A new addition to the program and a highlight of DOMOTEX 2012 was the Wood Flooring Summit in Hall 9. Here the market leaders unveiled their latest products on a central display area, surrounded on all sides by the full range of what the parquet and laminate industry has to offer. For all those taking part, the Wood Flooring Summit was the perfect showcase for the industry, and a chance to demonstrate just how versatile and innovative it is.
Whatever type of flooring they were interested in - wood, laminate or outdoor decking – buyers from the retail trade, the skilled trades and the contract furnishing business got the full picture here. Selected premium products were there to be seen, touched - and walked on. Participating exhibitors certainly got their message across: today's floor coverings are objects of desire in their own right.
Thomas Eichhorn, who covers domestic architecture and building construction for lifestyle magazine SCHÖNER WOHNEN, believes that today's wood floorings "really do make us focus on the floor as the very foundation of domestic life." Also well-attended was the lecture forum at the Wood Flooring Summit, which hosted talks by guest speakers on themes such as the Internet as a key sales channel of the future.
