Spanish term or phrase: pelo cortado
From a text about a project launched by a carpet manufacturing company in Argentina.

La alfombra presentó una textura de pelo cortado a dos alturas y una terminación de flecos de 40 cm de largo en todo el perímetro.
and
Las placas de pelo cortado eran modelo Pallas y las bouclé eran Olimpia; ambos productos cubren las exigencias requeridas para un uso de alto tránsito pues son alfombras tejidas en nylon al 100%.

Is it short-haired carpet? cut pile? short pile?

Thanks!!
