• Loop is ideal for the areas that experiences high foot traffic

• Cut and loop is a softer option. It has cut yarn as well as loops of several heights making them ideal for lesser-used rooms or bedrooms.

• Cut pile plush is a lush option which has equally cut yarns giving it an even and smooth appearance but making it more susceptible to showing foot marks and vacuum tracks. It is great to install plush carpets in lesser used or more formal areas.

• Cut pile twist is more resilient than plush. As yarn is twisted pile sits in various directions. It even has fewer track marks.

• Shag is hard wearing and it feels heavenly underfoot. The pile of the carpet is long cut and sits in different directions.
