on a cold morning.
