Kaleen
Mill
Kaleen carpet and Luxe by Kaleen rugs for the trade
Kaleen is a family-owned mill, founded in 1971 by Shivkishan Rathi and still run by the Rathi family, with three weaving plants in India and its U.S. office and distribution center in Dalton, Georgia. Interiors carries 220 Kaleen styles: 205 broadloom and the 15 Luxe by Kaleen rugs, every one made to order and shipped from the mill, with complimentary samples for approved trade accounts.
Fibers are wool (123 styles), wool blend (66) and PET polyester (31). Constructions are machine woven (161), hand-loomed (17), hand-tufted (11) and hand-knotted (5). Roll widths are 15 ft (101 styles) and 13 ft 2 in (102), with a number of styles also woven at 16 ft 4 in for wide rooms without a seam. Any Kaleen broadloom can be cut and bound into a custom rug or stair runner through our Design Studio.
Collections
Kaleen broadloom is organized in four lines. Kaleen (220 styles) is the core wool and wool-blend decorative broadloom. Hook & Beam (59), launched in 2020, is the machine-made broadloom division, jacquard loomed and circular knit wool in textures and patterns, the most specified for stairs and family rooms. PureLife (36), launched in 2019, is the all-natural wool line: ethically sourced wool with every component, dyes to glue, responsibly sourced, marketed as non-toxic and hypoallergenic. Home and Porch (29), launched in 2023, is the indoor-outdoor performance line woven from 100 percent recycled PET polyester, stain resistant and UV stabilized, for covered patios, mudrooms and beach houses. Luxe by Kaleen (15) is the premium hand-knotted and hand-loomed rug brand, launched in 2020, woven to order in standard sizes. Styles to know include Altamaha, Artemis, Beacon Hill, Cambridge, Carnoustie and Enchantment.
Is Kaleen a good carpet brand?
Kaleen is a good choice when a project needs a wool broadloom at a sensible price and a wide roll. The mill weaves its own goods, which keeps dye lots consistent, and the Hook & Beam and PureLife lines compete with wool carpet from mills that cost considerably more.
Is Kaleen carpet wool?
Most of it. 189 of the 220 Kaleen styles we carry are wool or a wool blend; the Home and Porch line is PET polyester for outdoor use.
