Emporia, Malmö

Through our partnership with Herrljunga Terrazzo AB, Matting AB supplied all the entrance mats for Emporia’s entrances. We opted for aluminium section mats with ribbed inserts. An effective, durable, rollable and attractive mat. The mat can be made to any desired shape. Emporia was opened in autumn 2012.

Some facts about Emporia

The building was designed by Wingårdh Arkitektkontor, through Gert Wingårdh. An architectural competition was held in 2007 where the company contributed to the proposal which was subsequently chosen.
