When you’re shopping for a carpet tile, you won’t just have to think about the size, color, and overall design that you want. You’ll also need to think about which carpet tile texture is best for your project.

Different Carpet Tile Textures

The texture of a carpet plays an important role in that carpet’s durability, feel, and overall performance.

Plush

A plush or shag carpet is soft to the touch and soft underfoot. The long pile height that’s often ½- to ¾-inch adds plenty of shock absorption and cushion that makes plush carpet supremely comfortable.

Crochet

A crochet carpet has a distinctive textured look. These carpets tend to be highly decorative and often feature bold patterns.

Crocheted carpets tend to feature lower pile heights. Carpets designed with a tighter weave are usually more durable than carpets with a larger, looser weave.

Frieze

Frieze carpet features tightly twisted fibers that look a lot like hook and loop strips. The fibers appear to be kinked, which adds body to the carpet.

A frieze carpet offers a comfortable feel and is highly durable. This type of carpet is ideal for areas that receive lots of foot traffic.

Berber

Berber carpets are made with thick loops of fibers, instead of individual fiber strands. The fibers are tightly woven and have a low pile height, which makes the carpet highly durable.

Berber carpets are often neutral toned, but their dense weave helps to prevent spills from soaking down and staining the fibers. These carpets are ideal for high-traffic areas.
