Bentley Mills

What Bentley Mills does

Bentley Mills, Inc. is a private US commercial carpet manufacturer founded in 1979 and headquartered at 14641 E Don Julian Road in City of Industry, California; the company operates as the US segment of the publicly traded Belysse Group. It is the only commercial carpet manufacturer in California and runs from a LEED EB: O+M Gold certified facility, manufacturing broadloom carpet, carpet tile, area rugs (Prima Vista), EliteFlex 6FT cushion, walk-off tiles, and luxury vinyl tile (LVT). Product offerings span 143+ SKUs across multiple proprietary backing systems (AFIRMA II Hardback, EliteFlex Cushion, LuxFelt, NexStep, Optimum Barrier II, High PerformancePC) and signature collections such as In Concert Series, SoCal Collection, Fan Club, Screen Door, and Lost Language. Each product is produced with Bentley Premium Nylon and the proprietary COLORCAST color technology, and all carpet lines carry Declare labels, LBC Red List Free status, Cradle to Cradle Silver certification, and NSF 140 Gold or Platinum ratings.

The company sells through an enterprise field-sales motion targeting the architecture and design community, supported by local sales representatives (1.800.423.4709), an inside sales team, showrooms (including a NeoCon pop-up at 803 W. Lake in Chicago), an e-commerce catalog, and AIA/IDCEC-certified CEU courses. Pricing is quote-based rather than published, and revenue is generated through one-time commercial specification sales with multi-year contract cycles. Named customers span enterprise corporate (Prosek Partners, JLL, CBOE, Allen Matkins), education (Westminster School, Stony Brook, Cherry Creek), healthcare (Hilger Clinic), and government/aviation (San Francisco International Airport). Notable installations include custom designs for the SFO Harvey Milk Terminal 1, winner of the Prix Versailles 'World's Most Beautiful Airport' award in December 2025.

Revenue mechanics rest on commercial flooring specification rather than subscription or recurring revenue, with sustainability documentation (Declare, EPD, HPD, LEED credit calculator) and 100% US-based Tier 1 suppliers (17 suppliers) supporting the 'Made in California' value proposition. The FULFILL reclamation program and Fast Track quick-ship program are operational differentiators. In April 2026, Jim Cusick was appointed President, signaling a strategic reset following a 7% revenue decline in the Bentley Mills US segment in H2 2025 reported by parent Belysse Group (full-year 2025 group revenue EUR 254.2M with adjusted EBITDA down 19% to EUR 34.4M). The company currently employs over 400 team members.
