Carpet: Cut Pile Carpet
Cut pile carpet is the term used to describe carpet in which the loops at the tips of the yarn have been sheared off, creating a level cut. A cut pile carpet is typically a velvet or plush carpeting that works best for residential carpeting purposes. Plush and velvet carpets have a little twist at the top of the yarn, making it much softer than other styles of carpeting.
Cut pile carpet is a great carpet to install anywhere, whether in a hallway or a bedroom. The luxury and style of a cut pile carpet outweighs any other for decorative chic. The color and resilience of a plush or velvet carpet can change the look of any room, making it into a comfortable haven.
Loop Pile or Cut Pile Carpet
If you have trouble deciding between loop pile or cut pile carpeting, you dont have to agonize over your decision. You can have it all! Carpeting that is manufactured with both styles creates a more textured appearance. This style of carpet is usually termed a shag or tip-sheared carpet. Shag carpeting is making a big comeback in the style scene because of its versatility and comfort.
The advantage of a shag carpet is the combination of a luxurious, plush appearance with the durability of the Berber style. This makes maintenance much easier and less expensive. Shag carpeting can also be made into area rugs to complement your decor. With shag carpeting, you get the best of both worlds.
