Today I received the six requested samples and I wish to thank you for the very prompt response as well as the useful size of the samples which has made it very easy to make my selection. I will be visiting my local stockist this week (at Dockray trading estate in Kendal) to make arrangements for a purchase, which, thanks to you, will be a speedy process

I just spotted it on a stand as I was looking at other carpets in carpets direct, Wellfield road, Cardiff. It was a really nice way to see a quick selection of a colour scheme rather than flicking through a huge pile of samples! I’ll look forward to seeing the sample,

Hello – You have recently sent me two sets of samples, and I just wanted to express my appreciation of your excellent service and also your beautiful carpets ! We require in the region of 60sq.m, so our choice had to be the right one, and the samples have enabled us to do this, finally making a decision on colour and design, and saving us from trawling through endless carpet stores. We shall be placing our order in due course, and again, my many thanks. Kind regards Zoe

shame about that, the cambric flax carpet in the dining room was was fitted 10 years ago and is still in perfect condition – we were trying to replace the lounge carpet with the same, this is as well as fitting a new FW71 in the hall (it matches the stair and landing -again no wear showing, at all!). thursbys in sunderland are a great help and im sure we will find something suitable.

Kind regards

Mood Board Windows

Posted on August 10, 2015 by chris

Our loyal customers here at Adam Carpets continue to amaze us with their inventive window displays. This month we have A J Rogers of Bromley (below) and Wordsley Carpets of Wordsley (above) with their use of our Mood Boards in their windows.

We would like to thank Rogers and Wordsley for sending us these images. Good window displays can make a massive impact on your businesses and attract customers into your store.

This month we received an email from Louise (end user) regarding the mood boards:

“I just spotted it as I was looking at other carpets in Cardiff. It was a really nice way to see a quick selection of a colour scheme rather than flicking through a huge pile of samples!”

A few days later we received a message from the retailer that an order had been taken on the back of the customer using the boards.

Always great to get feedback, good or bad, from retailers and end users.

Continued Investment By Adam Carpets

Posted on August 10, 2015 by chris

Adam Carpets have announced that they will be purchasing a brand new beaming machine as part of their continued investment at their factory in Kidderminster.

This represents a continued commitment to manufacturing all of our own products at the Greenhill Works plant.

Managing Director, Chris Adam, explained “Last year saw the company invest in the two new boilers for the dye house, which extended our capacity to dye our own plain colours well into the future. This years increase in sales means that to continue to meet the needs of our customers we will be purchasing a brand new Beaming machine to increase our production rate and meet our lead time targets.”

This new machine is being built by a bespoke manufacturer in America and will be in place in time for the Autumn peak period. Adam Carpets are one of a very select number of companies around the world that use Beams. The major advantage of them is stock control and the ability to react quickly to demand.

Establishing our Green Credentials and Commitment

Posted on August 10, 2015 by chris

Here at Adam Carpets we are working towards a cleaner environment. We are also members of the Enco Environmental Network.

Enco and its member are committed to the goals of reducing waste, improving energy efficiency, effective use of raw materials, minimising environmental impact and compliance with environmental legislation.

Over the last twelve months, we have installed new energy efficient boilers in our dye house which has reduced our fuel usage. We have also put in place new methods to take heat out of the dye house vats for use elsewhere in the factory. We have also ensured that as much of our waste as possible is recycled. All of our waste yarn, cardboard tubes, plastic cones are all sold on to recycling companies to be used in other projects.

Going forward we are looking at other opportunities to reduce our carbon footprint and continue to invest in greener production methods.

Adam Carpets have been voted ‘Best UK Flooring Manufacturer 2015′ by the readers of Interiors Monthly magazine.

The message we have taken from retailers who voted for us is that from design through to dyeing, production, sales, despatch and transport, the whole company is working together sucessfully to deliver the highest standard of product and service to our retail customers. In return, our message to retailers is that we will continue to strive to do even better.”

This is the second year in a row that Adam Carpets have been recognised at the Interior Monthly awards after they won the ‘Outstanding Performance’ category last year.

“These awards mean a lot to us and show we are doing the right things” Eamonn continued, “we have also been voted in the top three carpet suppliers at the last two Flooring One awards. It is great that our retail customers give us this type of reward.”

A Unique Adam Carpets Window

Posted on August 3, 2015 by chris

Barnes Flooring, Bishops Stortford

A big thank you to Barnes Flooring of Bishops Stortford for this ingenious window display utilising several rages from Adam Carpets.

We can spot two of the new Fine Worcester Twist colours, Belbroughton Blue and Stildon Sky.

Castlemead Velvet Stripe aptly named, High Seas, is also visible in the sail and we can see some Catherine Powder Blue in the sea. The hull is made from Fine Worcester Twist, Elmbridge Ecru.

There is also some, again well named, Inspirations Mariner in the sail to.

Absolutely brilliant!
