Ege Carpets

Ege Carpets is one of Europe’s largest textile flooring manufacturers. They approached Novicell with an aim to create a new website that suited their customer’s needs and search behaviour perfectly. Ege Carpet’s new corporate site is designed to inspire action and optimise the user journey at every point.

Beautiful carpets for a sustainable future

For more than 80 years, the Danish company Ege Carpets has been delivering quality carpets to buildings all over the world. Today, Ege Carpets is one of Europe's largest manufacturers of quality carpets and primarily supplies carpets to hotels, office buildings, shops, shopping centres, and institutions. The spirit of Ege Carpets is to design beautiful carpets for a sustainable future. Aesthetics, top quality, and sustainability were therefore keywords for the project when Ege Carpets decided to create a new website in 2019. Novicell was chosen for the entire task – from pre-analysis to design, backend, and frontend – and the result is egecarpets.com.

Audience Specific Design

Ege Carpets’ target group is primarily B2B customers with an eye for design: architects, designers, hotel managers and carpet fitters. With a visually orientated target audience, a key task for Ege Carpets’ new website was to inspire these customers to incorporate their products into their existing designs. We created a website with a uniquely creative experience. There are many opportunities for web visitors to get a closer look at a rug/ carpet and create their own personal vision of the product in use. For example, users can position a rug in various locations to see what it would look like in a hotel room or in open office landscapes.

Pre-analysis was critical

We began the process with a thorough preliminary analysis to address the specific concerns of Ege Carpets’ site visitors. The results indicated that Ege Carpets must cater for two very different B2B user types: Those who want inspiration and suggestions for rug types, patterns and colours for a current project Those with a firm idea of their desired product and who need to be able to order a carpet sample, find information and download specifications quickly and efficiently. They must find it easy to shop with Ege Carpets

THE RESULTS

What we delivered

3D visualisation tool

To enhance the website’s UX, a 3D visualisation tool was integrated to allow users to design a carpet, apply different colours and receive a close-up of a product by mouse hover. This tool would enable users to detect any problems from the early stages, once again satisfying the needs of the visually orientated customer.

Marketing automation

The new website needed to enable earlier and closer contact with customers. For this reason, we facilitated an integration with Ege Carpets’ Marketing Automation System, HubSpot. When potential customers order a carpet sample, for example, the integration triggers a message to an Ege Carpets’ employee who can help the customer further their selection.
