Since the establishment of Empire Carpets International in 2006, the company has continuously invested in its growth. After a first move from Kuurne to Hulste in 2011 due to a necessary expansion of the production capacity, Empire Carpets International is ready for a new chapter in their growth story.

With the current project, two new warehouses will be built on the existing site together with new offices. The concept was developed by architectural office Keunen and enhances the future-oriented, dynamic vision of Empire Carpets International.

The most modern logistic facilities will be set up in the two warehouses to boost transport and freight handling on the site. The additional storage space for raw materials gives Empire Carpets International more opportunities in the purchasing policy. The expansion of storage space for finished products ensures that the needs of all customers can be met.

The offices will also be fully renovated. Throughout the years, both the design team and the commercial team have grown steadily. The new offices should support this growth and should provide a pleasant workplace for the entire team and all future colleagues. In the construction project, sustainable materials and techniques are used, from solar panels on the roof to energy recuperating elevators. Empire Carpets International does not only want to realize sustainable growth, they want to achieve this in a socially responsible manner. Therefore, it has been very consciously chosen for energy efficient and climate neutral technologies

This project offers a lot of benefits to employees, suppliers, customers and also to Empire Carpets International itself. They hope for a successful progress of the project and are very enthusiastic about the future.
