Did you miss us at Decorex?
This year's Decorex International seemed busier than ever, with lots of visitors coming to our stand to see our latest weave designs. Large traditional patterns, as well as small textured upholstery weights seemed to gather the most attention. Visitors were fascinated by the fact that they could custom colour the weaves on show. All in all the whole event was deemed a success, with the carefully coordinated colour palette of the stand being well received.
We have included some images of the stand incase you missed it.
