There is disclosed herein various floor coverings and methods for making the same. In one embodiment, there is disclosed a floor covering including a primary backing layer having a fibrous face and an underside, wherein the fibrous face is formed from a bulked continuous filament yam comprising a plurality of continuous filaments formed from a biobased polyhexamethylene sebacamide polymer or a blend of a biobased polyhexamethylene sebacamide polymer together with up to 80 wt % of at least one other polymer compatible with the biobased polyhexamethylene sebacamide polymer. There is also described a method of making a floor covering comprising: tufting or implanting a bulked continuous filament yarn into a primary backing material, wherein the yam comprises a plurality of continuous filaments formed from a multi-component fibre comprising a biobased polyhexamethylene sebacamide polymer or a blend of a biobased polyhexamethylene sebacamide polymer together with up to 80 wt % of at least one other polymer compatible with the biobased polyhexamethylene sebacamide polymer.
