Louis de Poortere brings on the style
at the Buying Groups National Flooring Show
Alongside its new and highly
impressive suitcase that catalogues
a striking range of carpet, Louis de
Poortere brought its rug collection to
the Buying Groups National Flooring
Show.
This on-trend gathering of vintage,
worn-look and patchwork designs
have been making a mark right
across the country, becoming a star
attraction for retailers. Encompassing
The Fading World, Cameo and New
Vintage collections, the rugs proved a
real hit at the show:
“Our rugs have certainly captured the
consciousness of the UK consumer
and it seemed that they also sparked
new interest in our marque from
visiting buying group retailers,”
comments Alan Russell, sales
manager, Louis de Poortere. “We
were also delighted to show retailers
our new suitcase that captures
a simply stunning array of carpet
styles.”
Ideal for retailers short-on-space
but looking to make the most
from the prestige of the Louis de
Poortere brand, the suitcase includes
fabulously-named and no-less
attractive carpets such as Superbirds,
EcoDream, Richelieu Velours and
Hermes. Alongside, an incredible
array of stripe styles for use as stair
carpet, hall runners and even wallto-wall carpet for the adventurous in

ranges such as Color.ne, Color Full
and Color Loop, underline that Louis
de Poortere is a force to be reckoned
with in carpet with a sense of style.
“The show proved a huge success
and we were delighted to welcome
so many interested retailers to our
stand. I believe our collections have
to be seen first-hand to get a true
idea of the quality, style and diversity
that they hold and the Buying Groups
National Flooring Show provided us
with just such an opportunity. It looks
like an exciting time ahead for the
brand,” concludes Alan Russell.
