Created in 1985

CarpetSaver was created in 1985 by Dr. Leon Perahia (July 1927 – February 2022) of New Jersey with the help of a close friend in the clothing manufacturing business. He wanted to protect his floors during a renovation and went to his friend with a challenge– come up with a lightweight runner that is easy to walk on, non-skid, and attractive.

It seemed to Perahia that the stiff, bulky products on the market had little appeal and something much better had to be possible. With some creativity, his friend suggested the unique combination of cotton blend terry cloth and open-cell foam.

CarpetSaver® was born! As soon as Perahia placed it on his linoleum floor and took a walk on it, he knew he had something people would like. Then he tried it on carpeted stairs and instantly became convinced!

After a frustrating few years of attempting to go to market, he nearly ‘gave away the product’ to another flooring company for a small percentage of sales. But that ended in 1990 when a Premiere National Catalog, Solutions, tested it and liked it! They promptly created a prime spot in their catalog to offer it to their valued customers. It was off and running. Since then it has been featured in many national catalogs, QVC, distributors to contractors, yacht decorators and with some overseas suppliers. As the years rolled on and shopping moved online, we brought out our website to reach an audience around the globe.

We hope you find this website useful and look forward to hearing from you soon!

Sincerely,
Andrew Perahia
