G.T.Design introduces Flat Out, the new collection of rugs designed by Deanna Comellini for both indoor and outdoor spaces, which redefines the concept of functional elegance. Made from recycled and recyclable P.E.T, this line stands out for its perfect balance of sustainability, refinement and durability. Each rug is handcrafted on traditional wooden looms, using P.E.T derived from recycled plastic bottles.This sustainable choice ensures a low environmental impact production, while the tight-knit weave guarantees excellent resistance to wear, weather conditions and bacterial contamination.
The production of rugs from recycled P.E.T helps reduce the amount of plastic sent to landfills, as approximately 25 plastic bottles (1.5 liters each) are needed to produce one kilogram of P.E.T yarn. This process saves up to 60-100 megajoules of energy compared to using virgin P.E.T and reduces CO2 emissions by about 1.3 kg per kilogram of yarn produced, contributing to the reduction of the carbon footprint in the textile industry.
Each Flat Out rug therefore represents a new life for plastic bottles, transforming them into strikingly aesthetic and functional design elements. The compact and durable structure, along with the technical yarn, ensures elasticity, stability and longevity, making FlatOut ideal not only for indoor space but especially for outdoor areas, including patios, terraces, pool edges and high-traffic zones.
Each rug can be custom-made to measure, with a maximum width of 4 meters and is also available in around shape to meet specific design needs. Characterized by a melange texture that evokes the tones of marble and sand, the collection is available in four color variations — two shades of brown and two shades of gray, all complemented by matching borders.
With Flat Out, G.T.Design demonstrates that design and sustainability can intertwine in an innovative and long-lasting proposal. Each rug becomes a symbol of respect for the environment and a distinctive element capable of enriching any space with timeless elegance.
