BEHIND THE BRAND

Ulster Carpets was founded by

George Walter Wilson in Northern

Ireland in 1938 and is still privately

owned by the founder's family.

Ulster has taken the positive

attributes associated with being a

family business and combined them

with a forward thinking, global

approach to business. The result is a

technologically advanced, service

driven company with flair, flexibility

and a passion for quality...

MANUFACTURING IN THE UK & IRELAND SINCE 1938

It is the dedication of the people at Ulster combined with the commitment to local manufacturing which ensures

only the finest carpets bear the Ulster name. Every part of the manufacturing process is managed within the UK,

from the processing of the wool at Ulster Yarns (Dewsbury), through to dyeing, weaving and finishing at

Castleisland. This level of control results in the unrivalled quality of an Ulster Carpet.
