Commercial Carpets
A heavy-duty version of what is commonly used in domestic scenarios, contract carpet is ideal for offices, shops, schools, light industrial and communal areas such as staircases and hallways. It is exceptionally durable and easy to clean.
Unlike traditionally fit carpet, contract carpet is permanently bonded to the floor using an appropriate adhesive that prevents any ribbing or lifting in the carpet.
Easy to install and available in a wide array of colours, designs, and many different textures, contract carpet can provide a bit of luxury with good acoustic and underfoot qualities.
Some business owners are sceptical of choosing carpet for commercial flooring, as vinyl, hardwood, and other options have their many benefits. However, carpet also has plenty of reasons why it is a good option for office flooring, shop flooring and other business locations.
Why Choose Carpet For Commercial Flooring?
- Style And Design: When it comes to carpet, there is a vast range of styles, designs and colours to suit any business. Having such a huge amount of variety and options make it easy to find a carpet that fits beautifully with your business décor. With everything from bright, vibrant colours and patterns to subdued, neutral tones, you can create any vibe you want for your commercial flooring.
- Durability: High-quality carpets are extremely durable and long-lasting, making them ideal for office flooring or other business premises. When you choose a high-end carpet, there will be no need to replace it quickly as it will last many years. Carpet is a good choice for high-traffic areas as it can be very hardwearing, especially those with a low pile.
- Improved Air Quality: One huge benefit of carpet for commercial flooring that is often overlooked is improved air quality. Carpets will trap dust, allergens and particles within its fibres, keeping them out of the air. As carpets are regularly vacuumed, these particles are removed from the premise completely, keeping it clean and fresh.
- Energy Saving: Not only is carpet a comfortable and cosy choice for commercial flooring, but it can save your business money. Carpets work to retain heat in a room, making a saving on energy usage as less heating is required. They work as a natural thermal insulator for your business, offering energy saving over hardwood floor alternatives.
- Reduced Noise Levels: Noise pollution can be a big thing in a business environment, whether it is a store, office or warehouse. Hard flooring can be extremely loud, especially in office blocks that span over many floors. Carpet enhances sound absorption and reduces the impact of noise within the business.
- Easy To Clean: Carpets are very easy to keep clean and well maintained, as they often just require a regular vacuum without the need for scrubbing, mopping or steaming. When it comes to choosing commercial flooring, cleanliness and ease of cleaning are vital aspects to consider.
Carpet Tiles
Carpet tiles are perfect for any busy work environment and is often the go-to flooring choice for businesses and workplaces across the UK.
Carpet tile installation has many advantages for businesses. Firstly carpet tiles are highly durable and can withstand heavy foot traffic and daily wear and tear. Fitting carpet tiles can also contribute to a quieter work environment due to the sound-absorbing properties of carpet tiles; this can further improve concentration within the office.
Furthermore, their easy maintenance is another advantage, and damaged or stained tiles can be replaced individually, which saves time and money. Overall, you could say carpet tile installation offers functionality, aesthetics and practicality for businesses.
Carpet tiles are a popular choice for business premises, these are some of the main advantages of choosing carpet tiles:
- Durable: One of the main reasons carpet tiles are used for commercial flooring such as office flooring is that they are extremely hardwearing and durable. They are specifically designed to last a long time and can be relied on for high traffic areas where traditional carpets would easily become worn out. Carpet tiles are very heavy duty and can withstand much more than many wall to wall carpets can.
- Replaceable: Most commercial flooring requires complete replacement if an area becomes damaged or worn, but carpet tiles give the ability to replace just one section at a time. If one tile becomes damaged, stained or worn, that single tile can be replaced with a new one, without the need for entirely new flooring. This can save a business a huge amount of money and time as high traffic areas can be replaced more often than low traffic ones.
- Easy Maintenance: Some business owners worrying about using carpet for their commercial flooring because they can be high maintenance and take a lot of work. Carpet tiles are low pile and only require regular hoovering or sweeping, with the option to deep clean occasionally or as needed. Single carpet tiles can even be removed, thoroughly cleaned and refitted easily, if there are stubborn stains to deal with.
- Variety: When you choose carpet tiles for your commercial flooring, you will have the freedom to choose any colour, design or style you want. Multiple different colours can be used in conjunction with each other, and there is no need to have the entire office flooring just one colour.
Barrier & Entrance Mats
Barrier and entrance matting can be an essential install for many commercial properties, reducing soiling and extending the life of any installed floorings and reducing chance of slips due to any water being walked in.
There is a wide choice of matting available. Some of the most common are coir matting which is made from the natural husk of the coconut, hippo matting, which are synthetic and ribbed with a rubber backing and engineered matting systems which are metal framed and require a qualified expert to install. They also come as easy to install tiles which are similar to carpet tiles.
Barrier matting would normally be installed to any entrance, whether that be from the street or from the entrance to your office floor and will save your freshly installed floor becoming dirty or wet and potentially prolong its lifetime.

The entrance of your business is one of the most essential areas, and entrance matting brings a range of benefits to any commercial space:
- Cleaning And Maintenance: One of the key functions of heavy duty matting for any business is that it can help to eliminate debris and dirt getting in the building. When a commercial space has a lot of footfall and people coming in and out from the street, there will be a lot of muck being carried through on shoes. Barrier matting stops this dirt at the entrance, protecting the rest of your commercial flooring.
- Non-Slip Flooring: The safety of staff and customers is a top priority for the majority of businesses, and barrier matting can help improve safety due to its non-slip properties. Entrance mats which absorb excess moisture and water can prevent slips and trips within your business.
- Durable And Hard Wearing: Your commercial flooring can be protected using barrier matting, which is excellent for improving the longevity of the rest of your flooring. As dirt and moisture is stopped at the door and your other flooring will not be as damaged and worn.
