MONN – THE LOOK AND FEEL
OF QUALITY
When renowned carpet-maker, Pieter Nouwens,
launched MONN in 2012, he heralded a new era
in quality carpet manufacturing. MONN introduced
a superb collection of expertly crafted Wilton
carpets and has since launched its innovative
long-format MONN Planc carpet tile. The MONN
brand – which is a family-orientated acronym
for the names of Pieters’ sons, Marcus, Oscar
and Nicholas Nouwens - encapsulates the skills,
talents, experience and sterling reputation of five
generations of carpet-makers.
Now, MONN is advancing yet again. 2016 sees
the introduction of a brand new range: the highly
textured MONN Bureau is a structured loop-pile,
loose-lay carpet tile. The square modules are
available in four colourways and have a dynamic
linear motif, which allows for a variety of different laying patterns for a contemporary
look. MONN Bureau’s dimensions are also compatible with MONN Planc and, when used
together, provide endless design possibilities.
In addition, MONN is also launching MONN Axminster, which sees the integration of
the Nouwens family’s expertise in on-demand bespoke broadloom weaving and carpet
design into the brand’s existing, ready-made offering.
The experienced MONN Axminster design team works closely with clients to develop
a creative concept into a full-fledged carpet design that seamlessly marries the floor finish
with architectural interiors. MONN Axminster’s design and weaving technology can create
perfect pattern matches as well as single infinite designs with incredible precision and
detail, down to a single tuft.
The MONN in-house yarn dyeing plant allows Axminster clients to select a palette of
up to eight colours from the spectrum of more than 600 standard colours. In addition,
MONN Axminster can perfectly match a custom hue to suit a specific decor scheme,
adding an exclusive finishing touch to any hotel, casino, restaurant, corporate office or
luxurious home’s interior. www.monn.co.za
