Balta carpets has announced a major refresh of its in-store merchandise, bringing new ranges and collection updates, as well as new stand designs, ready to boost sales in 2020 and beyond.


For its Balta carpets line-up, the manufacturer is launching a new book stand, introducing Carinthia alongside other popular styles. In 14 elegant landscape-inspired pastels, including tones such as Safari, Grassy Meadow, Sea Anemone and Mountain Lake; Carinthia enjoys a plush 1/10th gauge construction for a dense and plush cut- pile. Made from stain-resistant X-Tron high-performance polypropylene yarn, there’s no doubting the suitability of this carpet for demanding family homes.

With a deep pile of 13mm, this stain-resistant carpet provides a wonderful underfoot feel and, in a palette of 10 modern hues, it’s certainly a tempting proposition for homeowners. This classic 1/8th gauge cut-pile is a true heavyweight quality ready to add luxury to homes.
