The GREEN COLLECTION again successfully arranged the special display at DOMOTEX 2024. The show revolved around sustainability, circular economy and environmental protection in the carpet and flooring industry. Centre of the special display was the award ceremony of the GREEN COLLECTION Award . On January 11 the winners were announced in a festive setting in front of a large audience.
