Different types of carpets produced by
carpet manufacturers

When   it comes to carpets, the carpet manufacturers generally use loop pile, cut   pile or combine both the types to create attractive carpets. However, apart   from these, manufacturers produce many other types of carpets as well. We   will have a look of some other types which you can choose to stand apart from   the rest.

Plush Pile-

These types of carpets have a soft, velvet type appearance and an   upright finish that provides it with a formal look. They are also known as   velour or velvet carpets. These types of carpets are ideal for use in   offices. However, remember that plush pile carpets clearly display the   tracking marks caused because of vacuuming and footprints. As a result, they   are not recommended for high traffic areas.

Saxony-

Another type of carpet produced by the carpet manufacturers is   Saxony. They are known for their rich, smooth look which is somewhat similar   to that of the plush pile. However, the major difference between both is the   fact that the pile height in saxony carpets is higher and more twisted as   compared to plush pile. Like plush pile carpets, they too, display the   tracking caused due to vacuuming and footprints.

Freeze-

They are known for their shaggy appearance and are generally   recommended for homes due to their less formal appearance. They have a deep   texture due to their long piles that lay in different directions. Moreover,   the carpet manufacturers can custom design this type of carpet for you with   thick or thin as well as short and long pile. They are normally used at hoes,   but not that commonly in offices.

Sisal-

Sisal carpets are a slightly different version of loop pile   carpets. They have loop piles that are textured are arranged in neat rows.   They are available in many different textures and patterns. The height of   their loop can vary depending on the textures and patterns.

Berber-

The carpet manufacturers use thicker piles of loop or creating   berber type of carpets. They are generally made in neutral shades, however,   accents of different colors are also used to add a twist. They are highly   recommended for areas that witness heavy traffic as their hard wearing   created with flecks does an excellent job of hiding soil and footprints.   Moreover, they can also be made in cut pile.

If you are planning to buy a new carpet or want to replace the   existing one, the above mentioned carpet types can be perfect to add a unique   character to any room. However, make sure that you consult a professional   before you buy them as every carpet cannot be used in any part of   house.
