WHAT’S NEW?
KBI UK SUPPORTS COMPLETION OF MND CENTRE
Barnsley-based porous surfacing specialist KBI UK has supported the Rob Burrow Centre for Motor Neurone Disease at Seacroft Hospital, Leeds, installing high-quality resin-bound surfacing at cost. Prince William officially opened the centre on 20 November.
Commissioned under principal contractor I&G Ltd and designed by Leeds-based landscape architects Re-Form, the centre’s external areas were completed with 440m² of durable resin-bound surfacing in elegant Evening Rose, supplied by KBI’s long-term material partner, Vuba.
KBI’s installation team installed surfacing to both the north elevation, providing accessible pathways at the main entrance, and the south elevation, which includes a sensory garden and walk-through space for patients and families. The project reflects a shared commitment to creating welcoming, inclusive, and sustainable environments across all areas of the new facility.
Approached by Re-Form to support the build on a charitable basis, KBI responded without hesitation. The work was carried out by a dedicated team of five, including Anthony Irvine, a former KBI project manager and current strategic partner, who previously played rugby alongside Rob Burrow at Leeds.
THE TIMELESS ELEGANCE OF MAYFAIR
Causeway Carpets has launched Mayfair, a wool carpet crafted to reflect British design sensibilities.
Crafted from 100% pure new wool in a resilient four-ply yarn, Mayfair is an exquisite loop pile carpet from Causeway Carpets. Featuring as one of the naturally beautiful and durable carpet ranges in The Natura Collection, Mayfair is a perfect blend of style, texture and natural materials.
Recognising the uniqueness of British design sensibilities, this new carpet comes in 50 refined and elegant colourways in the four styles of Mayfair Rib, Mayfair Linea, Mayfair Weave and Mayfair Texture. Each offers an exquisitely crafted floorcovering to enhance classic and modern interiors alike and bring homes a luxury touch.
Causeway Carpets commercial director Richard Moore said: ‘The Natura Collection celebrates the beauty of natural fibre in
8
carpets that are exceptional value. With the addition of Mayfair, we are expanding the collection with more options for today’s homes and fulfilling our promise to bring quality independent retailers the best in luxurious carpeting crafted with care.”
Using a heavyweight four-ply yarn, Mayfair’s textures are not only beautiful but also enduring, more than enough to withstand years of use in living areas. And with wool’s natural resilience, Mayfair’s textures will stay defined and elegant throughout.
Made by Lusotufo in Portugal, Mayfair comes with a 10-year wear warranty and is available in both four and five metre widths. Sampling of the range is available for Causeway Carpets new-look Compact Display Unit and Multi Display Unit.

Graham Pell, managing director of KBI UK, said: “This project means a lot to us on both a personal and professional level. It’s a privilege to have contributed to such a vital and compassionate space. We’re grateful to Re-Form and I&G for involving us, and proud to support the legacy of a centre that will bring comfort, care, and community to so many.”
The Rob Burrow Centre for Motor Neurone Disease is named in honour of the late Leeds Rhinos legend, whose high-profile advocacy, courage in sharing his diagnosis
and determination to improve care for others, sparked the national fundraising effort that turned his vision into reality.
Commissioned by Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, the centre brings a wide range of valuable MND services under one roof. Funded through Leeds Hospitals Charity’s £6.8m appeal, the centre includes clinical treatment areas, research space, and quiet outdoor zones to enhance patient wellbeing.
