2023: A Wild Magic Carpet Ride
Big Plans for 2024!
Hello! Ciao. Guten Tag. Hola.
To all our customers around the globe we here at Curran & sisalcarpet.com wish you a lovely and peaceful holiday season. We’re grateful for your patronage, whether you ordered a custom rug from us, carpeted the hotel guest rooms for a client, or put a new daybed out on your back patio.
This year our company celebrated its 30th anniversary! And ending 2023 we remain more committed than ever to our original mission: making the world a little more hospitable and beautiful with every carpet, rug, and comfortable outdoor home furnishing we sell.
[Sticking this here for now.. We’ve brought on new product lines, like Jacaranda handwoven wool and Tencel-fiber carpet [I don't think this is true maybe cut this line out unless we have something analagous to announce]]
A Company with Truly Global Reach
2023 has been a year of significant first’s for our team. We opened up an office in Europe, near our SynSisal manufacturing plant, to better serve our customers in the EU and UK. [Tease here whatever we’re allowed to say: we’re also looking into distribution in Asia, Australia, and elsewhere.]
Improvements to our Virtual and Physical Presence
We’ve invested in significant upgrades to our websites, leveraging the latest technology to make the look and feel of our luxury weaves and furnishings come alive on your screen.
We've opened up a showroom at our Seattle head office where we welcome clients to experience our catalog offerings in person. To us, there's nothing quite like the feeling of sitting in a DEDON chair for the first time, running your hand along chunky natural sisal fibers, or unfurling an Umbrosa umbrella.
Products: Continuous Innovation and Increased Selection
We’re over the moon about new developments in our proprietary sisal-like synthetic weave: SynSisal®. Woven from 100% recycled nylon, SynSisal® is the ideal solution for hospitality, retail, and high-traffic areas that want the sisal look and feel in a product that is easily cleanable, durable, and beautiful.
In 2024, we’re moving full speed ahead to pioneer a truly eco-conscious sustainable alternative to flooring products commonly available to the leisure and hospitality industry: from homeowners to renowned hoteliers, consumers want flooring with a smaller carbon footprint made from sustainable sources. Most consumers care about sustainability, according to a recent Trip Advisor survey. It found that 62% of travelers had opted for more environmentally friendly hotels, food and transportation, and 69% of survey respondents said they intended to make even more environmentally responsible travel choices in the future. According to a sustainability research by Booking.com, 87% of travellers globally say they want to travel sustainably, and 68% of customers are interested in looking for eco-friendly hotels.
