Our Design Abilities & Facilities.
Carpet Design, CAD Simulations, Samples and Expertise
By offering the facility of having our own in-house designers with extensive experience and by using the latest design software any design element or concept can be turned into reality quickly and simply and returned electronically.
Once a design has been created this can be supplied effortlessly to the customer in print or e-mail format. Simulated carpet, flooded floor plans, samples or pegboards can then be provided for final selection prior to any production making the whole process quick and easy for any size project however complex.
Whether it is a simple or highly complicated pattern with the use of the latest design and simulation software we can generate either static design prints or flood out full room sets to show clients the impact of the final design and give visual appearance of the finished interior. By having the whole design process completed in-house we retain full control enabling a rapid response to any request.
Our Production Facilities.
Carpet production manufactured to the highest standards using state of the art machinery.
To achieve a consistently high quality product requires excellence in all areas; from the initial design, selection of high grade raw materials, weaving on modern well maintained looms, finishing to the highest possible industry standards and constant monitoring of all processes under strict quality policies and procedures from material procurement all the way through to final despatch.
Quality Standards & Certification.
Quality products start with quality standards, proceedures and technical ability.
Ensuring carpets meet the strict quality codes of manufacturing is only part of the total requirement as the carpet also needs to comply with the local building codes and regulations for safety and flammability. We not only offer help and assistance in selecting the right product but we can provide certificates for building management, installation advice and Cleaning and Maintenance recommendations for facilities management.

Why Choose Carpet ?
There are many reasons for choosing a carpet but here are a few key points why.
Aesthetics : unlimited design & colour creating visual impact to any location.
Comfort : carpet is soft to the touch and less tiring to walk on.
Acoustics : outstanding sound absorption material reducing background noise.
Safety : carpet is a non-slip product and has excellent flammability properties.
Luxury : carpet is comfortable, soft to the touch and less tiring to walk on.
Maintenance : carpet is easy to clean (wet & dry) and spills are localised.
Value : carpet is easily taken up and replaced when styles change.
Hard Flooring vs Carpet : Although perceived product resilience makes a hard floor surface initially appear to be the best value, research and life cycle costing has shown this not to be the case. The high initial purchase cost, installation charges, maintenance requirements, plus the cost of cleaning chemicals and finally the look and feel must be factored in to the total life span of the product. In fact, hard floor cleaning costs alone can be as much as 2.5 times the cost of a carpet, and the need for regular maintenance is detrimental to a busy area where 24 hour operation is required. A carpet has lower initial purchase and installation costs, requires less intensive maintenance and gives more comfort when walked on. Carpets can come in many forms, constructions and yarn types, so making the right selection of the right product can add complication, but an understanding of the main differences between each of the three main carpet types, Tufted, Printed and Axminsters, will ensure that the right product is specified to give the best solution.
