Stanton carpet: a designer's guide to the line, the fibers and where it belongs
Stanton carpet is decorative broadloom from Stanton Carpet Corporation, a family-run company founded in 1980 and based in Woodbury, New York, and the line is built for pattern: plaids, animal prints, geometrics and textures in woven, Wilton, flatweave and hand-loomed constructions. It is for the designer who wants a stair runner, an entry or a study to carry pattern without ordering a custom weave. Interiors carries 282 Stanton styles, 280 broadloom and 2 area rugs, on the Stanton brand page, with complimentary samples for approved trade accounts.
The mill
Stanton Carpet Corporation is privately held and family-run, and it sells only through flooring dealers and design showrooms. It is also a family of brands: Antrim (acquired 2007), Rosecore (2010), Crescent (2016), Hibernia (2017) and Cavan (2021) ship through the same Calhoun, Georgia distribution center, and Stanton Rug Company (2023) has its own page here for ready-to-ship Stanton rugs. What this guide covers is the Stanton-branded broadloom, which sits at the decorative, high-style end of the market.
What we carry
Of the 282 styles, 101 are machine woven, 58 tufted, 41 Wilton, 34 flatweave, 29 hand-loomed and 3 hand-tufted. Woven and Wilton constructions lock the pattern into the backing, which is why a Stanton plaid stays crisp over a stair nosing where a tufted print would blur. By fiber, 112 styles are polypropylene, 66 wool blend, 53 polyester, 24 wool, 13 nylon and 11 sisal, jute and seagrass. That mix is why a Stanton plaid carpet, a Stanton animal print and a Stanton wool carpet can serve very different briefs: the polypropylene styles are solution-dyed and built for cleanability, the wool and wool blends wear the way wool should.
Widths are mostly 13 ft 2 in (194 styles), with 15 ft (33), 12 ft (16) and 13 ft (11). By pattern, 59 styles are geometrics, 53 textures, 52 abstract and modern, 46 solids and 21 animal prints. Custom rug is available on 280 styles, and 36 are rated for indoor and outdoor use.
Collections to know
The largest Stanton collection we carry is Pet Guard, 30 styles built for cleanability. Stanton Sisal has 15, Hibernia 9, Wool Studio 8, the Paradise Collection 7, the Bella Collection and Tides 6 each, Wiltrex and Hollywood 5 each, the Enchanted Collection and Vue 4 each, Expressions 3, and Clarity, Galaxy and Atelier Vertex 2 each. Styles to know include Accra, Adler, Alberta, Allegory, Amur and Arabesque.
Where it belongs
Stanton carpet runners and stair runners are a large part of what we spec from this mill. On a stair, choose a machine woven, Wilton or flatweave style: the pattern holds at the nosing and the flatweave wraps cleanly. In an entry or a hall, the geometrics and small plaids hide tracking. A study or a library takes an animal print or a bold geometric as the room's one strong move. The polypropylene and Pet Guard styles go where dogs, children and spills are a given: family rooms, playrooms, rentals and the 36 indoor-and-outdoor styles on a covered porch. The wool and wool blend styles, and the hand-loomed group, are the living room and bedroom carpets. Keep polyester to bedrooms and low-traffic rooms, where its softness is the point and crush is not a risk.
Custom rugs and runners
Any Stanton style can be cut and bound into a runner or custom-size rug through our Design Studio, and the catalog marks 280 of the 282 as custom rug available. Stanton custom rugs and Stanton stair runners are routine orders: send us the room or the stair count and tread width and we will draw it and quote it net. For ready-to-ship Stanton rugs, see the Stanton Rug Co page.

Questions designers ask
Is Stanton carpet good quality?
Stanton is a good-quality decorative mill. Woven and Wilton constructions hold pattern on stairs; Pet Guard and polypropylene styles are built for cleanability; the wool styles wear the way wool should. Match construction to traffic and fiber to the room, and sample first: a soft polyester plush belongs in a bedroom, not a mudroom.
Is Stanton carpet high end?
Yes. Stanton sells only through flooring dealers and design showrooms, and the line sits at the decorative, high-style end of the broadloom market. Its strength is pattern and texture rather than plain solids, which is why it shows up so often on stairs, entries and studies.
How much does Stanton carpet cost?
Stanton sits in the mid-to-upper range for decorative broadloom. Net pricing is quoted to approved trade accounts; we do not publish Stanton carpet prices. Cost is driven by fiber, polypropylene lowest and wool highest, by construction, hand-loomed and Wilton above machine woven and tufted, and by width.
Where is Stanton carpet manufactured?
The company is based in Woodbury, New York, and its brands ship from a distribution center in Calhoun, Georgia; the mill of origin varies by style. Ask us for the spec sheet on the specific style you are considering and we will confirm where it is made.
Where can I buy Stanton carpet?
Through Stanton dealers and trade showrooms such as Interiors. We carry 282 Stanton styles for interior design professionals, with the library on the floor in the Laguna Design Center, and we ship and install nationwide. Stanton carpet samples ship from the mill to your office.
Can Stanton carpet be made into a rug or stair runner?
Yes. Custom rug is available on 280 styles, cut and bound through our Design Studio, and Stanton stair runners are among the most common orders we place with the mill. Choose a machine woven, Wilton or flatweave style for the stair.
Is a patterned Stanton carpet going to look dated?
Not if it is used as the room's one strong move. Small-scale geometrics, plaids and animal prints on a stair, in an entry or in a study have been the designer's standard for decades and remain so. The risk is scale: keep large patterns to large rooms and let the stair runner carry the small one.
