As Cormar Carpet Company celebrates 70 years in business, the past year marks not only a major milestone in the company’s history but another period of achievement.
From continued industry recognition to significant sustainability progress, Cormar continues to lead the way in British carpet manufacturing.
Cormar was voted Best Carpet Manufacturer by Interiors Monthly readers for the 13th consecutive year, reinforcing its reputation as a trusted industry leader. Further success followed at the Livingetc Style Awards, where Silken Serenity was awarded Best Carpet, highlighting the company’s ability to combine on-trend aesthetics with exceptional performance.
Cormar was also honoured with Large Business of the Year at the GMCC Excellence Awards, recognising not only product quality but the strength, resilience and contribution of the business within the regional economy.
Sustainability has remained firmly at the forefront of Cormar’s strategy, with the company becoming the first major carpet manufacturer to secure full certification from Innovate Recycle for its polypropylene ranges, now recognised as 100% recyclable and awarded Tuft Accreditation.
This achievement has already delivered measurable impact, with more than 342tonnes
of Cormar’s carpets processed by Innovate Recycle in 2025. By working closely with industry partners and refining production efficiencies at its Lancashire mills, Cormar continues to reduce its environmental impact while maintaining the quality its customers expect.
Innovation remains central to the company’s growth, with ongoing product development throughout the year ensuring Cormar continues to meet evolving consumer preferences. The relaunch of popular ranges including Natural Berber Twist and Primo Naturals has been met with strong demand, reaffirming their enduring appeal among homeowners
and retailers. Alongside these refreshed favourites, the introduction of Silken Serenity
last year brought a new level of softness and understated elegance to the portfolio, quickly establishing itself as a standout addition to the collection. Reaching 70 years
is a significant milestone, one built on family values, British manufacturing excellence
and a steadfast commitment to customers. While Cormar proudly honours its heritage,
it continues to look forward with ambition and confidence.
‘We extend a heartfelt thanks to our customers, suppliers and dedicated employees
for their continued support. As the company celebrates seven decades of success, it remains focused on delivering quality, service, reliability and innovation for many years
to come,’ says David Cormack, Cormar Carpet Company marketing director.
