For a long time, carpet has been the symbol of Iranian art in the west more than everything; it is a carpet that reflects the original and natural art, civilization and culture of the country

Carpet has always had a special PLACE in the luxuries life of every human.

Todays, there has been a lot of advancement in the carpet industry because of technology progresses, and hand look carpets produced with high elegance and density

which have tied Iranian ancient traditions in its fabric.

Iran has an average of 985 machine-made carpet production unit and each unit requires an average of 500,000$ investment; totally, all of these production units requires less than 493 million dollars investment,

meanwhile it costs about 6 million dollars to build a refinery in Iran; it means 12 times of investment costs for all production units of machine-made carpet in Iran.

Due to very low investment cost in this industry in contrast to  oil and refinery industries , if we can increase production units so we can increase non-oil export and foreign exchange inflow in to the country, which this is in line with resistance economy policies and it is a bridge to overcome the sanctions pressure.
