Loop carpet is loomed(manufactured) by pushing fibers through a backing material,
which forms a loop that shows on the face of the carpet. The material is then
passed through a machine that applies a coating to the back, which locks the fibers.
Cut pile carpet is made the same way, but one further step is made by shearing off the top.
Different backings, quality and thickness as well as the density of fibers
affect quality and cost.
