EGGER HOUSE OF INSPIRATION AT INTERZUM
EGGER is presenting a range of new products and services at the
Interzum trade fair in Cologne.
From lightweight to compact, from deeply brushed to high gloss – the
Tyrolean wood-based material manufacturer is presenting new products,
services and application-oriented solutions in its “House of Inspiration” at the
Interzum trade fair in Cologne. The focus is on decor and texture highlights,
deep surfaces with synchronised pores on both sides, compact laminate for
interior applications and the VDS kitchen box as a service innovation.
The EGGER stand is approximately 500m 2 (5,382 square feet) in hall 6 (exhibition
stand A70 and B79) where visitors can enter a House of Inspiration. It has the full
diversity of products and services for furniture and interior design. Ulrich Bühler,
Management and Managing Director Marketing and Sales of EGGER Group
explains: “For us as a full-range supplier with various distribution channels, being
able to present innovations across our full range of products and services to the
industry as well as architects and distributors is very important.”
EVERYTHING FROM A SINGLE SOURCE
Visitors can experience the diversity of EGGER products during their tour. From
new decors and textures for the furniture industry to the ZOOM Collection with its
matching MFC, laminate and ABS edging. The House of Inspiration also features
lightweight building boards and acoustically effective elements that can be
customised with perforation patterns.
The fully coordinated product range stands for maximum design flexibility with
EURODEKOR, laminates, melamine and security edging and is presented under
“Everything from a single source”. EGGER Group subsidiary ROMA is integrated
into the joint trade fair concept. Products on display – including melamine edging,
PVC/ABS security edging and accent edging – are tailored to the variety of
customer requirements for industry and distributors.
CONTRIBUTION TO THE FURNITURE DESIGN OF TOMORROW
EGGER is represented in the “innovation of interior” special exhibition, presenting
the latest innovations for the furniture industry aimed at architects and designers.
The exhibition stand in hall 4.2 presents the decor and texture combinations with
wall panelling in the form of torn strips of paper.
