Couristan 5714/0136 URBANE Gatesby 90-Inch by 129-Inch Polypropylene Area Rug, Tan/Terra Cotta

Showcasing a truly original trademark aesthetic, Couristan’s Urbane Collection brings artistic flair to outdoor entertaining places and cozy indoor spaces. Offering a refreshing take on traditional flat woven rugs, the surface of each Urbane design features a diagonal flat weave with a wide-ribbed effect. Adding to this texture, the flat woven background is enlivened with cut-pile accents that form various motifs. From the beautiful floral print to the sassy cheetah skin, the details in each pattern have a meticulous three-dimensional quality which is achieved through a high-quality power-loomed construction. Meant to be enjoyed both inside and outside the home, Urbane area rugs are woven entirely of 100-percent fiber-enhanced Courtron polypropylene and are mold and mildew resistant. Strengthened with a UV stabilizer, the rich colors will resist fading typically caused by sun exposure and other harsh weather elements. Durable enough to be displayed in the backyard, yet stylish enough to be used in interior foyers, dining areas and dens, the Urbane Collection fuses modern art influences with innovative weaving techniques to create an invigorating new look that is full of personality and presence.

The 2007-2012 World Outlook for Tufted Carpet and Rugs Made from Polypropylene Face Yarn

This study covers the world outlook for tufted carpet and rugs made from polypropylene face yarn across more than 200 countries. For each year reported, estimates are given for the latent demand, or potential industry earnings (P.I.E.), for the country in question (in millions of U.S. dollars), the percent share the country is of the region and of the globe. These comparative benchmarks allow the reader to quickly gauge a country vis-Ã -vis others. Using econometric models which project fundamental economic dynamics within each country and across countries, latent demand estimates are created. This report does not discuss the specific players in the market serving the latent demand, nor specific details at the product level. The study also does not consider short-term cyclicalities that might affect realized sales. The study, therefore, is strategic in nature, taking an aggregate and long-run view, irrespective of the players or products involved.
The 2007-2012 Outlook for Tufted Carpet and Rugs Made from Polypropylene Face Yarn in India

This study covers the latent demand outlook for tufted carpet and rugs made from polypropylene face yarn across the states, union territories and cities of India. Latent demand (in millions of U.S. dollars), or potential industry earnings (P.I.E.) estimates are given across some 5,000 cities in India. For each city in question, the percent share the city is of itâs state or union territory and of India as a whole is reported. These comparative benchmarks allow the reader to quickly gauge a city vis-Ã -vis others. This statistical approach can prove very useful to distribution and/or sales force strategies. Using econometric models which project fundamental economic dynamics within each state or union territory and city, latent demand estimates are created for tufted carpet and rugs made from polypropylene face yarn. This report does not discuss the specific players in the market serving the latent demand, nor specific details at the product level. The study also does not consider short-term cyclicalities that might affect realized sales.

The 2007-2012 Outlook for Tufted Carpet and Rugs Made from Polypropylene Face Yarn in Greater China

This study covers the latent demand outlook for tufted carpet and rugs made from polypropylene face yarn across the regions of Greater China, including provinces, autonomous regions (Guangxi, Nei Mongol, Ningxia, Xinjiang, Xizang – Tibet), municipalities (Beijing, Chongqing, Shanghai, and Tianjin), special administrative regions (Hong Kong and Macau), and Taiwan (all hereafter referred to as âregionsâ). Latent demand (in millions of U.S. dollars), or potential industry earnings (P.I.E.) estimates are given across some 1,100 cities in Greater China. For each major city in question, the percent share the city is of the region and of Greater China is reported. Each major city is defined as an area of âeconomic populationâ, as opposed to the demographic population within a legal geographic boundary. For many cities, the economic population is much larger that the population within the city limits; this is especially true for the cities of the Western regions. For the coastal regions, cities which are close to other major cities or which represent, by themselves, a high percent of the regional population, actual city-level population is closer to the economic population (e.g. in Beijing). Based on this âeconomicâ definition of population, comparative benchmarks allow the reader to quickly gauge a cityâs marketing and distribution value vis-Ã -vis others. This exercise is quite useful for persons setting up distribution centers or sales force strategies. Using econometric models which project fundamental economic dynamics within each region and city of influence, latent demand estimates are created for tufted carpet and rugs made from polypropylene face yarn. This report does not discuss the specific players in the market serving the latent demand, nor specific details at the product level. The study also does not consider short-term cyclicalities that might affect realized sales. The study, therefore, is strategic in nature, taking an aggregate and long-run view, irrespective of the players or products involved.
The 2007-2012 Outlook for Tufted Carpet and Rugs Made from Polypropylene Face Yarn in the United States

This study covers the latent demand outlook for tufted carpet and rugs made from polypropylene face yarn across the states and cities of the United States. Latent demand (in millions of U.S. dollars), or potential industry earnings (P.I.E.) estimates are given some 12,919 cities across in the United States. For each city in question, the percent share the city is of itâs state and of the United States is reported. These comparative benchmarks allow the reader to quickly gauge a city vis-Ã -vis others. This statistical approach can prove very useful to distribution and/or sales force strategies. Using econometric models which project fundamental economic dynamics within each state and city, latent demand estimates are created for tufted carpet and rugs made from polypropylene face yarn.

WHAT IS LATENT DEMAND AND THE P.I.E.?
The concept of latent demand is rather subtle. The term latent typically refers to something that is dormant, not observable, or not yet realized. Demand is the notion of an economic quantity that a target population or market requires under different assumptions of price, quality, and distribution, among other factors. Latent demand, therefore, is commonly defined by economists as the industry earnings of a market when that market becomes accessible and attractive to serve by competing firms. It is a measure, therefore, of potential industry earnings (P.I.E.) or total revenues (not profit) if a market is served in an efficient manner. It is typically expressed as the total revenues potentially extracted by firms. The âmarketâ is defined at a given level in the value chain. There can be latent demand at the retail level, at the wholesale level, the manufacturing level, and the raw materials level (the P.I.E. of higher levels of the value chain being always smaller than the P.I.E. of levels at lower levels of the same value chain, assuming all levels maintain minimum profitability).
The latent demand for tufted carpet and rugs made from polypropylene face yarn is not actual or historic sales. Nor is latent demand future sales. In fact, latent demand can be lower either lower or higher than actual sales if a market is inefficient (i.e., not representative of relatively competitive levels). Inefficiencies arise from a number of factors, including the lack of international openness, cultural barriers to consumption, regulations, and cartel-like behavior on the part of firms. In general, however, latent demand is typically larger than actual sales in a country market.
For reasons discussed later, this report does not consider the notion of âunit quantitiesâ, only total latent revenues (i.e., a calculation of price times quantity is never made, though one is implied). The units used in
