The Mohawk Group @ NeoCon '10
Welcome
If there's ever been a time to look forward to the future, it's now. Here at The Mohawk Group, we're doing just that. Tomorrow is full of promise, and we're encouraged by the opportunities ahead—for our company and our customers.At NeoCon 2010 (Showroom 377), you'll see evidence of our optimism everywhere you look, especially beneath your feet. We've found inspiration in unexpected places—from rusted metals and neglected buildings to revitalized city centers and humble surfaces such as concrete. Our new product collections from Karastan, Lees, Bigelow and Durkan have turned ordinary and uninviting into beautiful and interesting. We're also strengthening our sustainability commitment with a new bio-based fiber system developed from corn. Take a sneak peek at this eco-innovation with Karastan, and expect to hear more once it rolls out to other brands later this year.
But where you'll really notice our bright outlook is in our "Innovation Showroom" (3-121). Helping to drive our product vision forward, we've partnered with BMW Designworks USA to develop a refreshing color roadmap that promises to wow for the next five to seven years. Not only are the colors captivating, but the story behind them will prove even more impressive. How's that for planning ahead?
All of our innovations go well beyond the floor; they're designed to be customized to conquer challenges, optimize opportunities and empower creative solutions in any situation and installation.
Visit The Mohawk Group's NeoCon showrooms and experience our carpeting productions of today—and tomorrow. The forecast in Chicago is bright—and colorful!
