Cut Pile

Frieze cut pile

Loop Pile
In case of loop pile carpets the pile is not cut and the loops are left as they are when woven. The loops can be even in height as in the case of a regular loop pile or they can be un-even. In case of un-even loops or a multi-level loop, alternate loops are of the same height. In some cases, the height of the loops may vary at three levels. This helps in giving a better durability, a pattern effect and a more casual look to the carpet.
