Top Hand Made Carpet Manufacturers in Iran

The art of carpet weaving is one of the oldest and most authentic arts among Iranians. As the oldest carpet in the world is considered to be an Iranian work belonging to the Achaemenid period. The point is that this art is also original and every day it finds its way among different nations and cultures. The beauty of the design and role is one of the main factors in the durability of this art. Iranian artists have turned the Iranian carpet into a unique work by observing the beauty points in the text and border of the carpet.

The carpet industry in Iran is a mixture of art, creativity, and the manifestation of the national culture of Iranians, which throughout history has shone as a shining gem on the culture and art of this land.

In general, the carpets of Tabriz, Qom, Kashan, and northern areas of Iran are considered the most popular Iranian carpets.
The history of woven carpets in Tabriz dates back to the Safavid period, and Tabriz’s woven carpets are among the most finely woven Iranian carpets. The raw material of Tabriz’s carpet is often Natural silk carpet yarn.

The height of the pile in Kashan woven carpets is average, and the carpets of this line are textured and delicate. Previously, the colors of the carpets of this line were formed by sharp colors with high contrast. But according to the taste of the customer and the market, soft colors are used in the texture of the carpets. The common patterns of Kashan rugs and carpets are mixed decorative patterns. The colors of Kashan rugs and carpets can be considered ivory white, gray, brown, and tobacco colors.

The carpet weaving industry is popular among the nomads and villagers of Qom. But gradually, according to this industry in trade, it became popular among other parts of this province as well. At first, Qom carpets entered the market with not fine threads, but gradually, Qom artists with ingenuity and taste started weaving very fine and orderly carpets. The elegance and order of Qom’s hand-woven carpets are so great that the viewer might think that these carpets are machine-woven.

Handwoven carpets can be introduced to the world as one of the main items of non-oil products of Iran, which has faced a sharp and unbelievable decline in recent years, which caused the carpet weaving industry to experience a special recession.

According to statistics, the largest amount of Iranian carpets happened in 1373. This year, Iran will leave a stunning statistic to other parts of the world by recording a record of 2 billion and 132 million dollars from the discovery of handwoven carpets.
The value of this statistic becomes more clear when you realize that this year nearly 44% of Iran’s total non-oil production took place only with carpets and it created something like 5 to 7 million new jobs.

Iran Carpet Company was established in 1935 by a decree of the then government, following the dissolution of the “Eastern Carpet Manufacturing Company”, which was a non-Iranian property.
the transfer of the company laid a sound foundation for the operations of the Iran Carpet Company from the very outset to the extent that today (2019) this company backed by over 80 years of valuable professional experience, inherited from Iranian skillful workers, from those eras is regarded as one of the most unique producers of carpet in the world, entrusted with the task of preserving the worthiness of Iranian past heritage and keeping alive the art and craft of carpet weaving in Iran.

One of the major objectives of Iran Carpet Company has been to obtain high-class raw materials and ensure their proper use in the carpets manufactured under its auspices. This objective materialized in 1954, when factories were established in the city of Karaj, for the production of quality raw materials, needed by the country’s carpet industry.

With nearly 50 years of experience, they produce the best quality wool balls and offer such services as sorting, washing, spinning and dying in conformity with the highest standards in Iran and throughout the world.

Given the carefully-observed weaving criteria of Iran Carpet Company, the most outstanding features of the products of this company may be summarized as follows:
1- The wool used in the carpets made by this company is a homogeneous ivory spring wool of grade 1 category and of the finest make. The washing, dying and spinning units of Karaj factories transform this wool into yarns, used in the production of the carpet.
2- The wool purchased by the company, which is chosen from the highest quality stock, are sorted out into various categories, according to their usage and in terms of the physical properties of the wool, such as its curl, length and micron. These are the factors that guarantee the durability and steadfastness of the carpets, made by Iran Carpet Company.
3- To make the carpet pile more resistance against wear and tear, the wool yarns used in the company’s carpets are entirely two-ply with the extra ply meant to increase the pile’s resistance and make it more wear-proof.
4- Dying process in Iran Carpet Company is inspired by traditional practices. All the dyes used in the company’s carpets are obtained from plant or animal sources, including in particular madder roots, walnut shell, pomegranate rind, vine leaves, cochineal (reddish bead) with black dried curd and soured yogurt used as auxiliary substances for better absorption of the dyes. Carpets, in which natural dyes have been used, usually have a longer durability and obtain special vividness and beauty with the passage of time, hence acquiring greater value steadily.
5- Yarns used in Iran Carpet Company are mothproof and will remain so as long as the carpet is in existence.
6- Cotton threads used in warps and wefts of the carpets produced by Iran Carpet Company are of pure cotton spun in 3 plies with a circular finish. Furthermore, in order to make the threads more resistant and durable, they are wetted before being put on spinning machine.
7- All the weft threads used in the company’s carpets are dyed in blue before use, so that when washed the carpet will not shrink widthwise. Moreover, this coloring procedure will give the carpet special glamour, when it is aged. Warps and wefts of the company’s carpets are absolutely free from artificial yarns.

With the most experienced pattern drawers and carpet dyers at its disposal, Iran Carpet Company runs the largest carpet designing unit in Iran, supported by a skilled workforce of over 40.
