New Product adds Dimension and Brilliance to Corporate, Hospitality & Retail Segments
[City of Industry, CA – October 9, 2012] Iconic Intensity is the next generation of Bentley Prince Street’s acclaimed product, Iconic™. Featuring a reimagined and progressive color line, Iconic Intensity represents a bold arrangement of stripes crafted with various textures. Iconic Intensity is available in broadloom, area rugs and three carpet tile sizes (18×36 in, 24×24 in and 36×36 in) for modular creativity. Its wonderful scale and luxurious finish makes a grand statement in hospitality and retail environments, while its monochromatic nature delivers sophistication to corporate space.
“Iconic Intensity exemplifies our legacy of beauty and performance while addressing the needs of the marketplace,” says Anthony Minite, president and CEO of Bentley Prince Street. “Our design team really listened to our customers and created something bold and contemporary, yet sophisticated.”
Iconic Intensity was introduced at NeoCon 2012 in a variety of eye-catching, custom colors. Its smooth, frieze and velvet texture designs alternate between wide and thin stripes, celebrating Bentley Prince Street’s vast heritage of textiles. Iconic Intensity is opulent in broadloom, chic in carpet tile and edgy when modular accent colors are intermixed.
“When we previewed this product at NeoCon the feedback from the design community was that this product really hit the mark,” says Valerie Ottaviano, vice president of product design. “We knew we had something special with Iconic, so we decided to take that product to a new level with velvety texture and more intense color.”
Iconic Intensity features Ultron® cf nylon 6,6 by Ascend®; high quality fiber delivers superior resistance to crushing, matting, soil penetration and wear; Protekt® stain protection and Bentley Prince Street approved antimicrobial treatment.
