There are two types of carpets: Loop weaved carpets and Cut pile carpets. Today, both weaves are used together to create carpets with unique characteristics. The use of these weaves will determine the feel, softness and look of each carpet.
Loop piles have individual strands or fibers pulled through the carpet backing twice thus creating small loops which is what you will be walking on. Cut piles use a similar weave which is cut at the top, leaving tufts of fibers standing up.
Modern carpets may use several types creating a variety of geometric patterns, sculpted effects, color combinations and textures.
