A floor covering produced through a manufacturing process where yarns are punched through a primary backing material. This process creates loops or cut piles on the surface, resulting in the texture and design of the finished product. An example of this type of floor covering is a solid-color area rug frequently found in residential living rooms and bedrooms.
This method of production offers advantages such as efficiency and design versatility. The resulting products provide warmth, cushioning, and aesthetic appeal to interior spaces. Historically, its development marked a significant shift in the textile industry, enabling mass production of floor coverings previously made primarily by hand.
