BIID Awards Sponsor Havwoods: So Much More Than Flooring
Havwoods for all your wood surface needs
Havwoods is the headline sponsor for the BIID Interior Design Awards’ again this year, proudly supporting the very best of British interior design.
Havwoods’ journey started nearly 50 years ago as a small family business growing into a global company with presence today on three continents. The Havwoods products can be seen in the most prestige hotels, the finest restaurants, retail and workspaces, and luxury private residencies around the world.
2024 has been a whirlwind year for Havwoods, in a positive way, as the company has further expanded their wood surface offering beyond flooring. With an array of wood surfaces suitable for both commercial or residential interiors, Havwoods’ collections combine the very best in style and functionality offering both traditional and contemporary designs in a vast range of colours and patterns suitable for floors, walls and ceilings.
Stunning Elegante veneers
Elegante is one of the latest collections by Havwoods, a carefully curated range of intricate surface profiles. Offering versatility and flexibility, this groundbreaking collection offers architects, designers and residential customers the opportunity to create stunning designs such as feature walls. Elegante can even be applied to curved surfaces too such as cabinetry and furniture. The products are made from reconstituted Italian ALPI veneer that comes from Ayous trees. A tropical tree native to West and Central Africa, the Ayous tree is fast-growing and sustainably produced, offering a grain neutral timber that can be easily coloured and processed to create beautiful surfaces that are versatile, flexible and truly eye-catching.
Purepanel 3D with unique designs
PurePanel 3D incorporates all the core elements of Havwoods’ standard PurePanel collection. The deep three-dimensional textures, geometric embossed surfaces and organic shapes create unique design options. This collection can be used for a wide range of applications such as wall and ceiling coverings, interior doors and cabinetry, in other words they are suitable for both decorative and functional purposes. The designs include warm, earthy tones and wood-effect cabinetry inspired by Scandi design.
H Collection for quality and affordability
Havwoods' H Collection is the perfect blend of quality wood flooring at an almost unbelievable lower price point. Offering durability and performance at an unbeatable price, H Collection is designed to withstand the demands of both commercial and residential areas. With 26 new colours, available in both plank and herringbone formats, there has never been so much choice.
