Distinctively different in wool Hugh Mackay
Hugh Mackay has a showcase stand at the BGNFS with a lot to talk about that’s new and distinctively different.
The Infinity Range of axminster carpet has new stock ranges alongside the existing portfolio and the custom-made offer and it’s all presented in brand new point-of-sale which is guaranteed to brighten up any showroom.
Hugh Mackay is building on the strength of its core ranges to remaster the next generation of products with the launch of the Origins Collection. Riverside Origins is an 80/20 wool twist derived from the company’s iconic Riverside range, while 100% wool Natural Origins is new loop in three designs –herringbone, boucle and rib, based on the popular Natural Weave Range. The two ranges have a complementary colourbank. Durham Alternates is a new 3-ply loop inspired by the tones of Durham Twist Naturals and Durham Twist Elements. The new loop designs in herringbone, hobnail and boucle coordinate with their sister twist ranges to give an alternative choice across the home.
