Mohawk Industries makes flooring products for homes and businesses. Its main products include carpet, hardwood, laminate, tile, and vinyl flooring sold under brands like Mohawk, Karastan, Pergo, and Daltile. It sells to home improvement retailers, flooring dealers, and commercial builders across the residential and commercial construction markets.

Mohawk earns money by manufacturing and selling flooring products directly to retailers and distributors, who then sell to end customers. It operates in North America, Europe, and other international markets, making it one of the largest flooring manufacturers in the world. Its scale and broad brand portfolio give it some pricing power, but the business is sensitive to housing market slowdowns and rising raw material costs — both of which have pressured margins in recent years. The key growth driver is a recovery in housing activity and remodeling spending, which tends to lift demand for new flooring.
