Introducing our comprehensive flooring guide: your ultimate resource for choosing, installing, and maintaining beautiful floors.
The British Royal Family has a long and rich history of patronising the finest carpets and textiles, which have adorned the halls and rooms of their palaces for centuries. From luxurious hand-knotted Persian rugs to the finest Axminster carpets, the Royal Family’s love for high-quality floor coverings has remained constant.
Carpet weaving has been a part of British culture for centuries. The earliest recorded evidence of carpet weaving in Britain dates back to the 14th century, when it was predominantly a cottage industry. However, it wasn’t until the 18th century that carpets became a status symbol for the wealthy and aristocratic.
During the reign of King George III in the late 18th century, the Royal Family began to actively promote British carpet weaving. The King himself was an avid supporter of the industry and commissioned several carpets for his palaces, most notably the Windsor Castle carpet. This carpet was created by Thomas Whitty, the founder of the Axminster Carpet Company, using a method he developed that revolutionized carpet weaving. The Windsor Castle carpet was made from a blend of wool and silk and featured a striking floral design in bright colours.
The Axminster Carpet Company continued to produce carpets for the Royal Family throughout the 19th century, with their carpets becoming synonymous with luxury and quality. The company’s carpets adorned the floors of Buckingham Palace, St James’s Palace, and Windsor Castle, among other royal residences.
In the early 20th century, the Scottish carpet manufacturer James Templeton & Co. became the preferred supplier of carpets to the Royal Family. The company’s carpets featured intricate designs and were known for their durability and longevity. One of their most notable commissions was the carpet for the Coronation of King George VI in 1937, which featured the Royal Coat of Arms and a border of Tudor roses.
In recent years, the Royal Family has continued to patronise British carpet manufacturers, with the current supplier being the Wilton Carpet Factory in Wiltshire. The factory has been producing carpets since the 17th century and is known for its traditional weaving techniques and high-quality materials.
One of the most significant carpets produced by Wilton is the Jubilee Carpet, created for the Queen’s Golden Jubilee in 2002. The carpet was made using a combination of wool and silk and featured a design inspired by the Queen’s personal emblem, the cipher EIIR. The Jubilee Carpet was displayed in Westminster Abbey during the Golden Jubilee celebrations and later moved to Buckingham Palace.
In conclusion, the history of British carpets in the Royal Family and their palaces is one of luxury, quality, and innovation. From the early days of carpet weaving to the present day, the Royal Family has played a significant role in promoting and supporting the British carpet industry, ensuring that the tradition of producing high-quality carpets continues to thrive.

Sustainable carpet and flooring are becoming increasingly popular in the modern era, as more people are becoming conscious of their environmental impact. The production, installation, and disposal of traditional carpet and flooring can have negative consequences for the environment. Therefore, it is essential to consider sustainable options that minimise environmental impact while still providing the desired functionality and aesthetic appeal.
1. Recycled Carpet:
Recycled carpet is a great choice for those who are looking for a sustainable option. This type of carpet is made from recycled materials such as plastic bottles and other synthetic fibres. Recycled carpet not only reduces waste but also helps to conserve natural resources. Moreover, it can be recycled again after its useful life, further reducing the environmental impact.
2. Wool Carpet:
Wool carpet is another eco-friendly option. Wool is a natural fibre that is sustainable, biodegradable, and renewable. It is also non-toxic and does not release harmful chemicals into the air, making it ideal for those who suffer from allergies or asthma. Wool carpet is also highly durable, and with proper maintenance, it can last for years.
3. Carpet Waste
Carpet waste is 100% recycled and does not end up in landfill, instead we repurpose it for horse bedding, providing a comfortable and sustainable option for our equine friends.
4. Vehicles
We are introducing electric vans to our fleet which produce zero emissions, making them a more environmentally-friendly option compared to traditional combustion engine vehicles. They also tend to have lower operating costs and require less maintenance.
As we welcome the arrival of Spring, it’s time to give our homes a fresh new look. One simple way to update the look of any room is by changing up the carpets. This year, Spring trends are all about adding pops of colour and pattern to uplift the mood and bring a sense of joy to our living spaces.
When it comes to colours, Spring 2023 is all about embracing bold and bright hues. From cheerful yellows and warm oranges to soothing blues and calming greens, there’s a colour to suit every style and taste. Adding a colourful carpet to your home can instantly brighten up any room and make it feel more lively and inviting.
In terms of patterns, Spring 2023 is all about geometric shapes, abstract designs, and floral motifs. These patterns add a touch of sophistication and modernity to any room. They are also versatile and can work well in a variety of design styles, from minimalist to maximalist.
To make the most of the Spring trends, consider pairing a bold coloured carpet with a neutral wall or adding a patterned carpet to a room with solid-coloured furniture. The key is to find the right balance between colours and patterns, so the room doesn’t feel overwhelming.
Whether you’re looking to update your living room, bedroom, or even your home office, Spring 2023 offers plenty of opportunities to add a fresh new look to your space. So why not bring some Spring joy into your home with a colourful and patterned carpet or flooring?
