Spanish term or phrase: Moqueta hilos
Among the services / accessories offered exhibitors for their stands at a trade fair. For the UK.

Was looking at thread/threaded carpet but that doesn´t seem to be the term used. Then I thought about 'woven' but that's 'tejido'.

How about deep-pile. Shag-pile was the popular term in the 70s, but you might want to avoid that one!
