As you’ve likely gathered from our name, flooring is very important to us. Indeed, it constitutes our livelihood which very much depends on the quality of our products and the service we offer.
With more than 20 years of experience in the contemporary commercial flooring industry, we know a thing or two about what makes great flooring. In fact, we work with an array of sectors: public, healthcare, education, retail and hospitality and sports and leisure. We even provide beautiful and hard-wearing flooring for the home.
There are many kinds of industries, of course, and we’re able to cater for them all. Here are some examples of the best commercial flooring options and their applications:
Vinyl: A popular choice for a wide range of industries because of its cost-effectiveness, durability, resistance to water and low maintenance requirements. Vinyl is a flexible solution, especially since it can be used to mimic other flooring materials, such as wood panelling, or stone or ceramic tiles.
Vinyl flooring is widely used in a number of sectors, including education, leisure, retail, healthcare and heavy industry.
Linoleum: Often confused with vinyl, linoleum is made from naturally occurring and biodegradable materials, including wood flour, ground cork dust and solidified linseed oil. Just like vinyl, linoleum is highly durable, long lasting, water resistant and easy to clean. It’s also available in a wide range of styles and patterns.
Linoleum is a popular choice for public and private sectors alike, such as schools and hospitals.
Rubber: Slip-resistant and highly durable while offering a cushioned surface, rubber flooring is a great option for gyms, playrooms, showers, bathrooms, educational environments, health-providing industries and even garages.
Concrete: As you’d expect, concrete flooring is extremely durable. It’s also highly adaptable and can be treated with a wide variety of aesthetic finishes, and due to its sheer resilience, it’s extensively used in warehouses, retail spaces and heavy industrial environments.
Ceramic: Ceramic tiles which possess a high PEI (Porcelain Enamel Institute) rating are particularly robust and stain-resistant. They’re very easy to clean too, all of which makes ceramic flooring ideal for use in hospitality, food-based industries and healthcare.
Hardwood: Arguably the most elegant of all flooring solutions, hardwood has proven to be especially popular in recent years, across an array of sectors – and in the home, of course. While hardwood is hardwearing, it isn’t scratch resistant. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing, however – indeed, it’s the sort of thing that adds character to an environment. In any case, since it’s a natural material, wood requires more nurturing than many other surfaces – and it’s well worth the effort.
Carpet: The good old carpet: it’s been around longer than you might think, certainly more than 2,000 years, and it remains popular to this day. Carpet flooring can come as a single piece, carefully cut to fit specific spaces, or it can consist of numerous tiles. Carpet tiles in particular are easy to install and replace, and the very best examples offer high absorption levels. Carpet comes in an array of patterns and designs and it’s most often used in hospitality, retail and office environments – not to mention homes up and down the country.
