Consumption Potential for Carpet Grows in Asia
As one of the most important floor covering materials, carpets have been widely
used in developed countries. However, carpets are not commonly used in Asia.
With their recent rapid growth in tourism, real estate and entertainment
industries, the carpet market has continued to expand. The consumption potential
is especially remarkable in the regions such as Japan, Korea, China and Middle East.
Additionally, the demand for hand-made carpets has recently been on a steady
rise with the improvement of people’s living standard. Because of their
value-preserved characteristics, hand-made carpets are surprisingly more welcome
during the period of economic crisis in Asia. Additionally, carpets are capable
of maintaining the interior temperature in order to achieve energy-saving
purpose.
Commercial Demand Makes Steady Rise of Resilient Flooring
Resilient flooring is undoubtedly the fastest growing section at DOMOTEX asia/CHINAFLOOR(DACF).
Resilient floorings have become popular because of their versatility and they
are widely used in hospitals, schools, offices, shopping malls and sport arenas.
The expansion of resilient flooring at DOMOTEX asia/CHINAFLOOR(DACF) greatly
results from the high speed of urbanization in Asia initiated by Center Business
District projects and 4-bilion-dollar investment in infrastructure construction
in China.

FLOORTECH asia brings out the concept integrating products and technology at the
same platform for the very first time and stretches into every step of flooring

Introducing Total Solutions for Industry Flooring – CHEMFLOOR
Due to the recent growth and upgrade in infrastructure construction, property
owners have had stricter requirements on flooring products mainly composed of
raw chemical materials. Self-leveling is widely used in all kinds of arenas. The
functionality of epoxy floors and environmental characteristics of minor
ingredients of ground, painting and mortar, have received more attention from
contractors, material suppliers and developers in China.

Deepening energy crisis and serious environmental problems urged the promotion
of sustainable development and green economy globally. As the trend-setting
