Ulster Carpets – Manufacturers of the finest axminster & wilton carpets since 1938.
Ulster Carpets have long held a reputation for the highest quality and most luxurious carpets in the market place. Over the years, Ulster has vowed to uphold this reputation by focusing on design, innovation and the pursuit of excellence. Although a global player in the world of carpet, the business remains family owned and generations of skilled local craftsmen and women have proudly woven Ulster carpet at the original Castleisland site in County Armagh.
It is the dedication of the people at Ulster combined with the commitment to local manufacturing which ensures only the finest carpets bear the Ulster name. Every part of the manufacturing process is managed within the UK, from the processing of the wool at Ulster Yarns (Dewsbury), through to dyeing, weaving and finishing at Castleisland. This level of control results in the unrivalled quality of an Ulster Carpet.
A superior floor covering is not just defined by quality manufacturing but also exceptional design. Ulster’s Kidderminster based design team translate their creative talents into producing stunning carpet ranges and colourways which appeal to every taste.

New Range
Terræn
Ulster Carpets is unveiling terræn, a stylish new Danish-inspired cut and loop collection.
The six designs in terræn are a reflection of familiar surfaces found in both urban and rural settings, from concrete castings to forest floors – this range is all about creating pattern with texture.
The three urban textures – Berg, Lenke and Ryg – explore designs from sources as varied as angled shadows and light from urban architecture, sculpted concrete surfaces, and the more familiar hounds tooth design from furnishing and fashion.
In contrast the three more organic designs – Oska, Frond and Nömad – reflect dappled shade through branches of trees, sprays of grass or slender branches of new buds in a gentle breeze, and again a design familiar in furnishing and fashion – a flowing paisley motif reminiscent of henna painting.
All six designs within terræn resonate with the places we live in and our surrounding environment. And because the range is plain, it is perfect for modern, calm interiors and as a foil to statement pieces.
Terræn offers a restrained, neutral colour palette with four colourways – Grå, Krem, Kaffe and Granit.
