The History of Joy Carpets

Headquartered in Fort Oglethorpe, GA, Joy Carpets is a fourth generation, family owned and operated business manufacturing specialty flooring for creative and eye-catching interiors. They provide industry-first floor coverings to residential, commercial, hospitality, and educational markets, worldwide.

Joy pioneered specialty flooring for commercial interiors with the introduction of the first-ever recreational carpeting, Games People Play®, in 1973. Since that time, the Education Market has been an important segment of their business, and they are committed to meeting the unique needs of early childhood professionals with their high-performance, educational carpets.

How Joy Carpets' Products Are Creating Better Learning Environments

Whether a classroom, daycare, library, or administrative office, carpet can create a warm and hospitable atmosphere that enhances the overall interior experience. Carpet color, design, and comfort all contribute to the degree to which information is absorbed and is directly related to the health, image, self-esteem, and attitude of students and teachers. An ideal combination of form and function, Joy Carpets combines award-winning designs with top level warranties and surpass all local, state, and federal health and safety standards.

And when it comes to acoustics and wellness, Joy Carpets’ products do not disappoint. Carpet enhances acoustics by reducing noise allowing teachers and students to better interact and concentrate. Carpet also acts as an efficient air filter trapping airborne allergens that may otherwise cause respiratory irritation.

How Joy Carpets Drives Innovation As A Company

Culture, fashion, and technology constantly evolve, and Joy Carpets continuously monitors these trends in an effort to provide product that is relevant to market demands. Their design team focuses on developing industry-first carpets that coordinate with the latest in furniture and interior design, and their manufacturing team ensures their products are constructed to perform in high-traffic commercial spaces while also being able to be easily cleaned and maintained for a long, useful life.
