Environmentally conscious and future-proof
At Van Besouw, we use only the best materials. When developing new products, there are two choices. Either natural materials, or the best synthetic products. Always ecologically responsible.
For Van Besouw, sustainability consists of two important elements. First, of course, the raw materials. But just as important is the lifespan. A Van Besouw has a longer life than an average carpet. That makes all the difference!
Economically and ecologically.
