A world-leading Swedish design company specialising in Climate-neutral floors & rugs with zero climate impact since 1949
About us
Bolon is driven by an indomitable will to change the view of the conventional – whether it is a square view of flooring or an antiquated attitude towards entrepreneurship. A will that has taken the enterprise from simple rag rugs to floorings praised by the world’s leading couturiers, designers and architects. Our Swedish headquarters is led by sisters Annica and Marie Eklund who are the company’s third generation of entrepreneurs. Their mission is to never stagnate but to reach for the stars with confident expectations. In Stockholm in 1949, the sisters’ grandfather, Nils-Erik Eklund, had the brilliant idea of using textile waste from the neighbouring factory to manufacture woven rag rugs. The company’s name is a combination of the first and last letters of the Swedish words for cotton and nylon. The enterprise was handed down to Annica’s and Marie’s parents, Lars and Monica, in the 1960s. They continued developing the rag rug concept and created a completely new business niche – awning mats for caravans. The third generation of the family, Marie and Annica, took over the enterprise in 2003 and embarked on the journey that would shape Bolon for the future. Today, Bolon is a design-led business that draws influences from the world of fashion to produce unique climate neutral woven floors for creative and inspiring environments with zero climate impact. Bolon UK is based in Clerkenwell, London and its aim is to bring the brand's Swedish heritage and design expertise to the UK market.

🧩 We love working with flooring manufacturers and contractors who understand that adhesive-free installation is key to flooring circularity Here, BOLON UK discuss how IOBAC MagTabs and Tab-it are essential components in promoting a circular economy. Bolon is committed to sustainability with innovative solutions that minimize environmental impact. All Bolon flooring and rugs are climate neutral, made with 68% recycled content, and have zero climate impact (with zero offsets). #wovenvinyl #sustainableflooring #circulareconomy #adhesivefree #flooring #commercialinteriors

Take a look at our latest collaboration with BOLON UK... "The client's vision was to create a best-in-class experience for both visitors and staff. They wanted to dedicate certain areas of the building to these two user groups while ensuring the new workspace felt like a natural evolution of their previous office. Retaining beloved design features and integrating elements that support wellness and inclusivity were key inspirations." Thank you as always Estefania Dickinson Ramos and the whole BOLON UK team for your support. Cleo https://lnkd.in/eS9MrDEE
