History

The Behar family arrived in London in the late 19th century as immigrants from the Ottoman Empire, with few skills and knowledge, apart from the care and specialist treatment of antique rugs and Oriental carpets. Our founder, Mr Samuel Behar’s grandfather, in some ways had little choice but to continue the family tradition of rug cleaning which stretched back centuries.
Far right, Mr Samuel Behar in 1950 after leaving the Royal Air Force, Bomber Command, discussing some fine antique carpets with collectors.



After over 100 years of first-hand experience in antique rug cleaning and restoration here in London and around the UK, the Behar family continues that tradition utilising the skills and developments uniquely researched and tested in the intervening years.
Behar Profex is not only respected and renowned for its professional antique and modern rug cleaning expertise here in the UK, but regularly receive instructions from all around the world.
