In high-traffic areas, dense loop pile carpet made of durable nylon is preferred. This provides much higher durability that is suitable for heavy commercial areas.

For low-activity spaces like living rooms or bedrooms, try a soft, plush carpet.

Carpet tiles may be used in high traffic applications where a stained or damaged tile can be easily replaced.
