Modern style, a major advantage

 
Cut pile refers to how the fibers are cut, and that gives the rug texture, construction, and design. The pile can be high, making them plush, or low with tightly woven (looped) fibers. Some are a combination of both to create embedded patterns. High pile rugs include the shag or frieze; low pile rugs have short, tightly woven threads like the Berber. Saxony is neither high nor low; it’s either a straight cut pile, which makes it velvety and plush or highly patterned.

Practical benefits include

 
  • Reducing, or even eliminating, noise. A rug cushions the sound of footsteps, devices, and muffled voices. It also stops vibrations from bouncing all over floors and walls, creating echos. That’s why you often see a rug placed over a hard surface.


  • Providing thermal insulation. Unlike some floorings, carpeting doesn’t transfer heat or cold. It will hold on to whatever the room temperature is. The added benefit is that it conserves energy.


  • Increases safety. Rugs have excellent traction, which means people and pets can slow down or stop where they need to, such as at corners. That means they won’t skid into walls where they can hurt themselves. If they do fall, it’s a lot less painful on a soft surface than a hard one.


  • Ease health problems. Study after study shows that it improves indoor air quality. That’s because pollutants or particles don’t fly around in the air but rather get trapped into fibers where they’ll remain until deep cleaned. Vacuuming only gets surface dirt; to get anything embedded the fibers need to be scrubbed deeply, and only a professional can do that. Many warranties include clauses that rugs must be deep cleaned at certain intervals, or the protections will be voided.
