Axminster and Wilton woven carpet

Traditionally woven Axminster and Wilton carpets in 80% wool, 20% nylon blends, in plain tones and classic patterns. Woven carpet has the pile locked into the backing on the loom rather than tufted and glued, which gives it a dense, heavy feel and an exceptionally long life.

Why woven carpet is different

In an Axminster the pile is woven in with the backing as the pattern is formed, so intricate multi-colour designs stay crisp for decades. Wilton carpets are woven on a loop basis, giving a smooth velvet or textured finish in plain and tonal colours. Both are built to outlast conventional tufted carpets, which is why they are the standard in hotels, clubs and heritage homes.

Where Axminster and Wilton carpet belongs

  • Formal lounge and dining rooms that want a traditional patterned carpet.
  • Stairs and hallways in period homes, where a runner or full-width Wilton gives a classic look.
  • Hospitality fit-outs – restaurants, pubs, clubs, function rooms and hotel corridors.
  • Anywhere a plain wool-blend velvet is wanted in a long-wearing construction.

FAQs

What is the difference between Axminster and Wilton carpet?

Both are woven on a loom. Axminster weaves cut pile tufts into the backing as the pattern forms, so it suits multi-coloured designs. Wilton uses continuous yarns, giving plain or tonal velvets and textured loops.

Why is woven carpet more expensive?

The loom process is slower and the wool content is higher. In return you get a denser pile that keeps its appearance for 20 years or more in the right room.

Is 80/20 wool-nylon better than pure wool?

The 20% nylon adds abrasion resistance without losing the look and feel of wool, which is why it is the hospitality standard.

Can you do a patterned stair runner?

Yes. Axminster runners with borders are a classic choice for period staircases. We measure and fit them with proper nosings.

How long does a woven carpet order take?

Allow six to ten weeks for made-to-order designs. Some plain Wiltons are available faster; we confirm when we quote.
