Beaulieu Yarns, a leading supplier of high-quality synthetic yarns, will unveil Softitude, a new range of soft Solution Dyed Nylon (SDN) yarns for broadloom carpets, at Domotex 2016 exhibition that takes place from 16-19 January in Hannover, Germany.

Softitude builds on Beaulieu Yarns’ nearly 40-year history of developing new solutions to the evolving performance and manufacturing challenges of the carpet, home and professional industries.

Softitude yarns

Softitude yarns are said to provide a unique level of softness and durability to residential and hospitality broadloom carpets, with the added benefit of unlimited colour possibilities.

The combination is said to create new opportunities to achieve the advanced comfort, luxury and inviting warm touch particularly desired for bedroom carpets, without compromising on long-term wear and tear or colour choice, according to the company. Beaulieu Yarns says it worked closely with its customers in order to develop such intensity of softness for SDN yarn.

“Softitude represents a significant leap forward for the carpet-world in meeting the trend to create a relaxing and welcoming environment for stress-free down-time,” commented Joël Pirotte, Sales & Marketing Director. “We are excited to give carpet designers and manufacturers attending Domotex the first chance to explore the tactile emotion-inducing advantages and durability benefits of the range.”
