Alterna Tuscan Path vs Ben Vorlich Tartan Axminster Carpet | Wool Plaid: which is safer?

Where these two actually differ

• We flag Volatile organic compounds (VOC) and formaldehyde releasers, Phthalate plasticizers, Coating degradation and microplastic shedding and Moisture and mold risk if improperly installed on the Armstrong and not on the Axminster.
• We flag Formaldehyde and VOC off-gassing, Azo dyes and heavy metals in colorants, Dust and dust mite allergens and Moth and insect infestation risk on the Axminster and not on the Armstrong.
• The Armstrong is Vinyl composite flooring (VCT or similar) where the Axminster is wool plaid, Axminster weave, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
• These two are level, close enough that price and fit should decide it rather than our grade.
• We are less certain about the Armstrong grade, at 45% confidence against 72%, because it discloses less.
