Feature Flooring THE PERSONAL TOUCH IN CARPET DESIGN Belgotex Floors offer the personal touch in carpet design with an expanded collection of customisable carpets. Two new collections – Touch Design ex stock and the African Collection have been incorporated into the Tuftweave custom program. Touch Design (the Abstract and Chaos ranges seen below) is a collection of luxurious patterned tufted carpets available ex stock, ideal for smaller upgrades or refurbishments in the hospitality and corporate sector. Three abstract patterns in five standard colours offer detailed design and colour definition in popular neutral shades, with four additional non-stocking colours for a bolder, brighter selection. Minimum quantities don’t apply, if you choose from the standard colours, with delivery from 24-48 hours!

Expanding Tuftweave’s design library of over 150 designs, the African Collection includes eight ranges featuring traditional shapes and patterns to more contemporary interpretations. Each pattern tells a vibrant story, conveyed through symbolism and abstract designs that represent the contrasting landscapes and diversity of this colourful continent. As a sample of Africa’s ancient art and craft traditions, including weaving, basketry and murals, the collection celebrates the decorative and aesthetic influence of the continent on modern fashion and design.
