Our story
At Millenerpoort we create high-quality handmade rugs. Why our brand stands out? Our products are mainly made by people who are distanced from the labor market. Each day, these craftsmen are creating the most beautiful rugs, fully customized by our customers. Our products are truly made with love and care. Each rug is made to order, so you can configure it to completely match your interior style.
ContactA socially responsible rug
When you choose a rug from Millenerpoort, you are choosing a socially responsible rug. Our production hall mainly employs people who are distanced from the labor market. To this end, we work closely with our parent company Vidar. Each of our rugs therefore contributes to job opportunities for people that need it most. We train all employees internally to become true craftspeople who work with passion and an eye for detail.
Our factory is located in Sittard, which means that our rugs are 100% made in the Netherlands. At Millenerpoort, you can count on fair production methods and local employment, as well as socially responsible practices.
Craftsmanship
The rugs produced at Millenerpoort are all largely made by hand.
Finished to perfection
Whether you choose a high-pile or low-pile, the edges of your rug are always perfectly finished.
A rich history
Millenerpoort has its origins as a social work factory in Sittard, The Netherlands. As early as 1974, a closing hand-knotting rugs factory was bought to start making rugs locally. From then on, we operated under the name “Millenerpoort Design Tapijten” (which translates to “Millenerpoort Design Rugs”). In 2001, our company merged and it became a part of the organization now known as “Vidar”. The rug factory, with its now well-known brand name “Millenerpoort Design Tapijten”, continued on as a separate brand. In 2018, we said goodbye to the “Design Tapijten” and adopted the shortened name “Millenerpoort”. A strong brand with unchanged quality and possibilities.
Nowadays, the hand-knotting machines are no longer in use. To offer our customers the best quality rugs, we invested in the latest robotics to complement the hand-tufting production technique. This allows us to apply perfect color gradients, 3D tufting effects, and combined tufting techniques, in order to produce each rug in a personalized, high-quality, and responsible manner.
