GH Commercial would like to invite you to visit Godfrey Hirst and Feltex carpet manufacturing plant in Wiri (Auckland). employing over 160 kiwis.
Drawing on over 100 years of local manufacturing experience in New Zealand, the business is the largest manufacturer and exporter of commercial and residential carpets in Australasia.
Featuring ready-made collections, designers collaborations and fully bespoke solutions, we can service any project requirements. As a socially and environmentally focused business, our New Zealand carpet tufting plant and distribution facilities in Auckland are proudly carbon neutral.
This plant tour is an informal opportunity to see the tufting process and gain a better understanding of the main types (Tufted, Tiles, Woven), styles (cut pile, loop pile) and fibres used in carpets. We want to provide you with first-hand knowledge of the flooring industry in New Zealand to help you in making fully informed decisions about residential or commercial project specifications.
We expect the entire event to take no more than 90 minutes.
All participants must wear closed-toe shoes. Please note the plant is a high-noise manufacturing environment.
