147 jobs saved after administrators conclude sales of Domus and Melrose subsidiaries

Chris Pole and Will Wright of Interpath were appointed joint administrators of Domus Tiles Limited on 27 October 2026. Immediately following their appointment, they sold the business and assets to Domus Group London Limited, a company owned and led by Domus’ existing management team. As part of the transaction, all 112 Domus employees will transfer to the purchaser. Mr Pole and Mr Wright were also appointed joint administrators of Melrose Interiors Limited on 26 October 2026. Based in Bradford, Melrose Interiors is a specialist manufacturer, importer and distributor of rugs and associated flooring products, trading under the Melrose, My Melrose and Relay brands. Immediately following their appointment, the administrators sold certain business and assets to the Jain family group of UK distribution companies.

As part of the transaction, 35 employees will transfer to the purchaser. Unfortunately, the Spectrum business unit was excluded from the transaction, the administrators said.

"As a result, and with regret, the 19 employees engaged in that part of the business were made redundant following the joint administrators’ appointment.”

Mr Pole, joint administrator to Domus Tiles Limited and Melrose Interiors Limited, said: “We are pleased to have concluded these transactions, which safeguard the future of Domus and Melrose, both successful and highly respected parts of the wider Headlam Group. The transactions ensure continuity of service for customers, protect ongoing relationships with suppliers and, importantly, secure the jobs of 147 employees across the two companies. We would like to thank all of the staff for their professionalism and commitment during what has been a very challenging period, and we wish both businesses every success under their new ownership.”
