New Ranges Added From The Plantation Rug Company
Posted: 8th May 2009
Until recently The Plantation Rug Company were a relatively small UK importer and were not particularly well known within the UK rug market. However since being bought out the Headlam Group (the UK’s largest floor covering distributor) the Plantation Rug Company has been completely transformed into one of the UK’s leading rug suppliers. Modern Rugs was fast to get on board with them and offer these superb ranges to our customers.
Until recently The Plantation Rug Company were a relatively small UK importer and were not particularly well known within the UK rug market. However since being bought out the Headlam Group (the UK’s largest floor covering distributor) the Plantation Rug Company has been completely transformed into one of the UK’s leading rug suppliers. Modern Rugs was fast to get on board with them and offer these superb ranges to our customers.
After the Headlam Group purchased The Plantation Rug Company a large amount has been invested in growing the company turning it into one of the UK’s leading rug importers. Much of this investment has gone in to revamping the entire product range. This has certainly paid off; the latest 2009 designs are simply stunning. As soon as we saw the new designs we knew our customers would love them so we moved quickly to offer these rugs on our website.
Plantation source their rugs from countries across the globe including India, China and Northern Europe. One of plantations main strengths is their hand tufted wool range. Here the focus is on design excellence and premium quality. The ‘Harlequin’ and ‘Pacific’ collections feature simple yet effective contemporary designs and colours. The ‘Harlequin’ collection distinguishes itself with platted corners for a unique look. The ‘Natural’ rugs with their neutral relaxing tones are for those who want something modern yet understated, whilst the ‘Regatta’ rugs infuse zesty colours into their striped design. For the more price conscious there are some stylish budget acrylic ranges named ‘Decadence’, ‘Inspired’ and ‘Revival’.
Traditional wool ranges include the beautiful hand carved ‘Jewel’ range and the ‘Taj Agra’ range which is hand knotted by master craftsmen in a traditional Moghal style and has one of the thickest wool piles found on any rug. The ‘Tribal’ and ‘Past 2 Present’ ranges contain some classic Afghan and European designs with a soft viscose pile and fringed ends for an authentic traditional look.
The ‘Royale’ wool collection which combines a subtle traditional hand carved pattern with plain colours including creams, beiges, reds, greens and blues. It is becoming increasingly difficult to find a good quality plain rug so the Royale range certainly fills this gap in the market. As well as this they also come in circles, ovals and half moons making them suitable for almost anywhere.
Plantation also offer a good variety of shaggies which include the wool ‘Shetland’ and ‘Natures Tide’ ranges as well as the polyester ‘Kelp’ and ‘Fusilli’ shaggies.
As well as our close up photography you will also find videos of all Plantations rugs on our website. You can not view these ranges in more detail anywhere else online. And because we’re committed to offering the lowest prices if you do find any of these rugs cheaper online elsewhere we promise to beat it. The reaction from customers has been very positive already and look forward to Plantation becoming one of our foremost suppliers in 2009 and beyond.
