Our
heritage, the talent of the Flemish weavers... Even in the Middle
Ages, Flemish textile products have an excellent reputation throughout
Europe.
Everyone envies the talent of the Flemish weavers. Nobody is their
equal in combining beauty and quality.
Within this world of know-how and creativity the great Flemish
carpet tradition grows.
The beautiful city of Kortrijk, cradle of Louis De Poortere, becomes
the centre of this industry.

Each
project is another step, each step is another conquest... When Louis
De Poortere established in Kortrijk the company he named after himself,
he can rely on the solid experience acquired since 1859 by the family
company De Poortere Frères, cloth manufacturers and merchants.
But Louis De Poortere's innate desire for innovation forces him
to explore new horizons.
He starts designing carpets with Oriental patterns which immediately
enchant the British market.
Year after year, Louis De Poortere carries on with his innovations:
he diversifies his collections, explores new production techniques
and multiplies his creations. |
