THE FLOORING SHOW GUIDE


ABINGDON FLOORING GOES BIG STAND: A25 AND A37


Abingdon Flooring is making big waves at this year’s Flooring Show in Harrogate, unveiling a giant leap forward in its multi- category approach. With significant product launches across smooth flooring and carpets, the British brand is demonstrating to the industry what it means to think – and act – big.


After a successful debut at last year’s show, Simply Smooth is back with a brand-new range set to expand its footprint even further. Born from a bold vision to deliver stylish, great-value smooth flooring across LVT, cushion vinyl, and laminate, Simply Smooth has quickly become a go-to brand for retailers – and now it's poised for further growth.


“We’ve seen huge demand from our retail partners for more Simply Smooth products,” said Charlotte Coop, head of marketing. “This new collection builds on that momentum, offering the same great value and design appeal. With LVT, laminate, cushion vinyl, and now a new addition, Simply Smooth has become a complete, powerful smooth flooring family that suits every home – and every customer preference.”


Simply Smooth's strength is such that it will take over its own dedicated stand at this year’s event, giving the brand room to shine and proving that this category is only getting bigger.


BJELIN PRESENTS PREMIUM WOOD FLOORS STAND: Q88


Bjelin is excited to present its latest Scandinavian-designed floors at this year’s Flooring Show.


The company will show its range of tech-empowered, durable wood floors, including the contemporary Woodura Herringbone 2.0, sleek Woodura Planks 3.0 – as well as the striking Contrast Collection – and the exceptional Nadura Tiles.


“We’re thrilled to be showcasing our products once again at the UK’s leading event for the flooring industry,” said Simon Darbyshire, managing director of Bjelin UK. “We are proud to present our more sustainable, ultra-modern and durable flooring solutions. We’re looking forward to connecting with flooring contractors, specifiers and retailers, and presenting our versatile solutions for both residential and commercial spaces.”


Bjelin's hardened wood floors feature the patented Woodura technology, a high-quality solution that maximises the use of raw materials while creating 100% real wood floors that boast three times the strength of conventional wood floors. Now available in planks of sizes S, M, L, XL and XXL – plus herringbone with larger, more contemporary panels.


The new Slate Collection, featuring Nadura Tiles, is powered by Nadura technology, providing a high level of wear and impact


resistance superior to traditional wood floors. With deep textures and natural colour variations, it delivers a cool yet inviting finish.


“At Bjelin, we believe in making better use of materials, and the patented Nadura technology embodies this vision,” said Simon Darbyshire. “The innovative process helps reduce waste and supports a circular product lifecycle.”


Bjelin’s floors also feature advanced click technology, developed by sister company Välinge Innovation, including 5G and 5G Dry, a leakproof solution that means a fast, easy, and durable installation with a watertight joint.

But Abingdon isn’t just going big in smooth flooring – it's also making significant moves in carpets. A refreshed Love Story collection will debut at the show, bringing new textures and colours to the much-loved supersoft luxury range. The update keeps the Love Story brand feeling fresh, while staying true to its comfort-first roots.


Also making its debut is a brand-new innovation in the Stainfree carpet family. Built on Abingdon’s renowned Stainfree yarn technology, this latest addition brings something entirely unique for the market – once again proving that when it comes to performance carpets, Abingdon are big on innovation.
