Home decorations that are individualistic, versatile and easy to combine with other elements - that is what consumers are looking for. In other words, they are in the market for modularity - one of the key home furnishing trends which is giving an added boost to the already strong segment of machine-made carpets and rugs.

Over the past few years textile floor coverings have made the transition to genuine all-rounders. And the intermeshing of design and function represents a continuing trend.
Resilient floor coverings are experiencing a spike in popularity in both private and commercial settings - and for good reason, as the latest new products demonstrate.
According to Germany's Federal Office of Statistics, domestic sales of wood floor coverings are up 28.1% since 2005. The growing market penetration of wood floors is due not just to the timeless beauty of parquet, but also to the versatility of this classic material - on display at DOMOTEX 2013 in a host of exciting new variations.
End users were the first to recognize the advantages of laminates; now the building sector is catching on and this covering is coming to the attention of a growing number of buyers. Its very attractive price-to-performance ratio is not the only reason.
The trend towards making greater utilization of outdoor space has had an impact on the floor coverings sector as well, reflected in a growing demand from homeowners as well commercial or institutional clients. Manufacturers are reacting by offering an even greater variety of options, along with a series of clever new innovations.
Flooring in commercial buildings must do more. Only certain materials and technologies were up to it until now, but the canonic selection is starting to open up. These days there is a range of new options.
They may be minor matters, but they can still tip the balance - because why should you be the one to have to worry about it? Competent service providers, smart software and services offered by associations can sometimes do things faster, cheaper, and simply better.
Research institutes, universities and innovative companies can take pride in huge progress in recent years in the fields of fibers, yarns and textiles. These advances have led to weather-resistant outdoor carpeting and disinfectable coverings in sectors with extensive hygiene requirements, such as hospitals. In certain areas, textile floor coverings and woven goods have become truly high-tech products.
The situation for floor layers has changed radically over the past few years: A series of new standards and regulations have come into force at the same time as budgets continue to tighten. In the meantime customers are becoming choosier while competition intensifies. One silver lining involves the growing number of solutions which have now become available.
Flooring Deluxe provides the perfect setting for premium floor coverings, parquet and laminate flooring.
