Axminster Carpets were first produced at Axminster in 1755. Since then the word Axminster has become world renowned for style, luxury and elegance. The groups tufting plant, in Newbridge has been producing carpet in Ireland for the past sixty years.
Inspiration for the designs, styles and innovative textures of our carpets are taken from the moors of Exmoor and Dartmoor, the countryside of Ireland and certain period styles including the Renaissance, the Arts & Crafts movement and the abstract animal and bird depictions from Ancient Turkish and Egyptian cultures.
All their carpets undergo rigourous testing at every stage. This coupled with the dedication and expertise of their workforce will ensure that not only will your carpet provide you with a life time of service, but will also provide you with warmth and comfort and provide the very basis of your decor scheme.
