Why jute backs the world's carpets
Jute has been the fibre of choice for carpet backing for generations because it is dimensionally stable, strong, affordable and holds the carpet's structure without stretching. In woven carpets it forms the backing weave; in tufted carpets, jute hessian is the primary backing that tufts are inserted through, and jute yarn features in secondary backings. Its stability under tension is exactly what a high-speed carpet line needs.
Consistency is everything on a carpet line
A carpet backing yarn that varies in count or twist causes tension problems, stoppages and visible defects downstream. We produce carpet-backing yarn to a consistent specification — count, ply and twist held steady from the first cone to the last — so it runs predictably on your looms and tufting machines, order after order.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is jute used for carpet backing?
Because it is dimensionally stable, strong and affordable, and holds a carpet's structure without stretching. It is the traditional primary backing for tufted carpets and the backing weave for woven carpets — carpet backing is the largest single use of jute yarn.
What is the difference between CBY and CBC?
CBY is carpet-backing yarn used in the backing structure; CBC is carpet-backing cloth — the hessian primary backing that tufts are inserted through. We supply both.
Can you match our count and twist specification?
Yes. We manufacture carpet-backing yarn to your exact count, ply and twist, held consistent order to order so it runs predictably on your looms and tufting machines.
What packing do you offer for carpet lines?
Cops, spools, cheeses or warp beams — packed to suit your specific machinery. Tell us your setup and we will match it.
