Fine Worcester Twist has achieved a maximum LC5 score according to British Standards, which equates to a Luxury rating. It has also achieved a ‘5 crowns’ rating on European Standards, the maximum a carpet can achieve.

“We always knew that Fine Worcester Twist was a touch of class” said Eamonn Prescott, Sales Director at Adam Carpets. “This makes it official, Fine Worcester Twist is a luxury product.”

Fine Worcester Twist also achieved a Class 33 in commercial standards, giving it a ‘Heavy Commercial use’ rating.

“Too often you can see words such as Extra Heavy Domestic on the back of some samples” continued Eamonn, “However, a lot of the time they really don’t have anything to back that up in terms of testing. The tests and results that we put our carpets through will give confidence to our retailers about the ratings that we use.”

Adam Carpets will be launching two new ranges at this years Flooring Show in Harrogate. First up is Pure Brit Supreme. Following on from the successful launch of Pure Brit last year, we have decided to extend the offer with a new 55oz Wool Saxony/Twist in the same colours as the original Pure Brit.

Although still a twist, the yarn has been produced with less twist than the 40oz Pure Brit. This gives the carpet a fuller, denser, softer pile. The carpet though retains the characteristics of a twist pile carpet, that of appearance retention and durability.

The range also retains the green credentials of using undyed wool and a commitment to using British Farmers, British Spinners and of course us as a British Manufacturer.

The initial samples will start to be installed in retailers from the start of September.

We are also launching Flare at the show. This exciting new range is a ‘zig-zag’ design running down the carpet in ten stunning new colours. The range will be made using high quality 80/20 wool nylon, 2-ply yarn and will be available 4m wide.

The Flooring Show will also see more information on the collaboration between Adam Carpets and The Little Greene Paint Company. The stand will feature a display with the full 125 colours of Fine Worcester Twist and Castlemead Twist and the 375 paint colours that Little Greene have coordinated with them!

This colourful display is sure to be create an impression at the show, which may or may not be dominated by greys and beiges?!

Adam Carpets new wall units have become the focal point in the new revamped carpet department at Fenwicks of Newcastle. When this prestigious department store sought to modernise its flooring section, one of the first companies they approached was Adam Carpets.

We supplied ten of our updated units along with the first eight of our brand newly designed lecterns. These wall units and lecterns will both be on show at The Flooring Show in Harrogate.

Fenwicks is located on Northumberland Street in Newcastle and it is the busiest street outside of Oxford Street in London in terms of footfall. It is also the most expensive place to rent retail space outside of the capital in the UK.

Wall units included Fine Worcester, Castlemead Twist and Catherine
