“This event is like being invited to dine in the house of a friend versus being invited to a restaurant” says Ruben Desmet, CEO Unilin Flooring and one of the founding partners.

The first edition of the FFD boasted over 1000 visitors from more than 55 countries and took place in the showrooms of Flanders’ 10 leading flooring providers and was initiated by the 7 “founding fathers” (Belgotex International represented by Associated Weavers, Balta, Beaulieu International Group, Belysse, Coretec Floors, Lano & Unilin).

10 manufacturers in a 25km radius
During four days, visitors from all over the world were treated to the flagship showrooms and factories of 10 leading Flemish flooring manufacturers in only a 25-kilometers radius in the heart of easily accessible Flanders! This made for an extremely time-efficient visit for those who wished to stay on top of the trends of the flooring industry. In 2023, even more manufacturers will take part, adding even more reasons to visit.

See all of it
A traditional trade fair only shows you a selection of what each producer can offer. Here visitors got to see everything of every company that took part. As one of the visitors said: “So inspiring. As a customer I had the unique opportunity to see the complete product range of several manufacturers.” The founding fathers of this prestigious event gave visitors the closest & most complete insiders’ view that one can get. It’s easy to ask questions directly to the people behind the companies, talk to the exclusive group of wholesalers and retailers that are joining as visitors or even get a factory tour.

Enjoy Flemish hospitality at its best
These top flooring companies are eager to invite their clients back again at their ‘homes’ and just as equally customers are keen to visit. This second edition adds even more chances to discover, meet and learn. This will be topped off with a delicious sauce of Flemish culinary and cultural traditions: Flemish hospitality at its best, back again in 2023!

Further ambitious plans for 2024 inviting other European players
Showing their true innovative spirit the founding fathers are planning 2024 to be even more inclusive and exciting. In 2024 Flanders Flooring Days will also welcome other European players to show and demonstrate themselves to wholesalers and retailers in the industry. Flanders is small in surface, but big enough to open itself to the flooring world.

The 2023 event will be held May 22-25. European companies interested to participate as an exhibitor in 2024 can contact Cindy Collez:
