Er gaat niets boven de hoge kwaliteit van een geweven Axminster

Axminster is een traditioneel geweven tapijt met een uniek weefproces. Al onze Axminster tapijten worden geweven met een 2-draads garen, een combinatie van 80% Britse & Nieuw-Zeelandse wol en 20% Polyamide. De samenstelling van het garen zorgt ervoor dat het tapijt ongelooflijk slijtvast en sterk is.

Handmade Rugs

De mogelijkheden in ontwerp en uitstraling zijn eindeloos bij onze handgetufte karpetten. Alleen het beste is goed genoeg, dus we gebruiken uitsluitend de meest luxe en duurzame garens: natuurlijk linnen, wol uit Nieuw-Zeeland en eucalyptusgaren (Tencel™). Duurzaamheid staat voorop, dus ieder karpet maken we op maat, waarbij we alle materialen optimaal gebruiken.

Sustainability and circular economy

Since its inception, sustainability has been, in addition to design, an important pillar on which Donkersloot rests. We believe in the circular economy. That is not a dream for the future, but the new reality. In which we complete the circle, preserve raw materials and reuse products. This is about value creation and preservation of value.

Carpet can become top of mind again

When it comes to interior design, the choice of flooring can have a significant impact on the atmosphere, comfort and functionality of a space.

Textiles are important for society and the economy

An interesting article in Branchebeeld from the opinion magazine Forum about the textile industry. In this edition, the chairman of Modint, Sylvia Roelofs. Modint represents the Dutch textile and clothing industry.

Behind the scenes

When developing carpet, the process is just as crucial as the end product. Every new creative expression, whether it's our website, collection campaign, or product design, starts with a spark of inspiration. We get that inspiration from everywhere. From small everyday things to architecture and the fashion and music world.

MaterialDistrict, an inspiring event

Today was already MaterialDistrict's last trading day at the Werkspoor Cathedral in Utrecht. The event that is always busy and where exhibitors show (material) innovations is one of the most inspiring fairs if you ask us. This annual fair is therefore one of our favorites, to exhibit and walk around.
