Product Description

Baobab 9200 Black Water, from the Louis de Poortere custom size rug selection, inspired by the celebrated tree symbol of Senegal, to which its inhabitants lend miraculous virtues and magical powers.

Baobab takes the African moulded forms of the tree, and is woven on Wilton jacquard looms using PES threads to create the intricate detailing.

It is now possible to choose personalized dimensions and special shapes in three of the most popular Louis de Poortere designs, offering greater creative freedom and a tailor-made solution for the most demanding projects. This approach affirms more than ever their commitment to placing design at the service of interior architecture and contemporary living spaces.

Woven on expansive 3-meter-wide rolls, three signature designs can be shaped into bespoke rectangles or flowing organic silhouettes. Each cut is an opportunity to respond intuitively to space, allowing form, proportion, and movement to come together in a truly personalized rug

Louis de Poortere can draw on over a century of skill and craftsmanship of creating stunning rugs, all designed and produced in Belgium. People are seeking beauty, elegance, comfort and value for their homes so their designers and technicians create collections that are modern, accessible and crafted to bring the utmost pleasure. And because tastes are unique, they commit to bold concepts that bring the ultimate in sophistication to your floorcovering.

The new Ecorug collection has moved to a monomaterial polyester construction, that gives a guarantee that their rugs are not only high quality, but also fully recyclable.

Flatwoven and approx. 3mm in thickness. The edges are folded and stitched so these are 7mm thickness – the perfect choice for under tables or chairs.

Every part of a custom size Louis de Poortere Baobab 9200 Black Water rug is made from polyester. By creating a 100% mono-material construction, the need to separate materials is eliminated and and makes it easier to recycle Ecorugs at the end of their life.

In terms of durability, polyester fibres are stronger and more durable than cotton. In fact, when the wear of new Ecorugs is compared with a cotton construction, it was found that cotton wears out three times more under the same usage. The use of 100% polyester means a longer rug life and less frequent replacement.

Polyester is endlessly recyclable without degradation in quality, giving the potential to adopt a circular product model in the future. Recycling polyester means Louis de Poortere can extend the life of the materials used, reducing demand for new raw materials.
