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.

As a photographer and creative director, Annica Eklund is constantly inspired by her surroundings. The campaign images for Elements were produced at the ever-changing ocean in Torekov in close collaboration with Malin Qvänstedt. Together, they explored the magic of nature and fashion, letting the Elements in with nature as the perfect backdrop. Visit the Bolon Showroom at 2 Northburgh St, London or book an appointment via Sales@flooring-concepts.co.uk to experience the new collection. https://lnkd.in/dWGeJj62

We're delighted to announce the highly appreciated Elements collection has been expanded to 12 new colours, making the collection even more versatile. Elements features a balanced, natural melange look in various tones of beige and grey, drawing inspiration from nature. The calm base colours and Scandinavian ambience make it exceptional for diverse interiors. The collection consists of 12 articles that create a contemporary design with a warm and welcoming feeling to any space. Its calm, natural aesthetic means it can be used to great effect across large areas, creating a sense of unity in spaces of all sizes. #bolonofficial #bolonelements https://lnkd.in/dWGeJj62
