Microtuft with around 50% less yarn
Northern Light is a plain level loop microtuft. Following the ‘less is more’ principle, we designed a category of product, called Microtuft, which uses approximately 50% less yarn to achieve equivalent performance.
Microtuft bridges the gap between a carpet tile and hard floor, offering substantially better acoustics than hard floors and a sophisticated aesthetic surface which is easy to clean. The Microtuft category is among our highest growth products, accounting for around 14% of European sales in 2012.
