Ege Carpets was founded by Mads Eg Damgaard in 1938 in Herning, Denmark.
Today, Ege Carpets is one of Europe’s largest manufacturers of textile flooring. Our founder was a visionary entrepreneur whose philosophy was uncompromising.
Mads Eg Damgaard used only the latest and most advanced technology in carpet production and he was not afraid to challenge convention.
We are proud that the philosophy still survives at Ege Carpets, exactly as our founder would have wished.
