Axminster Carpets

Axminster Carpets are made in the town of Axminster, England. By using the original Axminster weaving process, they are made mostly from natural fibres made in Britain and they are ravishingly, stunningly beautiful.

Because some aspects of the Axminster manufacturing process cannot be patented, there are other carpet manufacturers who can make ‘Axminsters’, but they are not the same as the trademarked British product. Axminsters are natural, British and beautiful, often 100% wool, jute backed, and in many cases made on eight pitch looms, the ultimate in quality, unique to the Axminster Carpets company.

Axminster Carpets is able to produce a wide range of specifications to meet the budgets and needs of each individual client, and those selecting an 8 pitch specification have the opportunity to develop their own designs with truly remarkable clarity and quality. Axminster is the only manufacturer with a UKAS accredited laboratory in-house. << Back to previous section
