Carpet Piles Explained
Twist Pile Carpet
Twist pile carpets are durable, easy to maintain, and have a smooth, clean finish – which is exactly why they’re so popular. The twisted fibres help hide footprints and furniture marks, making them a great choice for high-traffic areas and homes with kids or pets. (Click to see our range of Twist Pile Carpets)
Loop Pile Carpet
Loop pile carpets are tough and practical, which makes them well suited to hallways, stairs, landings, and other high-traffic areas. One thing to bear in mind, though: pets with claws – cats especially – can snag and pull the looped fibres, so they’re not always the best fit for homes with animals.

Woven Carpets
Woven carpets are made by weaving the fibres in and out through the backing, and they’re known for patterns that range from traditional to modern. They’re exceptionally durable and hard-wearing, but the slow, labour-intensive manufacturing process means they’re usually patterned and tend to cost more than a standard tufted carpet.
Saxony Carpets
Saxony carpets have a soft, deep, cut pile that feels wonderfully luxurious underfoot – though they do flatten easily and tend to show vacuum marks. They’re best kept to bedrooms and living rooms, where we’d recommend avoiding busier spots like hallways. (Click to see our range of Saxony Pile Carpets)
Gel Back Carpets
Gel back is a commercial-grade carpet built for high-demand settings like offices and shops, and it’s available in a range of qualities. It’s extremely hard-wearing, rot-proof, anti-static, and water-resistant, which makes it a versatile choice suited to any area – both domestic and commercial.
Berber Carpets
The name “Berber” originally came from the flecked appearance, which was inspired by the natural colouring of handwoven carpets made by the Amazigh (Berber) people of North Africa. Over time, the flooring industry adopted the term for carpets with a similar natural, speckled look—even though they’re completely different products. Available in both twist and loop pile designs, these hardwearing, and dirt disgusing carpets are great for high traffic areas. (Click to see our range of Berber style Carpets)
