Types of Carpet Styles
There are many carpet styles, but each creates a different look and texture. Here are several common styles:
Cut Pile: This is made of carpet loops that have been cut to create individual, upstanding tips, creating a luxurious look and feel. Cut pile carpets are available in a wide variety of qualities and finishes such as Plush and Saxony.
Plush: This is a type of carpeting that generally has higher pile heights, and it is not as dense as Saxony.
Saxony: Saxony carpets have yarn tufts that are closely packed, presenting a smooth, luxurious surface.
Textured Carpets: These have curled or twisted tufts that make for a textured surface that helps mask footprints. Frieze is a type of textured carpet with highly twisted tufts that curl at the pile surface. These are especially suitable for higher traffic areas.
Level Loop: A simple loop pile with tufts of equal height, its durable construction makes it appropriate for high-traffic areas and informal rooms. Larger loops characterize the Berber style.
Sculptured Pile: This uses different lengths of pile to achieve varied surface levels. Rich surface texture and design characterize this type of carpeting.
