Artepy and Carpet Concept, an obvious partnership

Exclusive distributor of Carpet Concept in France, Artepy expands its offering

As of May 1, 2010, ARTEPY became the exclusive distributor in France for CARPET CONCEPT products. A German company based in Bielefeld, Lower Saxony, with a state-of-the-art weaving mill in the state of Thuringia, CARPET CONCEPT produces high-end, decorative, and contemporary woven carpets. These products are particularly popular with architects, who can deploy them in a wide variety of spaces.

CARPET CONCEPT's stylish floor coverings are suitable for all public spaces (institutions, hotels, offices, reception areas, etc.) and private spaces. They are internationally recognized and used:

For its spaces in Luxembourg, the European Investment Bank has chosen TEC woven carpets.

ECO woven carpets in anthracite and red adorn the floors of the Coca-Cola administration in Ratingen.

For its center in Cologne, the insurer AXA has selected the NET collection.

In spring 2010, the TEC collection will also be featured in the German pavilion at the 63rd World Expo, which is being held this year in Shanghai.

"The CARPET CONCEPT range perfectly aligns with our product philosophy," explains Marie-Noëlle Plassard, founder of ARTEPY. "The blend of tradition and design of CARPET CONCEPT's high-end carpets fits harmoniously into our offering. It fully meets our requirements for quality and creativity."

"We've known Marie-Noëlle Plassard for a long time and we see the same dynamic that drives us at ARTEPY. The time was right to create this partnership," explains Hendrik Bisgaard Jensen, Vice President of CARPET CONCEPT and Director of International Sales.

A trendsetter, the ARTEPY Group designs, manufactures, and distributes decorative elements and materials for the design of private and public spaces. ARTEPY is the creator of the 100% handmade artistic OËN collections. In France, ARTEPY is the exclusive distributor of BOLON, the world leader in woven vinyl flooring, and since May 1, 2010, the exclusive distributor of CARPET CONCEPT, the number one designer woven carpet brand "made in Germany." ARTEPY also offers a range of contemporary parquet flooring, panels, and accessories in solid bamboo, "Artepy Bamboo."
