Mohawk Industries has announced an $8M investment in its Eden, N.C., weaving plant where its Karastan brand rugs are produced.
Almost 90 years after the first Karastan rug was produced at the facility, Mohawk is reinvigorating the location with investments in technology, equipment, infrastructure and new jobs that, according to the company, will make Eden a center of excellence in weaving across all of the Karastan brand’s business segments—including the residential, rug and commercial divisions—as well as producing woven collections for select specialized channels.
