Smooth (known as a Saxony)
- This style of cut pile carpet is achieved when the tufts
of yarn are sheared to a low, smooth pile height for uniform
color and a formal look.
Texture - This popular style offers a smooth, level
finish, but the yarns have more twist, which creates a
less formal look.
Twist (known as a Frieze) - The yarns in this style
are even longer, creating a soft, comfortable, casual
appearance.
Shag - The yarns in this style are even longer,
creating a soft, comfortable, casual appearance. |

Level Loop (often called
a Berber) - In this style, all the loops are the same
height. The dense, firm surface of a loop pile carpet
makes it ideal for high-traffic areas.
Patterned Loop - The yarns in this style are also
looped, but they are at two or three varying heights.
The various heights can be arranged to create a wide range
of patterns and textures. |
| |
Patterns - Pattern
carpets beautifully blend loops and cuts in varying heights
for dramatic, unique patterns, ranging from floral designs
to geometric to pin-dot. |
| |
Prints
- As the name suggests, these carpets feature a design
printed directly onto the carpet for a stylish, often
dramatic look. |
 |
When the loops are cut,
you create a cut pile carpet. |
 |
When the loops remain uncut,
you create a loop pile carpet. |
 |
When the loops remain uncut
and the loops have multiple heights, the result is a patterned
loop carpet. |
 |
When cuts and loops are
combined, you can create a wide range of patterns. |
