Does wool carpet burn?

Wool Carpets & Natural Fibres · Historic BCC Q&A archive

Wool carpet is naturally flame resistant and self-extinguishing when the flame source is removed. If it does burn, wool tends to burn slowly with limited smoke and leaves grey ash. This makes wool a relatively safe option for homes. Under extreme conditions any fibre can burn, so maintain fire safety measures and avoid direct flames or heat near carpets.
