Adara carpet: a designer's guide to the line, the fibers and where it belongs
Adara carpet is natural-fiber broadloom from Adara Limited, a family-owned distributor founded around 1979 whose sisal and wool-blend goods come from a group of European weavers. It is for the designer who wants the texture of a woven natural floor, a sisal, a sisal-look wool blend or a flatweave, in a plain, a stripe, a herringbone or a small geometric, cut from the roll and installed wall to wall or bound into a rug. Interiors carries 18 Adara styles, all broadloom, on the Adara brand page, with complimentary samples for approved trade accounts shipped from the mill.
The mill
Adara Limited is a distributor rather than a weaver. The company was founded circa 1979, is family-owned into its third generation, and specializes in premium natural-fiber carpet and rugs that originate from European weavers. It has offices in the United States and distribution in Canada and the Netherlands. The line is edited: 18 styles, each chosen for the natural-fiber look, woven to European widths, which is why the rolls run to 13 ft 2 in, the 4-meter loom width, rather than 12 ft. We do not have the mill of origin for each style in our catalog; ask us for the spec sheet on a specific style.
What we carry
Of the 18 Adara styles, 12 are sisal, jute and seagrass and 6 are wool blend. By construction, 11 are flatweave and 7 are machine woven. A flatweave has no pile: the face is the weave itself, which is why a sisal or a flat wool reads as texture, lies thin at a threshold and wraps a stair cleanly. A machine-woven style has a pile locked into the backing on the loom, so the pattern is part of the structure and holds its edge where traffic turns. Sisal is a plant fiber, strong and sound-absorbing but not for wet rooms. The wool blends give the same woven look with wool's resilience and easier cleaning.
Roll widths are 13 ft 2 in on 12 styles, 13 ft on 3 and 12 ft 8 in on 1, and 2 styles can be special-ordered at 16 ft 4 in, the 5-meter width, for a large room without a seam. By pattern, 8 styles are textures, 5 geometrics, 2 herringbone and chevron, 2 stripes and 1 abstract and modern. Every Adara style is made to order and every one of the 18 is marked custom rug available.
Collections to know
Adara is organized by style rather than by named collection, so the brand page is the list. Sort it by fiber, the 12 naturals against the 6 wool blends, then by pattern: the 8 textures are the quiet floors; the herringbones, stripes and geometrics carry a hall or a stair on their own.
Where it belongs
Adara sisal belongs in a living room, a study, a library, a dining room or a bedroom in a dry climate, wall to wall or as a bound rug. It is the floor for a room with strong furniture, where the carpet should read as texture rather than color. Keep sisal out of kitchens, baths and mudrooms; a plant fiber does not forgive water. The wool-blend flatweaves and machine-woven styles go where sisal would struggle: a family room, a hall, a stair, a bedroom for a client who wants softness underfoot. On a stair, choose a flatweave or a machine-woven style; both hold the pattern at the nosing. The herringbones and stripes are the classic stair runner choices; run the stripe with the stair.
Custom rugs and runners
All 18 Adara styles are custom rug available. We cut and bind them through our Design Studio in the size the furniture plan needs, a runner for a hall or a stair, a 9 by 14 under a dining table, a wall-to-wall look with a border in a bedroom. Send us the room dimensions or the stair count and tread width and we will draw it and quote it net. A bound rug up to 13 ft 2 in needs no seam; for a larger piece, the two styles that come at 16 ft 4 in on special order are the answer.

Questions designers ask
Is Adara carpet good quality?
Yes, for what it is: edited natural-fiber broadloom from European weavers, chosen by a family company that has done only this since about 1979. Match the fiber to the room, sisal for dry rooms, wool blend where there is traffic or risk of spills, and sample first; a natural fiber varies more in tone than a dyed synthetic.
How much does Adara carpet cost?
Net pricing is quoted to approved trade accounts; we do not publish Adara carpet prices. Cost is driven by fiber, with the wool blends above the sisals, by construction, machine woven above flatweave, and by width, the 16 ft 4 in special-order goods above the standard 13 ft 2 in. Tell us the room and we will quote the two or three styles that fit.
Where is Adara carpet made?
Adara's goods originate from a group of European weavers, and the company itself is based in the United States with distribution in Canada and the Netherlands. The mill of origin is not recorded style by style in our catalog, so ask us for the spec sheet on the specific style you are considering and we will confirm where it is woven.
Where can I buy Adara carpet?
Through Adara dealers and trade showrooms such as Interiors. We carry all 18 Adara styles for interior design professionals, with the library on the floor in the Laguna Design Center, and we ship and install nationwide. Adara carpet samples ship from the mill to your office.
Can Adara carpet be made into a rug or stair runner?
Yes. Every Adara style is custom rug available, cut and bound through our Design Studio. For a stair runner, the flatweaves and machine-woven styles both hold at the nosing; choose a wool blend for a family stair and a sisal for a formal one that sees dry shoes.
Is sisal carpet practical for a client with pets?
Not as sisal; a plant fiber absorbs liquid and shows the mark. For the look with a dog in the house, specify one of the 6 Adara wool-blend styles instead; the weave reads the same from across the room and wool releases a stain that sisal would keep.
