Boost for carpet market (25/01/11)

A new report has predicted a surge in the popularity of carpets will occur during this coming year.

Although carpets have always been a reliable and traditional choice for anyone looking to buy flooring, contemporary fashion has moved towards solid wood and engineered flooring.

Contract Flooring Journal, said: “Carpets will continue to face pressure from alternative smooth floor coverings, including engineered and solid wood, vinyl and ceramic tiles.

“However, demand for residential carpets is expected to benefit from the current fashion trend in interiors towards more textured fabrics and patterns.”

This new report reflects the shift in attitudes, although the report does state that the change is likely to be small, at least to begin with. Remland carpets offer a wide range of carpets and engineered floors such as aspect engineered wood.
