Microtuft pile construction

Tessera Strukur 1 is a very low profile, loop pile carpet tile which replicates the look, feel and durability of a traditional flatwoven textile.

Different from a standard tufted loop pile carpet tile, microtuft loops are very low and sit tight on the surface of the tile, giving a very robust, heardwearing textile floor solution.

The low profile of microtuft carpet tiles does mean that visible edges are a characteristic of this style of carpet tile construction, and extra care should be taken during installation to ensure an optimal finish and to minimise the appearance of visible edges.
