DEADLINE SET FOR CARPET DESIGN AWARDS FOR DOMOTEX 2017

Dedicated display areas showcase Innovations@Domotex in all floor coverings categories, including modern and handmade carpets and rugs.


HANNOVER -- The submissions process for Innovations@Domotex 2017, including the prestigious Carpet Design Awards, has begun, offering exhibitors an additional opportunity to showcase their latest products at Domotex.

Exhibitors have until Nov. 1, 2016 to submit their latest products in the categories of textile floor coverings, fibers and yarns; resilient floor coverings; wood parquet and laminate; modern hand-made carpets and rugs; and applications and installation technologies. Product samples can also be submitted. Participation is free of charge for registered exhibitors. 

Back for the fourth time, Innovations@Domotex presents the latest trends and innovations in a series of dedicated display areas in Halls 6, 9 and 17. 

CARPET DESIGN AWARDS

A jury of experts under the chairmanship of the renowned industrial designer Stefan Diez will examine and assess the entries in mid-November 2016, and put together a varied shortlist. New products submitted in the product group "Modern hand-made carpets and rugs" are assessed by a separate international jury of design and carpet industry professionals, which is responsible for the Carpet Design Awards. 

The jury selects the best designer carpets and rugs in eight categories. These will be on display throughout the show on the Innovations@Domotex Area in Hall 17, which also hosts the formal prize award ceremony for the winners on 15 January 2017. The Carpet Design Awards are regarded as the top international accolade for exclusive hand-made carpets and rugs, and are eagerly awaited at the start of every year.

Entries can be submitted up until Nov. 1, 2016 via the Online Business System (OBS). Full details are available on the Internet at www.obs.messe.de.
