Werner Braun, President of the Carpet and Rug Institute, Discusses Recent Consumer Research

September 10, 2008—Now that CRI consumer research results are in, Werner Braun and Kemp Harr discuss what consumers think of carpet versus other flooring products.  Listen to the interview to hear that carpet is still preferred for its value, comfort underfoot and acoustical benefits but has major misperceptions in the area of maintenance and health issues (dust and allergies).
