Carpet and Rug Mills

Analysis

NAICS 314110 is the 2022 national industry for carpet and rug mills, part of 31411 (Carpet and Rug Mills). Census lists 8 example activities under it in the official index.

County Business Patterns counts 237 US establishments in this code in 2023, employing 25,931 people at an average annual payroll of $52,662 per employee (21st percentile of national industries). 30% of the establishments have fewer than five employees, which is close to the national mix.

Its index entries, the activities Census uses to assign businesses to this code, include automobile and aircraft carpet and rug manufacturing, bath mats and bath sets made in carpet mills, carpets and rugs made from textile materials and doormats, all materials (except entirely of rubber or…, among 8 in all.

Its goods appear in 75 statistical lines of the US tariff schedule, mostly under headings 5702 (carpets and other textile floor coverings, woven, not…), 5703 (carpets and other textile floor coverings (including turf)…) and 5701 (carpets and other textile floor coverings, knotted, whether…). That link is how import data is matched to domestic producers, for example in trade-remedy cases.

Between 2018 and 2023 the number of establishments fell 4% and employment fell 6%. The 2018 count used NAICS 2017, so part of a large move can come from codes being redefined rather than from businesses opening or closing.
